The Underground Church Network (UCN) is created in the belief that people of faith have a special role to play when it comes to the work of abolition: freeing slaves and creating a world where survivors can thrive. We will assist you to grow a thriving abolitionist program in your backyard by providing platforms for active engagement.
Christians Living Differently
The UCN challenges followers of Christ to Live Differently by faithfully engaging in the work of modern-day abolition. We must stand and walk with the 30 million enslaved. It is time to combat human trafficking in our backyards and around the globe.
Engage your local faith community in the fight against slavery by incorporating the issues into the life and worship of the church: pray and preach against slavery, encourage study groups and missions teams to actively work on behalf of survivors and organizations on the front lines, and challenge ecclesiastic structures to adopt policies, practices, and theologies that reflect the Biblical stance against slavery.
