Sudan Sunrise is a movement
of Americans and Sudanese Christians
and Muslims working to achieve reconciliation,
unity and the end of oppression in Sudan. 

Through grassroots reconciliation,
education and community building,
we lift up examples of peace and forgiveness
between former enemies as alternatives
to the history of violence in Sudan.






"… I am so humbled and deeply appreciative
of you and your organization, Sudan Sunrise,
in extending your hands to bring
the two divided communities,
Darfuri and South Sudanese, together…

I am here to do what I can
as the Head of the GOSS Mission-USA
to facilitate your project [Kimotong
Reconciliation Church] in any way that I can.

Thank you and God bless you!"


__Ezekiel Lol Gatkuoth,
Head of Goss Mission-USA

Southern Sudanese Olympian Lopez Lomong is partnering with Darfurian Muslim students from the University of Juba to rebuild the Catholic church in Lopez' home village of Kimotong, Budi County, Eastern Equatoria State. 

On January 18, two of our Ugandan builders joined Lopez and Rudwan Dawod, President of the Darfur Students Association, along with five additional Darfurian Muslim students, to travel to Kimotong.  they had hoped to get government help for transportation, but instead had to take a bus to Torit where they were disappointed to learn that they could not buy a wheelbarrow and machetes, and that other tools and building materials were in short supply. 

After buying what they could, the team traveled to Kimotong where they began making blocks and clearing the land in preparation for building the Kimotong Reconciliation Church.
