Sudan
Preliminary reports from our Sudan outreach in November 2005 have confirmed God's miraculous power and protection in the earth today. Our partner organization in Sudan, Global Quest Ministries, has reported great success amidst delays and other troubles.

About 160 tons of food arrived late on the last day of the crusade because of rebel activity on the road to Juba - the convoy ahead of ours was stopped, drivers were shot, and goods were stolen... our convoy turned back and waited about a week until the road was secured.

Volunteers put 20,000 food packs together which were distributed at 4 centers around Juba the week after the crusade. Greg Ford, of Global Quest Ministries, commented that they received many reports from the distribution sites of miracle healings, salvations, and "tremendous" ministry from the local church leaders & believers who were at the sites. At the crusade there were notable miracles among the Muslims - including 7 people who were blind being completely healed.

Out of the crusade and leadership conference a bible school was planted with 40 students in the inaugural class.

The food distribution caught the attention of the U.S. Consul which just opened an office in Juba, and the head of USAID for that region commented that the food came just at the right time because the harvest had been much, much less than anticipated and they expected severe food needs to manifest within the coming months.

Juba is a critical, strategic point for the New Sudan as it emerges from the Islamic north... let's continue to pray and trust the Lord that it will become a stronghold for the gospel and the kingdom of God.

Pakistan Earthquake Relief
LGFTH in the US just received 11 pallets of brand new tents for Pakistan (223 in total)! The tents are good-sized (roughly 3 meter by 4 meter) and top quality. They are "3 season" tents because of a netted vent, but the Pakistanis can cover the vent with plastic sheeting so no drafts come in. Now we're trusting the Lord for favor with Pakistan International Airlines for an immediate airlift to Islamabad at no charge... let's stand together in faith!

We have already been very active in working with the Christian Evangelical Fellowship of Pakistan in providing food, some blankets and relief supplies, and a truck to transport supplies into remote areas.

The latest report from our contact, Pastor Salik Barkat:
"Our last trip to the quake affected area was very successful. We took 100 good winter tents and just over 1.3 tonne of lentils and rice. People were very happy to receive the tents because they are very strong in the snowy season."
