Evangelism and Discipleship Training Trip – Nimule, Loa, Pageri, Kerepi, Moli, Karpeto, Lobonok, Sudan
In November, 2007 Pastor Jacob Keto and his 9 person evangelism team traveled southeast to Nimule, Loa, Pageri, Kerepi, Moli, Karpeto, and Lobonok, Sudan. The team left Yei, Sudan on November 5 and returned on December 12.
The results of what God did through the evangelism team are listed below:
| Village | Indicated Decisions For Christ |
| Nimule | 3,800 |
| Loa | 2,600 |
| Pageri | 1,500 |
| Kerepi | 4,100 |
| Moli | 3,000 |
| Karpeto | 1,400 |
| Lobonok | 900 |
| Total | 17,300 |
Approximately 65% of the new believers had been animists, and 2% had been Muslims. The JESUS Film was shown in the Madi and Bari languages to mainly the Madi and Bari tribes. 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 200 bibles were distributed in the Bari language and 200 bibles were distributed in the Madi language.
Discipleship follow-up training was conducted on “Meet the Master.” The following themes and verses were used in this teaching:
- His Baptism (Matthew 3:13-17, Mark 1:9-11, Luke 3:21-22)
- His Temptation (Matthew 4:1-11, Mark 1:12-13, Luke 4:1-3).
For example, under the temptation of our master, Matthew 4:3 says,
"If you are the Son of God, tell these stones to become bread." NIV
We are tempted by Satan to make a profit from the task which God gave us. It is of vital importance for us to remember that God will provide in our need and not in our greed.
