They might be talking about a mission? Personally wouldn't call that trafficking, but it can be pretty brutal depending on the mission

What the GP describes looks exactly like trafficking.

It is trafficking. Growing up in that church, I still agree with a lot of the stated philosophical beliefs, the actual behavior of most of the community is incredibly disappointing and leans cult-like. The mission isn't inherently trafficking, the religion isn't inherently a cult, but it's not beating the allegations and more within need to call out the members that commit these illegal organized atrocities and make it into a cult.
