Spiritually
Promoting Health
Seeing the need for on-going medical care, Servant’s Heart has opened two medical clinics that treat almost 35,000 patients each year. Many patients walk through the African bush for days to receive the hope of healing at these clinics. Ten midwives are also supported by these clinics and with their efforts, hundreds of healthy births now occur. Servant’s Heart sponsors training for local Sudanese to be employed at the clinics. Providing skills and employment offers stability and economic growth to these fragile communities as they move towards self-sufficiency. Leprosy (Hansen’s Disease) affects hundreds in this region. Servant’s Heart is launching the first Leprosy treatment program with the support of the Government of Southern Sudan and UN World Health Organization. We will provide healing to lepers and stop the spread of this debilitating disease.

Developing Literacy
Servant’s Heart improves community life and economic opportunity with education. By partnering with communities, attendance at Servant’s Heart schools is free. In return, school buildings are built and maintained by the local villages. Our three schools are the first schools ever in this region. Local leaders are trained and employed to teach nearly 3,000 students in grades 1-5. We believe God has called Servant’s Heart to Southern Sudan to bring His light and hope to a longsuffering people. Meeting the communities’ needs on multiple levels provides opportunities to share the gospel. As Servant’s Heart trains pastors and provides Bibles and hymnals in local languages, lay leaders are counseled on the teaching of Christian doctrine and churches are growing.
Shifting Paradigms
Servant’s Heart instills the “teach a man to fish” philosophy as we help communities cope with a wide range of needs. By leveraging local manpower, leadership and tribal structure, Servant’s Heart trains and employs local teachers, pastors and medical staff. Through creativity and cultural sensitivity, we motivate people to improve their own community. Your donations can assist by providing valuable resources to those who cannot yet provide for themselves. Please help us shift the paradigm by leading these villages from aid dependency to self-sufficiency. Your help can make a vital difference.
