The African Girl

Day 26 - Women and Girls

Learn to do what is right! Promote justice! Give the oppressed reason to celebrate! Take up the cause of the orphan! Defend the rights of the widow! – Isaiah 1:17

The most vulnerable communities in Africa are hard places to be a girl. Frequently, women and girls are looked down upon, taken advantage of, or thought of as ‘less than’. Seeing their worth, Hands at Work empowers our women and girls to see the value and importance that they have, not only in their own families and community but in the Kingdom of Heaven. Pray for protection over their hearts and minds and for their physical health.

"As the crisis affecting young girls deepens, it actually creates an opportunity for action. With threats like human trafficking worse than they’ve been in decades, the problem can no longer be easily ignored, and it is demanding the attention of local stakeholders."
