Approximately 65% of the new believers had been animists, and 5% had been Muslims. The JESUS Film was shown in the Lingala language to the Baka, Mundu, and Avokaya tribes. The Lingala language was used because these tribes read the Lingala language bible. Follow-up of the new believers will be handled by the Evangelical Presbyterian Church, the Episcopal Church of Sudan, and the Sudan Pentecostal Church. A total of 700 bibles were distributed with 500 bibles in the Lingala language and 200 New Testament bibles in the Mundu language.
Discipleship follow-up training was conducted on "Blame Shifting." The following themes and verses were used in this teaching:
- Adam and Eve tried to shift blame (Genesis 3:12-13).
- Some people try to blame God (Proverbs 19:3).
- Do not judge others while you fail to acknowledge your own sin (Matthew 7:1-5).
