[Episcopal News Service] Sara Lowery from the Episcopal Diocese of Alabama is spending one year as a Young Adult Service Corps volunteer working with Hong Kong’s Mission for Migrant Workers. The mission helps some of the 300,000 domestic workers who sometimes encounter abuse or exploitation in their workplace. It operates an open-door policy for women in need, runs two shelters and offers a variety of services such as case management and legal assistance. Lowery’s ministry there is a partnership between the Episcopal Church and the Hong Kong Sheng Kung Hui.

    I am so glad to see such an invaluable ministry. My small rural community hires many migrant workers who work long hours for an incredibly low wage.
