A threat to injustice

A threat to injustice

“…violence against women and girls remains one of the most widespread abuses of all human rights worldwide.” (Global Affairs Canada)

Today is International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women.

This is an issue that spans across cultures, religions and all socio-economic strata. WOW has seen horrific situations of violence against women and girls in communities where we work. We have responded by launching our Gender-Based Violence Prevention and Counselling program. Efforts such as this one are crucial. Violence against women is preventable, but prevention requires action. Take a moment to read the two links below. They describe the epidemic well.

One thing they do not acknowledge is the important role of the Church in fighting against this massive issue. One of our partners so rightly put it “the Church must be a threat to injustice.” This is truth. The Church is God’s plan to enact His justice in the world until Christ returns. Women are God’s daughters, His beloved. Violence towards them is a violation of God’s justice. Therefore the Church must respond. It is the Church that will be the greatest threat to violence against women if we do so. We cannot afford to remain silent.

    I am the manager of JustCBD brand (justcbdstore.com) and I’m presently aiming to expand my wholesale side of business. I am hoping someone at targetdomain is able to provide some guidance ! I thought that the most effective way to accomplish this would be to talk to vape shops and cbd stores. I was really hoping if anybody at all could recommend a reliable web-site where I can get Vape Store Email List I am currently examining creativebeartech.com, theeliquidboutique.co.uk and wowitloveithaveit.com. On the fence which one would be the most suitable solution and would appreciate any guidance on this. Or would it be simpler for me to scrape my own leads? Ideas?

    We tested coffee makers for the water temperature during the brew cycle and the brewing time as well as the temperature of the coffee at the end of brewing and during the keep warm cycle. In addition, we evaluated each brewer’s ease of use, including how easy it was to read and use the controls, access the water tank and brew basket, read the markings on the tank and carafe, whether or not it had automatic keep warm and shut off cycles, and the ease of cleaning the carafe.
