Bruce Ladebu will be with us to share his life stories as a professional adventurer, explorer, and guide traveling to some of the wildest places on earth including first ascents in the arctic and an expedition on the polar ice cap. In the early 90’s Bruce traveled through the ex-Soviet Union countries and saw the terrible conditions children were forced to live in, including the marketing of young girls and boys forced into sex trafficking. Then in 2009, after witnessing labor slavery firsthand, Bruce worked to develop a strategy to rescue these individuals, and the Children’s Rescue Initiative was formed. Working with ex-military, law enforcement, professional organizations, and average citizens around the world, Bruce and his teams have rescued 2,345 children and adults from labor slavery/sex trafficking and given them a start at a new life.
Come and be inspired at what God can do, and has done, through the Children’s Rescue Initiative! Bruce and his teams, covet our prayers for their mission to rescue, restore and raise up those caught in modern slavery.

About PRAYERIE
PRAYERIE is a move of God that is rising up out of a well of unity. This new stream started flowing with a collaboration of churches and business leaders who gathered together around the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association Rock the Lakes festival. Since then God has expanded prayer in Erie.

WHAT IS ECBLA?
ERIE CHRISTIAN BUSINESS
LEADERS ASSOCIATION
It began in 2014 when Franklin Graham and the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association helped organize over 100 churches and many small businesses in the community to host the Rock the Lakes festival in Erie, PA. 14,000 people attended this wonderful event. But even more importantly, it was the start of a movement where Christians from all over the city have been mobilized to unprecedented levels of unity and faith. One such group of friends helping to seed this movement and connect with the heart and pulse of the area is the Erie Christian Business Leaders Association (ECBLA).
