Human Sexual Trafficking
14
Between 700,000 and 4,000,000 people are trafficked annually worldwide – many of these people are women and children who have been sexually trafficked.
15
Human Sexual Trafficking is a form of slavery. It is when human beings are sold and bought for the purposes of sexual exploitation.
16
Over the last 10 years, the numbers of women and children (who) have been trafficked have multiplied so that they are now on par with estimates of the numbers of Africans who were enslaved in the 16 th and 17 th centuries.” Laura Lederer, Harvard University, 2000
17
At least 2500 foreign women and girls are coerced into joining the Canadian sex trade each year by human traffickers.
18
There are also many Canadian women and girls being trafficked within Canada. Aboriginal women and girls are being trafficked at horrifying, and disproportionate rates.
19
Trafficking is always involuntary, because even when consent is achieved, it is only through some form of fraud or deception, abduction or abuse of power.
20
90% of people sexually trafficked or prostituted are women and girls. Most of these women come from the South and East.
21

25
Pray for families For Safety For acceptance and forgiveness

Lord, help us to love you in the stranger and the refugee. Help us to love ourselves enough to believe that we can change things for the better. Help us to love as you have loved us. Amen.
