News that makes you ill....but there is a way to help!

The husband is trained as a 'seafarer'. When we met, he was in training to work on huge ships. I'm so thankful that he ended up in a different line of work.

http://www.guardian.co.uk/law/2010/sep/30/slavery-trawlers-europe The thing is....the Guardian published this like this is 'big' news. Of course, there are many folks out there who have suspected as much for a long time - maybe not about food on European tables, but certainly the bad working conditions. I have many friends in the maritime industries.

Does this kind of news make you ill? Do you want to help? Here's a suggestion:
http://www.missiontoseafarers.org/ I don't know of another organization that does the work that this one does (if you know of one - please email me). I have had personal contact with this organization off and on over the years, and they really provide amazing help and kindness to seafarers in need.

Are you frustrated with the ugly disregard our world shows many people? Then find a reputable aid organization and get involved.

Peace.
