They are two distinct groups, those living in the lowlands to the west of the Didinga Mountains and those living in the mountains. The total population is estimated to be around 70,000 of which approximately half live in the mountain regions. Access to the people living in the lower regions is relatively easy, whereas access to those living in the mountains is difficult. The Didinga Mountains at 1,900m cover approximately 30,000 square kilometres, with many communities located in valleys, slopes and plateaus across the hills. There are no roads, poor public radio coverage and very limited cell phone network.<\/p>\n<p>The herding of cattle is very important to the Didinga, and at 2000m elevation, the area has sufficient rainfall to grow two crops per year. The Didinga also enjoy making music and various crafts. They live in homesteads with their clan, in round houses with cone-shaped roofs.<\/p>\n<p>Our vision is to see maturing churches planted on the mountains, planted in partnership with the church in South Sudan. We long to encourage and equip the Africa Inland Church in South Sudan to begin reaching its own people.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/prayafrica.org\/project\/didinga-south-sudan\/\" style=\"font-size: 15px;\">Click here<\/a><span style=\"font-size: 15px;\"> for more information about the Didinga people.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_2&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;3.25&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;|||&#8221; custom_padding__hover=&#8221;|||&#8221;][et_pb_image src=&#8221;https:\/\/aimint.org\/ap\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2020\/08\/Didinga-04b.jpg&#8221; title_text=&#8221;Didinga 04b&#8221; align_tablet=&#8221;center&#8221; align_phone=&#8221;&#8221; align_last_edited=&#8221;on|desktop&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.5.3&#8243; hover_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243; sticky=&#8221;off&#8221; border_style=&#8221;solid&#8221;][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=&#8221;1_2,1_2&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;3.25&#8243; background_size=&#8221;initial&#8221; background_position=&#8221;top_left&#8221; background_repeat=&#8221;repeat&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_2&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;3.25&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;|||&#8221; custom_padding__hover=&#8221;|||&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.5.3&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;||0px|||&#8221; border_style=&#8221;solid&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Location:<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/goo.gl\/maps\/F2EFBYVR4ZEhutuE8\">Didinga Hills<\/a>, South Sudan<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;3.27.4&#8243; border_style=&#8221;solid&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Experience:<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><strong>Required:<\/strong> Experience in disciple-making and cross-cultural ministry.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Desired:<\/strong>\u00a0Experience in church planting.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;3.27.4&#8243; border_style=&#8221;solid&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Training &amp; qualifications:<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><strong>Required:<\/strong> Mission theological training.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Desired:<\/strong> Disciple-making and church planting training.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;3.27.4&#8243; border_style=&#8221;solid&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Personal characteristics required:<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Mature Christian with teaching and training gifting; able to live and work with a small team in a remote small town; passionate about gospel ministry.
