Medical Mission
of Mercy

Dear ‌Friend,

A TERRIBLE CIVIL WAR CONTINUES TO RIP SUDAN APART. Rival factions, armed and supported by foreign powers, are committing horrible crimes against the people as they wrestle for control of the country. In some areas, people are starving. In other areas—where there is relative peace—basic services are overwhelmed by the influx of desperate people who have fled their homes.

To help bring relief and hope into this dire situation, Samaritan's Purse airlifted an Emergency Field Hospital and staff members to southeast Sudan in mid-December to a city called Gedaref. Two to three million fleeing people have encamped in the region. Our medical team found just one overcrowded maternity hospital there to serve this massive population. Fifteen to 20 women were in labor in one room of just seven beds. …

Sincerely,
