Social Justice: Living right while righting wrongs

THIS POST IS ABOUT THE ARTICLE “CHILDREN FOR SALE” IN THE JANUARY ISSUE OF ‘WAR CRY‘ .

THE SALVATION ARMY IS IN 124 COUNTRIES AND HAS A LOT OF EXPERIENCE WITH THE NEED OF SOCIAL JUSTICE IN THE WORLD.  THIS ARTICLE TALKS ABOUT HOW GIRLS WHO ARE ONLY SIX YEARS OLD GO TO THE PARK WITH THEIR MOTHERS TO BE SOLD.

THE GOOD NEWS IN THIS CASE IS THAT THE SALVATION ARMY INTERVENED AND PAID THE MOTHER AN AGREED UPON AMOUNT AND THE GIRL WAS SPARED THE TRAGEDY THAT MANY GIRLS ARE NOT FORTUNATE TO ESCAPE. THIS GIRL WAS SENT TO FRANCE TO THE SAFEKEEPING OF A SINGLE FEMALE SALVATION ARMY OFFICER!

THIS WORK THAT THE SALVATION ARMY IS DOING IS WONDERFUL AND IS NOT NEW TO THE ITALIAN ASSOCIATION OF POPE JOHN THE XXIII WHO HAS BEEN DOING THESE TYPES OF INTERVENTIONS IN ITALY AND IN SEVERAL COUNTRIES GLOBALLY. RESCUING THE VULNERABLE FROM THE EVILS OF HUMAN TRAFFICKING, WHETHER IT BE IN THE FORM OF FORCED LABOR AS DR. BALES HAS BATTLED AGAINST OR IN FLORIDA WITH THE COALITION AGAINST HUMAN TRAFFICKING (ONE OF THE EARLIEST ORGANIZATIONS TO BATTLE HUMAN TRAFFICKING IN SW FL) OR IN YOUR OWN BACKYARD, MUST BE A PRIORITY.

PLEASE EDUCATE YOURSELF AND DO WHAT YOU CAN.  HUMAN TRAFFICKING IS THE WORLD’S SECOND LARGEST INTERNATIONAL CRIME, AFTER DRUG TRAFFICKING AND AHEAD OF ARMS SALES…

THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME TODAY!  BECAUSE HUMAN RIGHTS MATTER! TO ALL OF US.
