Click for locator map...In December, 2007 Pastor Marcelo Amule and his 9 person evangelism team traveled north to Rokon, Laporu, Jambo, Lanyi, and Wiro, Sudan. The team left Yei, Sudan on November 25 and returned on December 20.

The results of what God did through the evangelism team are listed below:

Village Indicated Decisions For Christ
Rokon 5,400
Laporu 3,000
Jambo 4,000
Lanyi 3,500
Wiro 2,800
Total 18,700

Approximately 70% of the new believers had been animists, and 8% had been Muslims. The JESUS Film was shown in the Moru and Bari languages to mainly the Moru and Nyagwara tribes. Two new churches were planted. One new church was planted in Lanyi, and one new church was planted in Wiro. 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 Moru language and 200 bibles were distributed in the Bari language.

Discipleship follow-up training was conducted on “Righteous Living for Christ’s Sake.” In our relationship with our Master we have opted for righteous living because of our obedience to him:

  1. For Christ’s sake you will have to face persecution (Matthew 5:11).
  2. For Christ’s sake you will have to face hatred (Matthew 10:22).
  3. For Christ’s sake you must be willing to face the possibility of losing your life (Matthew 10:37-39).
  4. For Christ’s sake you must be willing to renounce worldly treasures (Matthew 6:19).
  5. For Christ’s sake you must be willing to face suffering (Philippians 1:29).
  6. For Christ’s sake you must be willing to face loss of reputation (1 Corinthians 4:10).
