Water in Aweil Town Touches Many Lives

Water in Aweil Town Touches Many Lives

By Rt. Rev. Garang Chan Majok | Executive Director, Christ Mission to the World

Grace and peace to you in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ!

We write to you from the heart of South Sudan, overflowing with gratitude and joy. Your generosity in supporting the installation of a new Wateryard system for the orphans at Aweil Town Orphanage has brought life, health, and renewed hope to our orphans and entire community. The images you see below reflect not just an infrastructure project, but a profound transformation that touches lives daily. Before your support, our orphans walked for hours in search of water often missing class, risking disease, and struggling to survive. Now, they gather around clean water flowing from taps, laughing, learning, and believing once again in a future full of possibility of construction of classrooms so that they can stop learning under trees which is not conducive due to the interruption caused by strong winds, hot sun and rain. They are also believing for the construction of an orphanage.

We believe this divine connection is no coincidence. God has truly used you as a vessel of grace and restoration. You have fulfilled Proverbs 11:25, *'A generous person will prosper; whoever refreshes others will be refreshed.'* Your kindness has refreshed the orphans and entire village. Thank you for standing with us, for believing in the vision of Christ Mission to the World (CMW), and for becoming part of this redemptive story.

Moments Captured & Lives Touched

“Before this water came, some of the orphans used to faint in class from thirst. Now, we are strong, happy, and learning again and we also receive food.” Deng, 12 years old

“We prayed for water and God sent it through your hands. I now dream of becoming a doctor.” — Adut, Primary 5

“I wash my hands before eating and after the toilet. I don’t get sick like before.” — Nyibol, 9 years old

“My little sister doesn’t cry anymore for water. We fill our jerrycans quickly and go back to class.” — Martha, 14

“As a teacher, this water point has changed our work. Students now arrive clean, hydrated, and ready to learn.” — Mr. Garang

“The water is sweet and cold. When I open the tap, I feel joy in my heart.” — Sunday, Primary 3

Our Lasting Gratitude

Please know that your act of compassion has not only quenched the thirst of orphans in Aweil Town, but has renewed their dignity, health, and future. The ripple effect of this water system goes far beyond what words can capture. It touches classrooms, kitchens, clinics, and most of all hearts. From mothers who no longer fear for their children’s safety -to the teachers who now witness healthy, energetic learners, your gift has transformed lives. We believe God has a great purpose for this partnership and that together, through faith and continued collaboration, we will reach more villages, touch more lives, and build more hope in South Sudan.

With hearts full of thanks and prayers for your continued work,

Children at Luethwek, South Sudan, receiving meals.

We have served in South Sudan since 2016 and have provided an estimated 2.5 million meals, impacting more than 3,200 children in South Sudan. The scale of this initiative has grown by over 7 times since our launch in 2016, and this growth is driven by the near-famine conditions, the influx of refugees from Sudan, and other socio-economic challenges in this country.

In cooperation with partners, Kids for the Kingdom, Christ Mission to the World, and 200 Orphanages, there has been $183,000 invested in four school sites since October 2020. This investment provides for clean water, kitchens, storerooms, and latrines, all of which allow for cost-effective distribution of food aid in these communities.

Global Orphan Relief (GO) has been serving orphaned children since 2005. We have accomplished this work through local in-country partners that provide oversight and distribution of care.

In 2025, we are working to stabilize our funding for this project and will begin planning for further capital improvements for the locations where we currently provide food aid.
