This may come as a surprise to most of you, but… I love grocery shopping. Well, actually wait.  Let me rephrase that.  I love food. In all seriousness though, I love getting to stroll through the aisles of Publix while basking in the vastness of…

• U N I T E D _______________________________________________________ On the surface, we may not seem to be brothers and sisters, but believe me - we are. . While our homelands, languages, and cultures may be different - our hearts continue to beat in rhythm to the same glorious tune. . Together we fight on one united front with our Heavenly Father above us, Jesus beside us, and the Holy Spirit within us. We have chosen to stand together for freedom, no matter what it takes. . Human Trafficking remains our common enemy while faith, hope, and love remain our war cry. . So like I said - we’re family, and we declare boldly by faith that: . Borders won’t block us. Fear shall not rock us. And the darkness can’t stop us. All in the name of Jesus. ❤️
Yesterday was our last full day in Nigeria! . The @mecaht team, Global Care & Response, and I (representing @stop_trafficking_of_people) had the exciting opportunity to teach and build relationships with about 70-100 psychologists from an organization called Secure The Future/SPY D FUTURE! Kyle Miller, from Global Care and Response led the charge by training up these passionate professionals in how to effectively use a Biblical Trauma Counseling Model with sex trafficking survivors (all based on the Beatitudes of Jesus found in Matthew 5). . Kyle, Anne Abok, and I also had the privilege of speaking/teaching about the importance of working on our own traumas as caregivers, fighting back practically and efficiently against human trafficking in Nigeria, and cultivating grace-based (and not shame-based) discipleship relationships with sex trafficking survivors throughout the healing, aftercare, and counseling process. And we finished strong with a Q&A session that covered lots of HT topics! . It was such a powerful day and one that I will cherish! #togetherforfreedom #stoptrafficking #enditmovement❌
• MeCAHT Conference (Nov 1-4th, 2018) . So grateful for this team. Our STOP family is one of a kind. These girls motivate me, inspire me, and challenge me to press on in this fight against human trafficking. I have learned so much from doing life with them, and they love me so well. . We all bring something different to the table - strengths, abilities, passions, and temperaments... and together our uniqueness blends into a beautiful picture of sisterhood community. It amazes me to know that the family of our Father knows no borders and has no exclusions. Every day I get the great privilege of standing side by side both physically and spiritually with these ladies for freedom’s sake! . Love you @stop_trafficking_of_people. #togetherforfreedom #stoptrafficking #notforsale #teamworkmakesthedreamwork #family #enditmovement❌ ❤️
