Pajok, South Sudan



An evening of rest after a day of travel and ministry.

Finally, after 2 years of prayer, God has allowed me to visit the village of my dear friend and brother in the Lord, David Omal. I was honored to serve with him for 1½ years in Kitgum, and also in Sudan; he is truly a humble servant of God. 

In June, he answered God’s call to return to his village in South Sudan and began caring for some of the many orphans there.  At the moment, he and his wife Grace are caring for 19 children, some are his family and 10 are orphaned.

Our time there was short, but we were able to do 2 days of ministry with the women and children while the men evangelized throughout the village. Pajok is an extremely isolated village and the poverty and suffering is widespread.  We hope to return soon, and to be an encouragement and support to God’s work there.

They had practiced for hours.  In the evening, we had fun time with the children making pipecleaner glasses and laughing together. These children were so respectful and well behaved, and appreciated every little thing. What a huge blessing they were to be around.
