The Lord will answer prayer as we come together on this state-wide initiative to combat trafficking, by locking arms in solidarity, and battle against those who seek to abuse our women and children. It doesn’t matter if you were at Calvary Chapel Boulder City, or one the thousands who viewed the “trafficking no more” documentary at home, we have collectively began war in the spiritual realm, i.e. on our knees through prayer… The battle has begun, I implore you, to please remain watchful in your homes, work, or schools, for anyone that may be stalking around to “turn-out” our communities. The perpetrators are banking on us to collectively go back to our homes and grow weary of the fight and eventually, settle back into our every day lives; like so many times before. So keep on praying, and keep the conversation alive in your hearts and minds; on behalf of a safe environment to live and play in. KNOWLEDGE IS POWER: stock up on pamphlets and literature from organizations that are on the front-lines, like the State Attorney General’s office, local Law Enforcement Agencies or click on the links below. Lastly,

BE PROACTIVE: ready to help a victim, if or when the time comes, by attending local meetings, and staying informed. Thank you again, for participating last night! Let’s keep it going for as long as it takes to get the message across–“Not happening on our watch!”

Today we celebrate the birthday of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and for me, it brings to mind the word “Freedom.” Freedom means: Independence, liberation from slavery or restraint or from the power of another. Yet, despite the adoption of treaties and laws prohibiting slavery, evidence shows that many men, women, and children continue to live in modern-day slavery through the scourge of trafficking in persons.

On Wednesday, January 22, at 7:30 p.m.every major local TV network will switch from their regular programming to air a locally produced documentary on sex trafficking. The 30-minute movie opens with a viewer discretion advisory and follows it up with victim accounts and eye-opening details about sex trafficking in Nevada. It’s not meant to be easy viewing but to instead, raise awareness about a serious issue in Nevada and the nation. The age of viewers should be 12 years of age an older.

*Calvary Chapel Boulder City will interrupt their mid-week service to show the “Trafficking no more” documentary, on Wednesday the 22nd of January. Please make it a priority to come out as a community, to show your solidarity, on behalf of those who are deprived of their basic freedoms. Calvary Chapel Boulder City is located at 1000 Nevada Way, Suite 207, Boulder City NV 89005. You are encouraged to invite neighbors, friends, and especially the Youth, here in Boulder City.

Finally, please be in place at 7:00pm, as the showing time will be the same time as the TV networks, 7:30pm.

Thank you!
