God Moving in South Sudan
“South Sudan is a new nation which got her independence in 2011. It has been making headlines for bad news, but now is time to spread the Good News,” states Rev John Yual, Nazarene missionary to South Sudan.
On Monday, 13 January 2025, 80 new believers were baptised in the Nile River in South Sudan. This is the same Nile River where the baby Moses was drawn up out of the water and saved for a greater purpose. These new believers are from the New Life Church of the Nazarene in Juba South, South Sudan, who were saved under the teaching and preaching of Pastor Paul Abaan. This church is only 6 months old, and it already has 89 new converts to the faith who have been baptised.
Despite hardships and unimaginable conditions, on the 8th of January 2025, an additional 25 new believers were baptised at a South Sudanese refugee camp in Uganda. We thank God for the hard work of local pastors and missionaries who are working in challenging situations.
“My vision and payer have been to have vibrant churches, but unfortunately the war broke out again in 2013,” said Rev Yual. “I trust God to make the Church of the Nazarene one of the largest denominations in the whole country of South Sudan.” Join with Rev Yual in praying for our new believers and the church in South Sudan.
