54. When Reality Hits: A Staff Member’s Awakening to Child Trafficking
In this powerful episode, co-founder Rebecca Pratt sits down with Samuel, a dedicated member of Orphan Relief and Rescue’s anti-trafficking team in West Africa. Samuel reflects on his early disbelief that child trafficking could exist in his own community—until he witnessed the painful realities firsthand. Seeing children suffering and parents accepting trafficking practices transformed his understanding and ignited his calling to protect vulnerable kids.
Samuel shares the deep joy he experiences when children are rescued, restored, and introduced to the hope of the gospel. He describes how the spiritual impact of their work extends beyond physical rescue—parents’ hearts change, families are strengthened, and even profound spiritual moments occur. During worship sessions, team members and children alike have reported seeing visions of angels, reinforcing their sense of divine protection and purpose.
Rebecca highlights the essential role of prayer in sustaining the team’s safety, courage, and effectiveness. She expresses gratitude for supporters who stand with them and invites continued prayer as they press forward into community meetings, prevention efforts, and ongoing spiritual breakthroughs.
