IJM’s Stop Injustice: 5 Weeks for Freedom campaign has hit the road! After kicking off the tour in Mobile, AL, this weekend, the 15 members of the 5 Weeks for Freedom team began their 1800-mile cycle on the historic route of the Underground Railroad Monday morning.
Even though their first day (a 75-mile ride!) started with rainy weather and hilly terrain, the team is more exited for the road ahead than ever — 5 weeks and 1800 miles of sharing about the reality of modern-day slavery and empowering people to act on behalf of victims of violent oppression.

may the journey you are on serve God’s purpose, may many people respond righteously on behalf of the oppressed in our own country. God protect you behind and before on this mission, and give you courage, strength and stamina to fight the good fight, remembering the enemy cannot rise above the position of defeat. Cannot. Amen.
