ROME (CNS) Organizers of the International Day of Prayer and Awareness against Human Trafficking are hosting a cross-continental “prayer marathon” Feb. 8 to pray for an economy free of exploited, trafficked persons.
Because of the global pandemic, the event will be online only; it will include a video message from Pope Francis which will be broadcast during the livestreamed event on YouTube.
