Several years ago I traveled to Nyamlell, Sudan with Kimberly Smith, President of Make Way Partners. Together we were overwhelmed with the needs of the people in Nyamlell and especially the 153 orphans that we met as they sat under trees attempting to get a Primary School education. There we met James Lual, the young man who found these children. James was one of the Lost Boys who had fled this same village 15 years before and was fortunate to make it to Nairobi after living many years in refugee camps in Ethiopia and Kenya. In Nairobi, James became a Christian and decided to go back to his home area to care for children who lost their parents during other invasions that were sponsored by the Muslim Khartoum government. We called James the "Lost Boy who was Found" because he went back to Nyamlell and found his parents who thought he died with many of the other children who fled. James has stayed in Nyamlell to take care of now over 400 children through his partnership with Make Way Partners.

African Leadership trains church leaders in more than 20 countries and provides relief and development supplies in places like Nyamlell. In Nyamlell, we partner with Make Way Partners to stand with the Christians who have suffered persecution for their faith and now need the assistance of their Western brothers and sisters to grow the remnant of remaining Church in Sudan. African Leadership is pleased to be a financial supporter of the partnership between Make Way Partners, Kimberly Smith, and James Lual of New Life Ministry. The Lord has allowed us to work together to build a dormitory for 200 orphaned girls, a medical clinic, a school, and a church. Now, we trust others will join even this year to help us provide the funds to house 200 orphaned boys.

I have been in many places in Africa during the last 20 years of travel, and I have never seen a more desperate situation than what I've seen in South Darfur. Many of the children at the New Life Ministry orphanage and school
came there after they fled the fighting and genocide in Darfur.

We commend Kimberly and James for their step of faith to provide for the "least and the lost." I endorse their ministry and encourage others to get involved in helping to train these children in the way that they should go. Make Way Partners has shown the tangible love of God through their ministry of providing food, shelter, permanent housing, education, jobs, and medical care along with their evangelical message.
