Anti-trafficking organisation Talitha Kum are coordinating an online ‘Pilgrimage of Prayer and Awareness against Human Trafficking’, next Wednesday 8th February, to mark the annual International Day of Prayer and Awareness against Human Trafficking.
This day marks the feast of Saint Josephine Bakhita, a woman from Sudan who was enslaved and trafficked as a child, enduring enormous torment and abuse over many years before gaining her freedom and devoting the rest of her life to religious service as a Canossian sister.
The online event will stream from 09:30 until 16:30 CET on the 8th February and can be watched on Youtube
