Offering Peace...

Although there has been peace in southern Sudan since 2005, there will continue to be high levels of dislocation for some years. Amongst the transient communities in Aweil North County, Christian leaders are bringing a message of hope and peace. Regardless of differences of tribe and religion, new-arrivals in IDP settlements are welcomed, cared for, and told about a God who cares for the widow, orphan and alien. A friend who we support in this mission recently told me that 35 new believers were being nurtured and discipled in their new faith. They are also exploring the establishment of a new church amongst this community.
