India: Girls rescued out of trafficking
Three girls from different states of India, sold off to brothels in Solapur city a few months ago, were rescued last week by Indian Rescue Mission (IRM), an organization that rescues minor girls forced into prostitution and offers justice and rehabilitation for these victims. These girls were rescued from a city hotel in a joint operation conducted by Indian Rescue Mission and Maharastra State police on October 28, 2010, after they had discovered the trafficking racket based on the investigations conducted by IRM. The police swung into action and arrested a lady brothel keeper and the lodge owner, along with other pimps who were engaged in forcing these girls into prostitution. Among the rescued girls, three were minors and were trafficked from different parts of the country. The girls told the police that they were sold to the brothels in the city and were forced to entertain clients who visited the brothel. Praise: God for the work of IRM and pray that the authorities would be granted more powers to fight this evil trade.

Russia: Christmas project to bring hope of Christ to 50,000 children
Russian Ministries is aiming to provide gift-filled shoeboxes along with children’s Bibles to 50,000 needy kids across Russia and the former Soviet Union this Christmas. ‘Our plan is that 50,000 children will receive those gifts but also learn about Jesus through the story that will be shared with them by young people on behalf of their churches who put together a presentation on the birth of Jesus, who became the greatest gift of all,’ said Russian Ministries’ President Sergey Rakhuba. He added: ‘Christmas is the greatest opportunity to reach out to children with the Gospel, but during that time the atmosphere creates more open space and especially in those territories where Christianity is not as influential. It’s also a great opportunity for young potential leaders in Russia, who we like to equip with these Christmas boxes, which we like to call Gifts of Hope.’ Praise: God for this initiative that brings hope to so many young people. (Ps.105:1)
