The first of the Mardi Gras parades begin today. This is the
economy and mindset of NOLA in action. Locals and tourists will spend freely and will party together for the next three-and-a-half weeks. As anti-trafficking groups speak out against trafficking in the midst of it all, the consistent protest is that they are putting a damper on events that are a
boost to our economy.
Pray that God would not be forgotten in the feast. Pray that our
leaders and citizens would count the cost of buying and selling human beings. Pray that
maskers and revelers would recognize the insanity of inhumane behavior in the name of fun and freedom. Pray for awareness. Pray for compassion. Pray for the exposure of what goes on in secret places.
