Missions Focus : South Sudan


As an Every Nation family we have a passion for missions - birthed from God's love for the nations.

Psalm 2:8 - Ask of Me, and I will surely give the nations as Your inheritance...

This was God's promise to Jesus. That He will give Him the nations as His inheritance. As believers, we stand and are partakers of that promise.

As part of this blog I will be sharing news and prayer points from the nations. Intentionally directing our hearts, thoughts and prayers towards the nations - Jesus' inheritance. May the nations also be on our hearts...

South Sudan

On the 25th of February De Wet and Miemie Spies left South Africa to join the team in South Sudan to plant a discple-making church in South Sudan.

They got work in Juba working at CCC (Confident Children out of Conflict). From there they will build relationships with the locals and the expats and on the campus in Juba.

Here is the latest news from the team in Juba. Pray and trust with us for the work God is doing in South Sudan... If you receive any specific word for the team please mail it to me @ jaco.oldewage@enpta.co.za


* De Wet and Miemie arrived safely in Juba on Tuesday morning. They met the girls and staff at CCC and look forward to start their work there.

* We have a new addition to the team! Johannes Swart (photo attached) will be joining us on Monday, he accepted a job with Ignatius at ESP International - we look forward to his arrival!

* Ignatius and Louise's house was finished in record time and they were also able to put in a small pool - amazing blessing in this heat!

* Stevo has had some amazing conversations and deepening relationships with some of the men at Pub Church.

* Sanmari stands amazed at God's supernatural involvement in sending key people across their paths with ample opportunities to go deeper into God's Word together. 

* De Wet started his first connect group today with the South Sudanese men who work at ESP International.

Please pray intentionally with us for the following:

* For breakthrough in Stevo and Ig's business ventures - they are trusting for the right investors and proper funding before they can continue.

* For the right connections with the right people (men and women of peace) to find open doors into the various communities to share the Gospel.

* That God will continue to build and protect the unity in our team - in heart and spirit (Ephesians 4:1-3).

* That De Wet and Miemie's accommodation at CCC will also be completed in record time.

* That Miemie will have favour with the girls at CCC and be able to identify the leaders and disciple them thoroughly in the Word.

* For the right job for De Wet - one that will keep him in close contact with South Sudanese nationals.

* For the success of Jean's studies.

* That Louise will have favour with the teachers at her school as she works with them and reach out to them, also that her relationships with the girls at CCC would bear much fruit.

* That Johannes will have safe travels and settle in smoothly and comfortably in Juba.

Thank you team! We loved having a quick skype call with everyone at Pretoria's International Food Evening!! And we appreciate every one of you, from Paarl, Bloemfontein, Stellenbosch and all over the nation and beyond - together, we will see this nation transformed according to God's will!

Blessings

Team Juba
