Since peace has come to South Sudan countless thousands of Darfuris have sought refuge from the ongoing conflict in Darfur. Gok Machar in Aweil North has been a gathering point because of its proximity to the border with Southern Darfur and many have then been transported to the Kakuma refugee camp on the Kenyan border.
Recently there has been a new wave of Darfuris arriving, and they are being settled in IDP settlements just south of Gok Machar. Christian leaders from various churches in Aweil travel to Gok Machar to care for these new arrivals.
For those who have faced the trauma of war and fled their homeland, it is a great comfort to be welcomed and cared for by people who have experienced the same suffering.
