Supporting the work of Rev. John Chol Daau in South Sudan — featured in the new documentary Christians in the Mirror.
Rev. John Chol Daau is a South Sudanese Anglican priest from the Diocese of Bor and a former Lost Boy of Sudan who has returned as a missionary to his native country. His ministries are established on Christian principles and doctrine, firmly rooted in biblical statements of faith, and uphold apostolic teachings and Anglican traditions.
In this 3-minute video, Rev. Daau recounts why he founded the Good Shepherd Academy in South Sudan.

Originally established to empower masses of untrained Christian leaders primarily in the diocese of Bor, GSCS started as a mobile program for refugee clergy and lay leaders of the Episcopal Church of Sudan (Anglican).

More than 1000 church and community leaders have undergone training on various courses including theological, leadership, development, peace and reconciliation courses.

Currently, 2 million South Sudanese are internally displaced in South Sudan, while another 2 million are refugees in neighboring nations.
