Sudan…Please Pray For Revival!

 

We apologize for the poor quality of this picture

Dear friends,

Many of you have followed the rebirth of The Loka Senior Secondary School ( The Nugent School) with us for many years. GRN continues to press on in this very challenging, yet life changing project. Currently we are renovating two dormitories, but the greatest need we have is that of spiritual awakening.

For many years, this part of Sudan was a hub of spiritual activity. Those days have long past and the need for revival is critical. We are praying that the school will be a light house for the gospel and a launching pad for missionaries that will carry Jesus to this war torn country and around the world. We are asking God for Spirit filled leaders to arise from the ashes and take hope to the cities, towns, villages, and bush land of this great country.

Many people died as martyrs in Sudan as they proclaimed the name of Jesus to their own countrymen. We have personally met scores of people in Sudan who have lost loved ones due to preaching the gospel. Our desire is to see a generation rise up and take the place of these courageous saints.  

Would you please stand with us as we believe God for an outpouring of His Spirit upon the students and teachers at the Loka Senior Secondary School?

Thank you!

Please lift my wife in your prayers, as she is going through post-traumatic stress.
