The Church Was Made for This
Safe Passage warmly invites churches to unite with us in the vital mission to end child trafficking and exploitation. This partnership opportunity is designed to empower congregations of every size and stage of involvement. Our goal is to enable churches to engage deeply and meaningfully by leveraging their unique gifts, resources, and passions, all within a Christ-centered and trauma-informed framework that honors the dignity and healing of youth survivors.
Anchor Churches are cornerstone partners in the mission to end child trafficking—committing to a one-year partnership that invites Safe Passage to actively engage your congregation through prayer, education, volunteerism, and giving. These churches go beyond support; they embody it—leading their communities in informed, compassionate action.
Each Anchor Church appoints an Anti-Trafficking Advocate to serve as the main point of contact and coordinate efforts within the congregation.
Ways churches can partner with us throughout the year:
- Host a Safe Passage speaker during a Sunday service, mission night, or special event
- Allow Safe Passage to host a table in the church lobby between services
- Organize a Lunch and Learn event for congregants to hear about local needs and volunteer opportunities
- Connect Safe Passage to small group leaders for deeper ministry-wide engagement
- Share regular updates in bulletins, newsletters, and on social media
- Display prayer cards, flyers, and resources throughout the church
- Co-host awareness and prevention trainings for your congregation
- Open your building for mentor gatherings or survivor support events
- Explore integrating prevention content into youth programming and parenting classes
- Donate Bibles and welcome gifts for youth who attend Safe Passage events
- Host a table at our annual Night of Hope fundraiser to rally support and represent your church community
Through faithful leadership, Anchor Churches help ensure that no child falls through the cracks—and that the Church is ready to respond with love, truth, and tangible support.
