Why South Sudan Needs Hope

South Sudan is a hard place to do ministry. After gaining independence as a country in 2011, South Sudan broke into civil war just two years later. Tensions between the Dinka president and the Nuer vice president devolved into tribal warfare. 

Dinka and Nuer are the two largest ethnic groups in the country. While Dinkas and Nuers have in the past lived together peaceably, politically motivated violence has now caused tribal members to turn against their former neighbors. The cycle of panic, self defense, and destruction seems to be unending. And yet, even in the midst of this desperate situation, Words of Hope is speaking the peace of Christ to those who need to be reminded of it most. Programs focus reconciliation, conflict resolution, and trauma healing.
