Please pray for the situation here in Philippines:
Just in the last couple of weeks 8 children have gone missing and found dead…various organs missing and up to P500,000 ($1,200) taped inside or around the body. Apparently it is a van that comes by and grabs the kids as they are walking to or from school. Some schools have even suspended classes for now. The children range in age from elementary to 16 years old. Obviously, their organs are being sold on the black market. (Kidneys, heart and eyes) These children were taken from areas near Butuan, about 1 hour away. Please pray God’s hand of protection and justice would come quickly. Pray for the families who are now grieving a terrible loss. Pray all other children would be safe. And pray that those who are doing this would be caught and stopped. God have mercy on us.
FOR MORE INFORMATION:
In 2008, the National Bureau of Investigation alerted the public over the rampant smuggling of human organs in the Philippines. The NBI said smugglers are now targeting children who are kidnapped and taken abroad where their organs are sold to foreign nationals.[102] [103] The World Health Organization has identified the Philippines as one of the five organ trafficking hotpots. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_trafficking_in_the_Philippines#Child-organ_trafficking
