stopthetraffik


stop the traffik is a HUGE coalition campaign, global in scope - grassroots in nature... they aim to urge governments and everyday people to help end human trafficking because PEOPLE SHOULDN'T BE BOUGHT AND SOLD. Amen.
The founder of stt is Steve Chalke - a legend, theologian, extensive writer (over 40 books!), fundraiser (world record holder for raising the most money in one event - London marathon... 1.25 million pounds!)... read more here:
anyway, we've got heaps of events happening early in January to kick off this year with a huge bang for the fight against trafficking. Prayer slave chain on the 12th, GOD IN THE CITY, Mission on the edge and Australia's largest chocolate fondue party at Federation Square in the center of Melbourne... not to mention Jan. 9th (a dinner updating anyone interested in the global impact and strategy of Stop The Traffik!). If you'd like to come email me (danielle.strickland@gmail.com).
Looking forward to a new Kingdom coming soon where people won't be bought and sold... anyone else interested?
