The deadly fighting in South Sudan: The Evangelism assessment TEAM focused on the Sudanese refugees from South Sudan within and outside over thirty South Sudanese refugee camps across northern Uganda. Over 1.5 million South Sudanese refugees have run away to neighboring countries in the region, half of populations are located in Uganda. To a greater extent, two-thirds of South Sudanese refugees living in Uganda have arrived since the outbreak of violence in Juba in 2013-July 2016. Currently, the influx shows little sign of abating, with more than 116,000 South Sudanese refugees having fled to Uganda in 2017 alone. Elijah was greeted by the Christian refugees and they march in a parade toward the gathering for preaching and fellowship.

Shepherding the community through the Challenges of Pastoral Ministry: Pastors, we appreciate your love and service to the Lord to the Body of Christ in general and to your families in particular. We are grateful for your commitment to improving their spiritual well-being and strengthening your communities. Thank you so much for serving and ministering to the refugees, often at difficult hours and in the midst of our diverse crises.
