As of May 28, 2026, Sudan remains engulfed in a protracted war that has devastated cities, villages, and critical infrastructure, forcing millions of people from their homes and leaving vast areas on the brink of famine. More than 14 million people have been displaced internally or into neighboring countries, while markets, hospitals, schools, and water systems have been destroyed or severely disrupted, making it extremely difficult for families to access food, safe drinking water, healthcare, and protection. Humanitarian organizations warn that some regions face confirmed or imminent famine conditions, yet insecurity, attacks on civilians, and restrictions on access are preventing life-saving assistance from reaching many communities most in need.

Let’s Pray:

Lord Jesus, we bring before You the people of Sudan, who have endured years of war, hunger, and fear with no clear end in sight. You see the mothers searching for even a little food for their children, the fathers who have lost their livelihoods and homes, and the countless families sheltering in camps or on the move with nothing but what they can carry—have mercy on them, O God. Stretch out Your hand to protect civilians from violence, looting, and abuse; shield women, children, the elderly, and people with disabilities from exploitation and attacks, and open safe corridors for those who need to flee to safety. We ask that You make a way for humanitarian workers to reach isolated communities with food, clean water, medicine, and shelter; remove obstacles, soften the hearts of those who control checkpoints, and grant courage and wisdom to all who risk their lives to deliver aid. Confront the leaders and armed groups who are fueling this war—bring their plans to nothing, expose injustice and corruption, and lead them to repentance, restraint, and genuine commitment to a just and lasting peace. Strengthen Your church in Sudan and among Sudanese refugees, that believers would be rooted in Your Word, filled with Your Spirit, and able to offer both practical help and the hope of the gospel in the darkest places. In the midst of hunger, grief, and exhaustion, reveal Yourself as the Bread of Life and the Good Shepherd, and let many in Sudan come to know You as their Savior, Healer, and King. In Your mighty name, Jesus, Amen.
