Teach us the word of God…
AIM are seeking to strengthen the work which has begun amongst the unreached Laarim in South Sudan and to fulfil their request to have the word of God taught to them. Phil Byler shares;
The Laarim live in the Boya Hills of South Sudan, a rugged and hilly terrain with rich savanna, high grasslands and scrub bushes. They live in small settlements, with social and cultural life centred around cattle, with livestock being their only known natural resource. They breed them, eat their meat, use them as dowry to get a bride, drink their blood and milk, and sleep on their hides. Raiding and stealing of cattle is a question of honour and valor. Because of this, they are involved in long standing feuds with their neighbours.

How do you prepare for a week living with people whom you have never met before and share no common language with, in a culture totally alien to your own?
Approximately seven people groups in South Sudan have never heard the good news of Christ. Why? Because they are some of the most difficult people on earth to reach.
