There has been one thing on my mind lately. Last night we took a tuk tuk ride around town. I have been on the lookout for trafficking around here. In Cambodia it is really not right in front of you. I did see it last night though. There are usually about five women sitting in front of local restaurants waiting for customers. Other teammates have also seen it in the form of Western men surrounded by at least five teenagers.
This is still the issue I am here to fight. It was hard to laugh last night after seeing how some of these girls are FORCED to spend their nights. Also, I couldnot get the images of the girls at the orphanage out of my mind. I was thinking of their innocence towards the issue. The orphanage girls are there because they were at risk of getting sold into human trafficking by one of their family members; ususally their fathers or uncles. There is even an anti-human trafficking sign in front of the orphanage.
So long story short please pray for the girls I am unable to help, the girls I am helping, and me. I feel guilty enjoying myself knowing their are girls here living such violent lives. I want to help them so badly, but I just do not know how to…
Love You All
