What motivates you to do what you do? Deb Baliko, ORR’s Communications and Event Manager, shares that her love for her coworkers and the people ORR’s serves motivates her to do her work. In 2004, Deb encountered spiritual opposition—rituals, curses, and an overwhelming sense of darkness. That night, intense nightmares and a dark spiritual attack occurred, but through faith in Jesus and reliance on the Holy Spirit, Deb found deliverance and peace. The experience reaffirmed the power of faith and the victory of Jesus over ll things – even life and death. The biggest takeaway from this trip was a powerful reminder from the Lord: her spiritual gifts are not gone, even while raising three young children. This experience provided her with the opportunity to reconnect with and actively use those gifts once more. 2 Timothy 4:2 AMP How to Connect or Learn More?

During a recent trip to West Africa, we witnessed the incredible impact of ORR's Community Freedom Centers in four major villages. These centers host educational gatherings and meals, bringing together the community, police, and social welfare officials to discuss abuse and its legal consequences. Many in the community lack awareness of what constitutes abuse, so these meetings shed light on troubling issues like child marriage, domestic violence, harmful rituals, and trafficking. Attendees were encouraged to report such incidents, with punishments ranging from 6 months to 20 years in prison. The partnership between the police and social welfare office is growing stronger, ORR acts as a bridge, connecting professionals with the community to foster engagement and education. Additionally, discussions were held on sustaining ORR’s Savings and Loan program to further support the villages. One inspiring story came from a fifth village, where 35 children were rescued from trafficking. A 10-year-old girl, previously forced to sell goods on dangerous streets, was reunited with her mother and enrolled in school through ORR. She is now safe, fed, and has a chance at a brighter future. Stories like hers highlight the transformative work ORR is doing to protect and empower children. How to Connect or Learn More?

Fatu's Miraculous Journey: A Life Transformed Fatu's story is a miraculous testimony of faith and transformation. On her deathbed, in a coma and pregnant with tumors, she had a vision of her body wrapped in chains and Jesus standing in the room. He promised to set her free if she committed her life to Him. After saying "yes" in her mind, she saw the chains break off from her body. She woke up, vomited out her tumors, and began singing, “He touched me, He touched me, now that joy fills my soul.”. Her husband, who had returned with a coffin assuming to find his wife dead, saw her singing in a chair and thought she was an angel. He witnessed her miraculous recovery and gave his life to Jesus as well. There was a supernatural shift. When she was resurrected, she had a supernatural impartation of love for others. Together, they converted their bar into a church to share the miracle and love of Jesus to anyone who would listen. During the Civil War, Fatu cared for 85 orphaned children she found in the forest. Her story is a powerful reminder that it’s never too late for hope or transformation, and she continues serving the Lord today with a heart full of compassion. Personal Application: God has given us one life and free will to live it. Matthew 10:39 reminds us that clinging to our own life leads to loss, but surrendering it for Christ brings true fulfillment. Shifting our focus from ourselves to loving and honoring others transforms our souls. Scripture: “If you cling to your life, you will lose it; but if you give up your life for me, you will find it.” (Matthew 10:39) How to Connect or Learn More?

Summary: ORR's Anti-trafficking Program was started to combat child trafficking and poverty in partnership with a local judge. Originally the jude requested ORR build more safe homes to protect the 5-12 children he was rescuing everyday, but we couldn't build enough safe homes to protect these kids. Instead, we were giving written permission by the judge to discover how to curb poverty to address the root causes of trafficking. A team pastors and translators was hired to learn from the community and not reveal they were Christian, as the area was 95% voodoo-practicing and resistant to Christianity. Over six months, they learned families trafficked children due to extreme poverty. Solutions included: $20 to outfit kids for school, a feeding program, which kept children in school, and a micro-loan program, helping women start businesses to support their families. This approach transformed communities, with parents no longer needing to sell their children. One woman shared that before our arrival, their only business was selling their children. But now, thanks to our efforts, they no longer face that heartbreaking choice. Instead, their livelihood comes from selling a variety of consumable goods. The program’s success is attributed to practical support combined with the motivation of learning about a God of love, leading even former traffickers to come to know Jesus and become advocates for change. The judge was amazed by the results, as other NGOs tried to do what we are doing, but did not succeed.

One example describes an orphanage shut down for severe sexual abuse and trafficking, uncovered thanks to a child's trust in an ORR nurse. ORR partnered with the government to create accreditation standards for orphanages and worked with UNICEF to reunify children with relatives. Trafficking varies by region, involving forced labor, domestic slavery, or sexual exploitation. To address this, ORR set up programs to prevent trafficking by providing education, feeding programs, and economic support for families through savings and loan initiatives. These programs incorporate Christian teachings but are open to all, regardless of belief. How to Connect or Learn More?

Summary : Three young siblings (ages 5, 3, and 2) were left to fend for themselves after losing their parents and grandmother. Rejected by their community and subjected to abuse, they struggled to survive, with the 5-year-old managing to find food daily to keep her siblings alive. ORR's child monitor discovered their situation, and although it took a month for legal approval to move them to our safe home, ORR provided immediate help by providing extra food for a neighbor to cook for the children as well as her own family in the interim. This case highlights the neglect orphans face, with the community often deeming them cursed because their parents died. Even the mayor shared that when an orphan dies no one traces the cause of death because they don't belong to anyone. How to Connect or Learn More?

Summary : Fear often stems from a lack of faith in. God and understanding of God's character, but seeking Him wholeheartedly allows us to overcome it and live with purpose. Each year, kids from ORR's Safe Home visit their villages, sharing Jesus' love, praying over meals, and for the healing of neighbors and family. They are the catalysts of change, spreading love and transforming their communities. Overcoming fear requires faith, surrendering fears to God that brings freedom to live boldly and purposefully. 1 Peter 5:7 reminds us how trusting God allows us to cast our anxieties on Him and find peace, knowing He cares for us. Scripture : 2 Corinthians 10:5: “We are destroying speculations and every lofty thing raised up against the knowledge of God, and we are taking every thought captive to the obedience of Christ,” 1 Peter 5:7 Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.

Redeeming Hope: What fuels your fight against human trafficking? Guest: Assistant to ORR’s Country Director and Freedom Center Manager Questions : 1. What brings you the most joy about your job? What personally motivates you to work for ORR? 2. When did you first learn about children being trafficked and the need for ORR to be in existence? 3. What makes you most excited about what ORR is doing? 4. What is the hardest part about your job. 5. How does the ORR programs collaborate with local leaders in the villages? 6. What are your hopes for the future of ORR? The love of Jesus motivates me in my work to combat human trafficking, a reality I didn't fully grasp until witnessing it firsthand. Meeting a teenage boy whose mother justified trafficking her children as part of her upbringing was a shocking and eye-opening experience. It's heartbreaking to see such cycles, but seeing rescued children smile, find hope, and embrace God's love is truly rewarding. One powerful testimony involved a boy who witnessed his father kill his mother and later forgave him after years of counseling and prayer. He even wrote a beautiful worship song thanking God for his love and protection. How to Connect or Learn More?

Summary : Trusting God’s Greater Plan Remind yourself that God is BIG, capable of restoring and redeeming. Key themes include enduring in prayer, relying on God's sufficient grace, and recognizing His strength in our lives. God partners with us to fulfill His plans, turning personal dreams into His purpose. Incredible transformations, like a former trafficker finding Jesus, showcase His power and love for us. Trust that everything God plants in your heart aligns with His greater plan. Scripture: 2 Corinthians 12:9 “ But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me.” (NIV) Ephesians 6:12 “For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.” (NIV) John 10:10 “The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.” (NIV) Guest Host: Chuck Olmstead : Experienced Director of Operations and Media Sales with a demonstrated history of working in the public relations and communications industry.

Never Underestimate What God Can Do Summary : Through reflection on personal faith and trust in God, we are reminded of His ability to work miracles through what we already possess. By asking the question, “What is in your house?” we are encouraged to consider the gifts, talents, and resources God has given us, trusting that He can multiply them for His glory. This process of partnership with the Lord invites us to surrender and believe in His power to do abundantly more than we could imagine (Ephesians 3:20). Story : A mother in ORR’s Savings and Loan Program returned from the capital city to the heartbreaking discovery that her brother had sold her children to a neighboring country. Undeterred, she fought relentlessly to bring them back. The uncle who betrayed her trust was able to retrieve the children and return them safely. Justice prevailed as the uncle was held accountable and prosecuted for his actions. Links : Inspired to Live an Extraordinary Life: Even through Difficult Circumstances by: Rebecca M.

Story: Emma came to ORR deeply wounded—emotionally, physically, and spiritually. Through love, prayer, and guidance, we helped her heal and discover her value, introducing her to a God of love. Forgiveness played a key role in her transformation, helping her let go of the past and embrace a hopeful future. We’ve learned the power of gratitude from these children—how a thankful heart can triumph over despair and bring lasting healing. Personal Reflection: Impact of Thoughts on the Brain : Our words, thoughts, and feelings have a profound impact on the brain, specifically influencing the thalamus. The structure of the thalamus changes based on our conscious choices, thereby shaping how we perceive reality. Choices and Wellbeing : The way we choose to live and the thoughts we cultivate directly affect our health and overall wellbeing. Colossians 3:15-17 encourages us to: Allow the peace of Christ to rule in their hearts. Be thankful and live in gratitude. Dwell richly on the word of Christ by teaching, singing, and sharing in spiritual wisdom. Perform all actions in alignment with the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God. Actionable Encouragement: Write down the negative thoughts to change. Consciously choose new, positive thoughts to transform your life both mentally and spiritually.

Rebecca favorite thing is for people to be awakened to hear the voice of the Lord. In preparation for the new year, take 1-hour to ask yourself the following questions: 1. God, What Do You Think about Me? Write down the first things that come to mind. If they are condemning thoughts, they are not from the Lord. If they are beautiful words, they are from the Lord. This is not a time that God will give you disciplinary words, but rather a time for God to share how He feels about you. Ignore the 2nd thought of you disputing that you heard from the Lord. Ignore the 3rd thought from the enemy telling you that you did not hear from God. Spend some time thanking God for what He has done for you and sharing with the Lord what you love about Him. 2. Is there anything that I feel is hindering me from living the life I know God has intended for me to live in this season? 3. What do I feel God wants me to do about it? 4. Ask the Lord for a word for the New Year (you may get a scripture, a quote, or a song). ORR Story: Sonia and Fredamine are living proof of the transformative power of ORR’s Safe Home. As orphans and trauma survivors, they’ve overcome incredible challenges. Now, as ORR employees, they give back to their community with compassion, inspired by the children we serve. Seeing themselves in these stories fuels their dedication and passion, embodying the values of hope, faith, and love that shaped their journeys.

You can the answer to someone’s prayer! Summary : The children in our program were praying for a miracle to be rescued. If we didn’t listen to God these kid’s miracles would not have taken place. We get to be the answer to their prayers. One story stands out: a 14-year-old girl, forced into a harrowing existence as one of nine wives. Every night, she prayed for God to give her a way to escape. After three long months, her prayers were answered, and she found her freedom. Without the help of organizations like ORR, many of these children would not have survived. This work is a true partnership with God, a calling to fulfill His perfect will. We don’t have to have all the answers ourselves. Instead, we can bring their needs to the Lord, trusting Him to provide guidance and solutions. Together, we are part of something miraculous.

“Our only business before ORR came was sending our children away (selling our children), but now you have come and our WHOLE life has changed. But now, we don’t have to send our children away anymore.

Summary : Looking around at the malnourished children, a sobering thought came to Rebecca, “What if these were my own biological children and I was dead? What if someone with the power to relieve their pain walked by and saw my babies suffering like this yet chose to do nothing? If possible, I would cry from my grave a big, ‘Shame on you for not helping my babies!’ Overwhelmed with emotion, I felt God remind me of the unique future and value He has for each child, including little Gifty in my arms.” After returning to America and having six months of sleepless nights, it became clear to Rebecca that Orphan Relief and Rescue would focus on helping children in the most dire and neglected circumstances, providing intervention to save lives, bring justice, and alleviate suffering. How do YOU start making a difference in the world when you feel called to help others but aren’t sure where to begin? Rebecca starts with a quote from Rick Warren, “ When God gives you a burden, don’t ignore it. Feed it, and let it break your heart. That is God’s heart. Don’t stuff or ignore those burdens.” Where to Connect: Orphan Relief and Rescue : orphanreliefandrescue.org Rebecca M.

Summary : “Rebecca, I have 18 children. My husband’s other wife died, and I have inherited her children. I have already trafficked 6 children, and I will have to traffic 5 more because I cannot feed them.” Our anti-trafficking work started with a judge seeking safe places for rescued children to prevent them from returning to their traffickers. The judge gave legal permission for our Anti-trafficking team to get to know the community —understanding their needs. Through six months of listening to the community, we identified solutions to prevent trafficking: enrolling children in school, providing two daily meals, and supporting parents with Savings and Loan programs to start businesses to provide for their families. “Start by doing what is necessary; then do what is possible; then suddenly you are doing the impossible.” – St. Francis of Assisi Links : Orphan Relief and Rescue’s Trafficking Program : https://orphanreliefandrescue.org/ati/ Rebecca M.

Summary: “Oh God,” I said, “You are going to help rescue these kids!” There was no doubt in my mind after THAT moment, this whole plan was going to happen because these were God’s babies and this was His dream to rescue them from starvation, abuse, despair, neglect and early death!” God shows His power by doing the impossible through ordinary people who say "yes" to Him. We may not realize how our daily lives impact the unseen spiritual world around us. He uses our hands, feet, and voices to carry out His will. Saying yes to God strengthens our faith and lets us be part of His greater plan, changing lives and destinies. How to Connect?
