Had dinner tonight with a sister that works with prostitutes down at one of the metro stations. She does not normally talk about her work, but she did tonight. A couple interesting things: the word for marry "casar" and the word for hunt "cazar" sound almost identical. I was confused for a while in the conversation as she was talking about the metro stations as a place that men hunt women to capture into prostitution. From what I gather, this sister works to help those that are in prostitution get the care they need, for them, for their children, etc and to help them get out of prostitution if and when possible. I wish I could have understood more of the conversation. Please pray for her and her work. And please pray for Mexico. I kept thinking that this kind of trafficking probably happens down the street from my house in Michigan, yet I am unaware. Please pray for those involved in the human slave trade, both the persons that are trafficked as well as the system and traffickers themselves. Also for a family that has had seven people murdered in their family and are in hiding themselves.
We met with another sister tonight, and got some helpful ideas about getting to know more of the families around us. Please pray for better interactions with the families, and the possible foundation of small group communities. Have a good night!
