As of June 1, 2026, Sudan is facing a rapidly worsening hunger crisis in the midst of ongoing civil war, with nearly 20 million people experiencing acute food insecurity and some areas approaching conditions close to famine. Widespread displacement, collapsing health and food systems, disrupted markets, and continued fighting have left families without steady access to food, safe water, or medical care, while humanitarian agencies warn that more than 800,000 children under five are at risk of severe acute malnutrition this year if assistance cannot reach them in time.

Let’s Pray:

Lord Jesus, we lift before You the people of Sudan who are walking through the valley of hunger, fear, and exhaustion after months and years of conflict. You see the parents skipping meals so their children can eat, the mothers carrying malnourished babies to overcrowded clinics, and the elderly and disabled who are unable to flee from danger or reach aid—have mercy on them, O God. Stretch out Your hand to open the way for food, clean water, and medical supplies to reach every community in need; protect humanitarian workers and local volunteers as they travel dangerous roads and negotiate access, and remove every obstacle that keeps life-saving help away from those who are most vulnerable. We ask that You intervene in the hearts of leaders and armed groups: restrain violence, silence weapons, and bring deep conviction of sin, repentance, and a genuine desire to protect civilians and pursue peace. Strengthen Your church in Sudan and among Sudanese refugees, that believers would be rooted in Your Word and filled with Your Spirit, offering practical love, shared resources, and the hope of the gospel to their neighbors in this dark hour. In the midst of empty fields, shattered livelihoods, and empty stomachs, reveal Yourself as the Bread of Life and the Good Shepherd who does not abandon His flock, and let many in Sudan come to know You as their Savior, Provider, and King. In Your mighty name, Jesus, Amen.
