One of the members of our team is Gavin Cameron, who has a particular passion to stop child trafficking, and has set up his own organization, Gavin writes:
I admit it. I have an agenda, a particular reason for being here...
I joined this Tearfund trip to Cambodia because two years ago I made a promise; to search for children enslaved in the world sex trade, to intervene and move them into a place of safety and nurture.
My organisation is dedicated to the rescue and safe-relocation of children enslaved, trafficked, and traded. Today countless children are exposed to a global sex trafficking industry, which we believe is a continuous assault on the innocence, dignity and love Jesus has bestowed on every child.
In case we find ourselves too far removed to be motivated to act...
Yesterday I held such a child.
He is two years old, and was sold for $300 by his own parents.
OUR PROMISE TO ENSLAVED CHILDREN
We know you are scared.
We know you are alone.
We know you cannot remember the days when you were not terrified.
We know men so much stronger than you hold you down, and beat you up.
We know they force you to do things that shouldn't be part of this world.
We can't imagine what you are feeling, but we want you to know that we are looking for you.
We want you to know that we are coming.
Our promise to you is that we will never give up on you.
We will never sit back and let you face these horrors without hope.
We consider it an absolute privilege to be even that last remaining shred of hope in your everyday nightmare.
We cannot let this continue.
We cannot let them think they own you.
When we find you, we will bring you home.
We will always work to bring you home.
The Harper Organisation.
