Leeds Diocese is linked with the Episcopal Church in Sudan.
The spirit of the link is partnership, so the link works both ways:
- We receive as much as we give
- We respect each other
- We listen to each other
- We pray for each other
- We work on shared tasks
Their aim is to support and encourage brothers and sisters who feel marginalised and oppressed in their own country, yet maintain their faith in Christ with great courage. There are opportunities to join a group visiting Khartoum as part of a planned trip to experience Sudan life and culture and see the church in action.
The link covers the 5 dioceses of Sudan:-
- Khartoum,
- El Obeid
- Port Sudan
- Wad Medani
- Kadugli
Initiatives they are involved with include:
- Building Schools
- Providing Relief
- Shokai Bible Training Institute
- Projects supporting women
- Supporting the church to operate effectively across the enormous areas of Sudan with things like transport
