We have long talked about building a Troy based Love146 Task Force at Terra Nova. But here was never clear vision from Love146 on what those Task Forces would be doing and as a result we have started and stopped this process a couple of times.

As It turns out, I was a squeaky enough wheel on this issue that Love146 ultimately hired me to help address the problem. Now with a clear vision, some really great new tools and a staff team dedicated to equipping Task Forces, Love146 is re-launching and Terra Nova is moving forward in Troy.

Love146 Task Forces are volunteer expressions of Love146 working locally to end child sex trafficking and exploitation. Love146 Task forces will meet on a monthly basis to …

1. Work through an “Abolitionist Curriculum” becoming local experts on this issue.

2. Hold an annual event that raises awareness about this issue and funding for Love146 … ie … Ride, Run, Walk4Love.

3. Work as local activists participating in advocacy initiatives as they arise and working to “Slave Proof” our own Troy community.

The Troy Task Force will be Gospel based and operate out of Terra Nova Church, but will be open to the community as a common cause issue.

Angel Eads will serve at the point person and facilitator for this group. I will also be participating, giving our Task Force a personal link to Love146. There will be an informational meeting on 2/20 at 2pm at Terra 409. You can sign up to come to that meeting here on The City, in the lobby after the Sunday service … or just come as the Lord leads.

Abolition!
