Urgent Appeal from Christ Mission to the World with whom we serve with in South Sudan.

“Now, when dark clouds gather, the children’s laughter fades. They glance nervously at the sky, their little hands covering their ears, whispering prayers that the storm will pass without another tragedy. This is no way for a child to live in constant fear of what the next lightning strike might bring. We cannot remain idle in the face of such danger. -Bishop Garang Chan Majok, Executive Director

This 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.

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

Together with Christ Mission to the World, 1,760 orphan children receive food aid at five locations near Aweil, South Sudan, where we have been serving since 2016.

Every day, 603 orphan children in Adoor receive a nutritious meal through our food program. At the same time, our faithful partners at Kids for the Kingdom provide daily meals to 546 additional vulnerable children in the same community. Together, we are reaching a total of 1,149 children with food they can count on—right at their local school.

We recently completed a process to determine how we might best meet the needs of orphan children in the Aweil area of South Sudan, where we currently feed 1,753 of these children. We are encouraged by all that has been accomplished within the Aweil Food Aid Mission Project since 2016. Within the process of considering our Road Map forward, we have an eye toward addressing current needs into the future.

Greetings from Aweil Town, South Sudan! My name is Jacob Kuel Akook, and I am the Head Teacher of Aweil Town Orphanage School. I am writing to extend my heartfelt gratitude for the generosity you have shown to our school and community.

Feed the hungry and help those in trouble. Then your light will shine out from the darkness, and the darkness around you will be as bright as noon. Isa 58.10

South Sudan is a country that gained independence in 2011, and where we have served alongside of Christ Mission to the World (CMW) since 2016. We work with CMW in five locations; four village schools, and one orphanage located at a Church, to feed 1,753 orphan children.

Feed the hungry and help those in trouble. Then your light will shine out from the darkness, and the darkness around you will be as bright as noon. Isa 58.10

June is no different as we have set out to care for more than 2,700 orphan children in our three care initiatives; Home-Based Care, Education, and Nutrition and plan to impact another 12,600 children through our Church Mobilization efforts.

We look forward to seeing what God does with us next!

I have been told during travels to Africa that “water is life”. None of us can live without water, and for many, one of the necessities of life is very difficult to come by.

Feed the hungry and help those in trouble. Then your light will shine out from the darkness, and the darkness around you will be as bright as noon. Isa 58.10

We are currently feeding 1,761 orphan children in Ethiopia, Kenya, Pakistan, and South Sudan.

2024 Reach 10/40 Mission. I am ramping up preparation for a return to Asia for our Reach 10/40 Mission. I am eager to meet with the Pastors there that have been instrumental in our Church Mobilization Initiative roll-out. 

This mission should result in 325 GO! Ambassadors being commissioned, which will eventually benefit 1,973 orphan children. We can project these expectations based on data that we have collected on the five workshops conducted in Asia thus far over the last year.

We have been providing food aid at Beliek Primary School since 2016. Today, there are 901 vulnerable children that attend this school, with 390 of these students being orphaned children.

We are currently feeding 1,502 orphan children at four locations.

The State of our Movement is strong. We raised more funding in 2023 than any time in our ministry with 224 Funding Partners that provided a total of $384,076 during the year. In the field, we impacted a record number of children with 16,196 impacted in December, which was made possible by the hard work of thirteen Field Partners who facilitated work in sixteen distinct Mission Projects in six countries.    

ICS/Child Care Plus Mission Project is an effort to allow orphan children to attend school regardless of resources. This work occurs at Mukumbi Secondary, Mukumbi Primary School, Lubinga Primary School, Shinda Primary School, and Shilenda Primary School in the North-Western Province of Zambia.

Thank you to all involved in providing hope for the future for these beautiful children.

Eighteen years ago, we were preparing to deploy our family to Juarez, Mexico, for our very first international mission. We were busy gathering gifts for 20 children that year along with some other supplies for an orphanage located there. It was an exciting time venturing into the unknown with only our faith to guide us!

While we might be larger as a group than eighteen years ago, we also have many commitments that didn’t exist then. It was a simpler time, but our faith continues to guide us into the unknown.

Since we are already serving in Adoor, Luethwek, Beliek, and at one other location in Aweil, which are all located in Northern Bahr el Ghazal, providing food aid in Aweil Town only seemed like a natural next step. We are building the future in Aweil Town!

With the funding provided, construction began last month for latrines for the school. This project will be done later this month. Early next year, Christ Mission to the World will establish a temporary cook shelter where meals can be prepared to serve 709 vulnerable children.

Beliek Primary School produces female Soccer team to bolster Girl child education campaign as part of the GO! Sponsorship IMPACT in the community.

With more than 20 girls ages of 6- 16 years have been trained to play soccer and will be ready to compete with other neighboring schools' girls during Christmas Eve celebrations this year.

Together, what we are really doing is creating the future, and this is not just any future, but a better future for all. You see, orphan children are not the only ones to be blessed by this work. The result is that each of us is encouraged by others in our movement.

The way forward is a posture of abundance and not of scarcity.
