Dear Friends and Prayer Partners,
We want to share with you the joy and impact of what God is doing through the ministry in Dongola, even in the midst of ongoing war and uncertainty. Our heart and vision remain the same:

• To preach the gospel.
• To Disciple believers,
• Bring healing, and
• Raise workers through the Discipleship Training School (DTS) to serve communities and share the love of Christ.

Trauma Healing Ministry
Last week we completed a Trauma Healing group that ran for two months with 11 participants and one facilitator. 

It was a powerful and life-changing journey, helping participants experience deeper healing and a closer relationship with the Lord. Many shared strong testimonies of transformation.
One woman shared how she had lived with deep trauma from verbal abuse and rejection. She struggled with depression, anxiety, and anger—even feeling anger toward God. At one point, she attempted to take her own life. Through the Trauma Healing group, she surrendered her life fully to God and began to grow spiritually. She testified that God’s presence removed her anger, rejection, anxiety, and heaviness. Today she feels free and filled with peace.

Mercy Ministry Outreach
Last month, YWAM Dongola partnered with a local church to visit displaced families in Al Dabba, three hours from Dongola. We distributed clothes, blankets, and shoes. The camps are very large, with around 4,200 families and more than 26,000 people. The needs are great—physical, emotional, and spiritual—and we are committed to continuing to serve them.
 
DTS Starting Soon – Urgent Financial Need
In four days, YWAM Dongola will start the DTS with 20 students—the exact number we have been praying for. These students are preparing to be trained, discipled, and sent to serve during this difficult time of war. However, we have not yet received the financial support needed for the school.
We urgently need partners to help cover the DTS budget, student support, teaching materials, and ministry costs. Your prayers and financial gifts are crucial to keep this training running and to continue raising workers for the harvest.
 
Prayer Requests

• For two new Trauma Healing groups starting soon
• For full financial provision for the DTS
• For Mercy Ministry outreach to displaced families
• For protection, strength, and wisdom for the team and students

Thank you for standing with us. Even during war, God is calling, and His workers are responding. Together, we can continue discipling believers, bringing healing, and sharing hope.
