Listen "St Josephine Bakhita - Survivor of Human Trafficking - Part 1 (Audiobook)"
Episode Synopsis
St Josephine Bakhita was a trafficked child: abducted from her home and family by slave raiders, sold and re-sold, and horribly abused. To a succession of cruel owners she was a thing, not a person, and even her name was taken from her. Yet her discovery of Jesus Christ, her true master, gave meaning to her appalling suffering.
Based on the Catholic Truth Society book by Jean Olwen Maynard, this audiobook tells the incredible story of a saint whose story is sadly very relevant for society today.
“Human trafficking is an open wound on the body of contemporary society, a scourge upon the body of Christ. It is a crime against humanity.” (Pope Francis)
