March Match Madness for Mirror Ministries: Growing Resilient, Gleaning Insight, and Gaining GEMs

March 1-31, 2024

Human trafficking is the second-fastest-growing criminal industry on the planet today, and its horrors occur right here in our community. The sale and exploitation of people for sex poses a critical issue in the Columbia Basin, particularly impacting young people, those experiencing homelessness, and other marginalized communities.

This March, we invite you to join Mirror Ministries in raising awareness about sex trafficking through the power of purposeful conversations. We invite you to share IN the mission with your financial support, and SHARE THE MINISTRY with a few of the resources below.

March Match for Impact:

Mirror Ministries has nearly 200 GEMs… donors who Give Every Month! GEMs are our most loyal supporters who sustain the work and provide the foundation for future growth. In March, we have a generous group of donors that have agreed to match the first donation of every new GEM donor (up to $10,000). So, if you sign up to be a $25/month GEM, the first $25 is matched! If a friend you introduce to Mirror Ministries signs up to give $50/month to the mission, that first $50 gift is matched.

Help us max out the challenge gift of $10,000 by sharing the mission with others this March! Think about the impact we can have in the lives of sex trafficking survivors by finding those GEMs in our family, friends, and church!

Gain Insight and Build Resilience:

Start by refreshing your connection to the mission of Mirror Ministries by viewing the presentation below made by the Pasco-Kennewick Rotary Club from a presentation our Executive Director did in 2022. (time: 37:27)

If you want a brief video that you can share with friends and post to social media during the month of March, consider this short video below. It’s less than 2 minutes long and shares the core mission and ministry values of Mirror Ministries.

Now… fuel for having purposeful conversations. Watch this 3-minute video, Dr. Brene Brown on Empathy with someone and ask yourselves, “How well do we show empathy towards one another? How could we improve?” And… “How can making a meaningful connection through empathy bring Christ’s love into a situation where we might otherwise feel overwhelmed and not know what to do?”

Share Your Insights:

That initial conversation with a friend is your launching point for raising awareness. Sharing the “Who we are & What we do” video or the Empathy video with your family might just spark a conversation that changes a life!

Share your insights and learning as you engage with Mirror Ministries’ mission with your friends and family. Post your recommendations for further viewing or reading and take-aways from your investment in learning online to create awareness within your community.
