![]() Have you heard of Operation Underground Railroad- O.U.R? Dare I say I'm like the average American that gets so caught up in my life and my little bubble that I keep blinders on to what I allow in my life. Yesterday rocked my socks, in a good way. Fifteen minutes was all it took for my heart to be broken and tears streaming and the fire lit in me to do more, to be a vessel for God and to not just be a sidelines person. I implore you to listen to this. I don't care what way you lean on the political spectrum, If you allow yourself an open mind and heart, the first fifteen minutes will rock you too. So what is Operation Underground Railroad? It was founded in 2013 by Tim Ballard, a former Special Agent for Department of Homeland Security. He now serves as the CEO, Founder and Jump Team Commander in working alongside the world's experts in extraction operations and in anti-child trafficking efforts to bring an end to child slavery. So what is an Abolitionist? It is the terminology used by O.U.R. to make a commitment to make a difference - to donate monthly. Even $5/month makes a difference. If you're not able to donate financially, there are still other ways to make a difference in the numerous ways to volunteer. If you'd like more information, check out their website- www.ourrescue.org There was also a great article recently about a Utah family stepping out to serve in a big way too!. Check it out- here. In addition, there is a film- The Abolitionists which is about the rescue of 57 children from sex slavery and the arrest and incarceration of 7 traffickers. Watch the trailer. Matthew 25:40- Go be Holy.Be.Youtiful, friends!
