121 has established a partnership with International Justice Mission to launch a new mission effort in Cambodia as the primary global component of the Amos Project.

• Trafficking is the illegal trading of men, women and children for the purpose of exploitation. 
• In Cambodia, between 15-30% of those in brothels are sexually exploited minors.
• International Justice Mission has brought rescue to more than 1,000 victims of forced prostitution and more than 2,000 victims of slavery.

These videos will give you a better understanding of the work of IJM. WARNING: IJM's work in Cambodia involves exposing and combating child sex trafficking. There are no explicit images in these clips, but the content does show the reality:

As the specifics of 121's partnership in Cambodia are developed, here are ways we can be involved right away:

• Educate ourselves! These are complex issues. IJM has excellent resources to root our convictions biblically and learn how to meaningfully engage these issues that matter to God so much. Go to www.ijm.org and search under the RESOURCES menu for books, downloads, and updates. 
• Prayer is absolutely essential in this work!  Become an IJM Prayer Partner and receive weekly emails to pray for current needs.
• Give toward and pray for IJM's ongoing work by becoming an IJM Freedom Partner. Choose how to direct a $50 monthly donation, receive confidential reports and prayer updates, and participate in an annual conference call with Gary Haugen, president of IJM.
• LifeGroups can be connected to IJM Cambodia field staff members for personal relationships, prayer, and encouragement.  

Christa Hayden was IJM's Cambodia Aftercare Director from 2005-2008 and now works at the U.S. headquarters. She will be guiding 121 in establishing a long-term partnership in Cambodia. Meet Christa 

Please begin to pray now for child victims of trafficking in Cambodia as well as IJM staff and other believers in this primarily Buddhist country. Pray that the Gospel of Jesus Christ would take root, that thousands would come to know and worship Him, and real transformation would be seen.
