The Challenge of Sudan

There are 200-300 languages and dialects in Sudan. Arabic is the official language. Functional literacy is only about 33%.

Over the years, GRN has produced recordings in 129 languages and dialects. About 65% of the people are Muslim, 24% Christian, and 11% traditional ethnic religions.

However, due to the civil war and persecution of believers in some areas, Christians have spread all around the country, leading to a multiplication of congregations in areas with many unreached people. (Statistics from 'Operation World', GRN and SIL.)

NotÃcias sobre Sudan

Focus on Sudan: Closing the GAP: With close to 300 languages spoken by the Sudanese people, there is still much work to be done if we are to close the gap and make the message of hope available to every indigenous people group. To this end, GRN is partnering with another mission to work towards this faith-stretching goal.

Spreading the gospel against odds: Christian Mission Aid's leadership training and discipleship programs make use of GRN materials and Saber players.

"Baptized" in the Nile: Many have been delighted to hear sermons and songs in their own Dinka dialect.

Once upon a time...: Tracking down the GRN recordist who made Dinka recordings nearly 30 years ago.

UK to Sudan - with love!: Kenny and Joan McKee, who lead the GRN work in UK, recently met up with 20 Sudanese bishops at a conference in Salisbury.

Bringing Encouragement: Our tapes are used not only to help unreached people hear of Jesus Christ but also to encourage and teach believers who live in villages beyond the road's end.

The cassette from 'home': "I have played the Good News cassette which has proven to be very helpful. These people are from the Nuba Mountains in Sudan. The cassette that I played to them was not just from their own country or province, but was from 'home'."
