Catholics in England and Wales are being invited to pray for all victims of human trafficking on the Feast Day of St Bakhita. The Sudanese Saint was chosen because at the age of nine she was kidnapped and sold into slavery.

Results of a recent poll indicates that only a quarter of the UK public see human trafficking as a widespread problem.
Cecilia Taylor-Camara, Senior Policy Advisor for the Office for Migration Policy at the Catholic Church told Premier's News Hour people are still unaware this is happening today:
A Monthly Gift Of $11 Makes A World Of Difference
In a world of fake news there’s never been a greater need for quality Christian journalism. Premier’s mission is to provide the Church with the most up to date and relevant news, told from a Christian perspective. But we can’t do it without you.
Unlike many websites we haven't put up a paywall — we want to keep our journalism free at the point of need and as open as we can. Premier’s news output takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. No one in the USA is sharing news like we are across radio, magazines and online so please help us to continue that today.
For a monthly gift of $11 or more we’d also be able to send you a free copy of the brand new Premier Bible, a wonderful Anglicised version of the NLT packed with exclusive bonus content, reading plan and resources to help you get the most out of scripture.
Your monthly support will make a world of difference. Thank you.
