Active compassion for the persecuted in east africa by engaging gods people to intercede on (see schedule o continuation)
Programs
3 programs
Advocacy and general: persecution project is a community dedicated to exposing instances of christian persecution (ephesians 5:11), engaging fellow believers to intercede on behalf of the persecuted (isaiah 58:6-13), and bringing encouragement, consolation, and hope to our persecuted brethren (2 corinthians1). We encourage our donors to intercede on behalf of the persecuted and poor and inspire them to get active by joining persecution project in an area where it serves the people of sudan. Our supporters partner with us by starting where they are, using what they have, and doing what they can. Whether organizing walks for water, establishing prayer groups, or presenting persecution projets work before their civic groups and church congregations, many of our supporters become actively engaged in advocating for the needs of the sudanese people. (see part iii, ln 4b statement schedule o)
Transportation and logistics (t&l): working in the war-torn nuba mountains requires the use of a variety of locistical tools to deliver supplies safely and effectively for our various program activities. During the rainy season, roads in the nuba mountains becom impassable to even the heaviest of trucks, so quad bikes and motorbikes are often employed to deliver medicines and other emergency relief supplies to remote clinics and villages. In areas where insecurity exists, the safest available mode of transporttion is flights. The use of cargo planes minimizes the risk of injury to our drivers and workers by avoiding roads that are patrolled by bandits or soldiers. In 2024, persecution project conducted emergency relief flights facilitating the delivery of more than 96 metric tons of relief to the nuba mountains, the flights brought in medicines and medical supplies, family med packs, borehole spare parts, hospital building materials, vehicle spare parts, fuel, relief packs, emergency therapeutic food, tarps, audio bibles, motorbikes for pastors, etc. Unimog transport trucks continue to be used to facilitate distribution of the vital relief supplies throughout the year, even during the rainy season, with access to the nuba region year-round, persecution project has the ability to better coordinate outreach activities in a timely fashion and when the nuba people need it the most.
