Amazing Grace Movie

Real quick post, just to say that one of the producers of the Amazing Grace movie was in church talking about the movie and the UK abolition of the slave trade as well as the modern day slave trade. If you havent heard about this movie check out the link here. Also, check out the page dedicated to the practical aspect of the movie's message The Amazing Change (click Amazing Change or the banner at the top of the page). It has tons of ideas and resources for information about the modern issue of slavery in the world as well as some resources and ways to make a difference. One of my personal choices was the IJM Prayer Guide for the Abolition of Slavery. Click on the name to download it, it gives some practical ways to pray for the work that IJM does in the area of slavery, forced prostitution, and bonded labor. Also, if you decide to start praying for this arena pray for my friend Marianne, she is working in Asia providing social work services to vicitims of these issues of justice.
