From Malakal to Thiangrial by boat on the Nile River

Most of the trip was sunshine, but about half the way there we got caught in a down pour and were under tarps and praying that the food would not get wet. What a blessing to have this time to reflect on our Creator, and see His mighty hand.

On This Rock

A village about 1 hour from Yabus

"...and on this rock I will build my
church, and the gates of Hades will not overcome it." Matthew 16:18

We went and worshiped here one Sunday with our brothers and sisters in Christ.

Yabus and my time there

Beautifully green, beautiful mountains, rivers, and God's children.

I was able to go out to surrounding villages and spend time with the women and children. Teaching literacy classes to many. The challenges are many for the people, but through it all you see such hope and joy in their faces. Why you ask? Because they know Jesus.

Many river trips and as you can see from the picture it is no easy thing to get across this river in rainy season. God provided every time we needed to get across.

Going to Yabus

This is the river that we cross from the landing strip to get to our compound. Our compound

consists of a brand new secondary school, housing (Tukel's or Safari Tents) for missionaries, student dorms along with staff housing, a community eating area, outdoor shower and outdoor toilet.

It is now rainy season in Sudan, so what once was all brown no is plush green, with much mud. Transportation is limited during this time so we are limited on when and where we travel.

What a privilege to be going to Yabus for the next 1 1/2 to 2 months. I am excited to see how God will work in me and through me. I eagerly anticipate what God has in store.

I will be joining a team, Eli, Bethany, and their boys; Isaac and Evan are currently in Nairobi awaiting a new baby. Phalice is the administrator for the secondary school and Katie is teaching literacy.

Pray for our health, and that we will bear much fruit.

Going Home to Sudan

I am released!!!!!!!. On January 18, 2004 God released me from my chains, AND THERE WILL NEVER BE A MORE POWERFUL MEANING OF THOSE WORDS!!!!!!,

Monday He released me to go back home to Sudan. The doctor said "Debbie you can go back to Sudan." I cried, I jumped for joy, I PRAISED my Savior Chirst Jesus I THANKED Christ Jesus, I danced with Jesus, and I stand in AWE of Abba Father, The Great I Am, His perfect timing, His grace and mercy. Thank you Jesus.

PRAISE HIS HOLY NAME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

He will enable you as He wants you to “be”

To Him be all the Glory!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.

April 26, 2008 We Were On Holy Ground

Who would have ever known what was going to happen on that day. There is nothing that takes Our Heavenly Father by surprise. God’s right hand was upon us, and He let us see a Miracle that day. By human standards there is no reason we are alive. But we don’t look to humans, we look to HIM the ALL POWERFUL, ALL MIGHTY; ALL SOVEREIGN, OMNIPRESENT, OMNIPOTENT, THE GREAT I AM, OUR LORD AND SAVIOR CHRIST JESUS

“He parted the heavens and came down; dark clouds were under His feet. He mounted the cherubim and flew; He soared on the wings of the wind, He made darkness His covering, His canopy around Him the dark rain clouds of the sky…The LORD thundered from heaven; the voice of the Most High resounded. He shot His arrows and scattered the enemies… He reached down from on high and took hold of me; (us) He drew me (us) out of deep waters. He rescued me (us) from my (our) powerful enemy from my (our) foes who were too strong for me (us). They confronted me (us) in the day of my (our) disaster, but the LORD was my (our)support. He brought me (us) out into a spacious place; He rescued me (us) He delighted in me (us).” Psalm 18 9-12, 16-19

To God be all the Glory. Glorify your name Father in all the World
