The new abolitionists | plymouth’s anti-trafficking ministry

The New Abolitionists, Plymouth’s anti-trafficking ministry, works to free those trapped in modern day slavery. The trade in people and forced labor is a multi-billion dollar criminal industry that denies freedom to 20.9 million people around the world. And it happens here, in Brooklyn, right in our own backyard.

As a congregation and as individuals we reach out and embrace trafficking survivors through organizations that support them. We work with Restore, Sanctuary for Families, ECPAT-USA and others, and look for new projects to expand our ministry.

The Racial Justice Ministry

The Racial Justice Ministry has come together in response to God’s call to understand, address and dismantle racism in ourselves, and our society.  The work this ministry does includes providing opportunities and a safe environment at Plymouth where we can openly share thoughts and feelings, and ask questions about racism, education about the history and continuing presence of personal and systemic racism and publicly advocating for racial justice in our society.
