Conheça a Grace
BWAid: Impactando o mundo
Uma vida de cada vez
As a young girl, Grace was sent�by her family to live�as a�?Trokosi?�slave at a shrine in Ghana.�Trokosi�is a traditional system�in which�a�virgin girl serves�as�a slave�to make amends for wrongs committed by the girl?s family.�Now age 21, Grace can no longer find or even identify her biological family as she was sent to the shrine at such a�young�age.��
During her 13 years of enslavement at the shrine,�Grace experienced captivity and abuse, including rape�which resulted�in pregnancy.�Thankfully, Grace was rescued from the shrine by the Ghana Baptist Convention.��
Grace enrolled in the Baptist Vocational Training Centre operated by Ghanaian Baptists�e apoiado pela Baptist World Aid.�Along with other rescued young women, she began to see a brighter future and a new life. For the first time, the girls�dreamed of graduating and becoming responsible adults capable of providing for their families and living independent lives.��
Este sonho foi quase encurtado pela pandemia da COVID-19 em março de 2020, quando escolas e igrejas foram fechadas para ajudar a conter a propagação do vírus em Gana. Foi graças à resposta da Aliança Mundial Batista COVID-19 que este sonho foi restaurado.�
Grace graduated successfully in December 2020 to the glory of God. Now�she has�started a personal trading activity in the Volta Region of Ghana that will give her and her child a future of hope and provision.�
A Aliança Mundial Batista é reconhecida como uma organização sem fins lucrativos 501(c)(3) nos Estados Unidos.
