Day 17: for Esperanza

Esperanza is my favorite word.  It is Spanish for "hope."

Please watch this video containing footage of sex trafficking.  It is very realistic and upsetting.  None of the girls in this video are named, but by the looks on their faces, the horror in their eyes, and the numbness in their expressions, they only name I pray for them is "Esperanza."  We need to end this.  As recipients of God's grace and hope, we cannot turn our faces away any longer.
