January is national Human Trafficking Awareness month.
Awareness IS Prevention. YOU can make a difference.
Learn the truth and share with those you know, especially children and young adults. The average age human traffickers seek for human buyers is ages 12-13.
#NoMoreTrafficking #InterruptingHumanTraffickingWe asked survivors what they want you to know about human trafficking. This is what they said: “It begins with the lifestyle you were raised in and you get stuck in that mindset.”
Some people are lucky enough to grow up in a family that’s able to give them lots of support and love; others are not. Habits formed as children can be hard to change or break. If those habits include domestic violence, substance abuse, or sexual abuse, the risk of trafficking goes up. Sometimes, it’s more direct. Worldwide, almost half of trafficked children are recruited by family members. Imagine if the only way you knew to prove your love to your family was to let yourself be trafficked. Imagine how much strength and courage it would take to break away. #carrythecause #humantraffickingawarenessmonth ... See MoreSee Less
Awareness is Prevention.
Please take the time to educate yourself and those you love (especially the children and young adults in your life, ages 7 through mid-twenties) about the ways human traffickers lure others into this traumatic bondage.
This is not a simple life issue and the realities are beyond horrible. You CAN make a difference by simply knowing the facts and sharing the facts.

The impact of abusive trauma is raw and it is REAL!
This footage is all at once enlightening and absolutely heartwrenching in a beautiful way. **Watch to the End**: it is not abusive at all. It is so sweet! I would never post anything abusive to human or animal!
This is a beautiful picture of how love, kindness, gentleness, and patience can impact a living creature.
Imagine the impact upon survivors of human trafficking - to be gently and lovingly cared for!
Abusive trauma is very real among us - sexual, mental, emotional, and physical. It is hidden in plain sight all around us. Gentleness, love, caring, and understanding will often unveil it right before our eyes.
Never doubt the impact of our slower pace along life's journey, which allows us to SEE with our hearts what we miss while wearing our Crown of Busy!

January is Human Trafficking Awareness month. Awareness IS Prevention.
This is about so much more than the public perception of "prostitution!"
In 2019, we are dealing with wicked, yet savvy manipulators who actually "groom" their victims with all kinds of nice talk and actions. The intense mental and emotional manipulation leads to victims not even realizing they are being victimized.
What can YOU do? Learn the facts. Lose the judgment. Spread Awareness. Why? Because Awareness IS Prevention.

Friends of Countless Joys: Please pray and share this message.Day 19. 01/01/2019
Dylan is still MISSING.
The ONLY FACTUAL information we have is that he left VYA in Gallatin, TN on foot at 1:30 am of 12/14/2018.
I say factual loosely because there has been so much negligence and flat out lies from the investigator with Gallatin PD that I don’t even know if I believe the footage was actually reviewed or if staff and boys were questioned. Nonetheless, that is all we “know”.
Dylan did NOT have a phone, money, a car, or anyone with him. There have been NO confirmed sightings or communications. NONE of this makes sense. Someone knows something. Please come forward. Please do the right thing.
With each day that passes, it becomes harder and harder to breathe. To find words to speak. The crushing weight of the unknown and the reality that either my son has left this earth or someone is helping him and refusing to come forward has become almost too much to bear. There is a constant heat in my chest. A pain I never knew existed has found a home deep in my soul.
For everyone who has been born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world—our faith.
Who is it that overcomes the world except the one who believes that Jesus is the Son of God? (1 John 5:4-5)
I believe, help my unbelief. (Mark 9:24)
Lord I am broken and right now I am struggling to believe. I struggle to find words to pray. I know my pain and moments of doubt do not change the truth of who You are. I know when I don’t have words the Holy Spirit intercedes on my behalf. I know you love my son, he was yours first. Bring him out of the grips of this world Lord. Wrap him in your love. Clothe him in your righteousness. Rescue him. Let YOUR voice be the loudest he hears. Lord we ask for clarity today. We ask for truth. We need you. Hears our cries.- Amen
Thank you to everyone who is praying for our family. Thank you for continuing to share. Our hope is that someone somewhere will see his face and lead us to him. We are deeply blessed by your love and support.
If you believe you see him. CALL 911
Try to take a picture and/or video
If you believe you have seen him please make note of location, date, time of day. These are things we have to know to be able to follow a lead.
**IF YOU SEE OR HEAR FROM ANY OTHER SOURCE BUT THIS PAGE THAT HE HAS BEEN FOUND, IT IS INACCURATE AND FALSE INFORMATION, DO NOT SHARE FAKE NEWS PLEASE.**
