About 30,000 Didinga people make their homes in these hills, farming the fertile soil and living in small clusters of stick and thatch huts. This ongoing ministry will focus on relational church planting in partnership with the Africa Inland Church of South Sudan. A central team focus will be encouraging, training, and mobilizing Sudanese believers to reach out to their community and become leaders for the church. Ministry will focus on discipleship through different platforms according to the skills and gifting of the team members: Possible ministry platforms include agriculture, medicine, education, teaching, and literacy.
