Saturday, May 14th, 2011
The Evangelical Covenant Church of Sudan (ECCS) recently provided emergency relief supplies to 27 vulnerable families representing 508 people who are living in camps of internally displaced peoples (IDPs) in Sudan. With a grant from Covenant World Relief (CWR), the ECCS was able to provide each family with a bag of corn, a gallon of oil, some sugar and milk, tents, bed sheets and chlorine tablets for drinking water. These IDPs were located in Malakal, Upper Nile State, and in Bor, Jonglei State. You can see the regions pointed out on the map below:
