Hello friends, I don’t talk much about myself here, but I am the Treasurer and Public Relations Officer for my campus’ International Justice Mission chapter.  If you’ve never heard of IJM here’s a link (http://www.ijm.org/) All week long, we’ve been having events for Justice Week and today (11/9) starting at 6:00 pm (CST) I’ll begin a 24 hour fast raising awareness about slavery and human trafficking.  24 hours. 24 prayers. 24 dollars.  The goal is to nation-wide raise $100,000 to fund 13 rescue missions.  If you feel led to join in the fast-wonderful! Thank you thank you! If you have money to spare (especially if you participate in the fast and the money you would spend on food can go towards the campaign)-donate here: https://give.ijm.org/team/141993?is_new=true
