Casework Update

We have three major trials underway in Guatemala right now - all for victims of sexual violence. When we first began operations in Guate, there was a less than 1% conviction rate for sexual violence offenders. We have seen remarkable changes in just 3 years, and each new case provides an opportunity for healing and for structural transformation.

Please pray for our three clients - they have endured great trauma and yet have such beautiful courage. Please pray for our staff and for the government authorities, that justice may be won.

For those of you who have been praying for the major rescue operations this week, I want to let you know that these operations were successful. I cannot give more detail due to security necessities, but if you have questions please contact me directly.

Praise God for the successful rescue operation!  Praying for these three clients and all involved in seeking justice for them.  God Bless!
