(Sudan)–Elsewhere, Sammy Tippit Ministries says they’ve had a major breakthrough in their work. “We have received governmental permissions to preach an evangelistic meeting in a stadium in Khartoum, the capital city of Sudan. All of the Christian churches in the country are gathering together to sponsor this meeting and it will be a major event for the believers, and I think, a major step forward.” Tippit says that as the time for the meetings draws closer, the need for prayer intensifies. He adds that a lot of the groundwork has already been laid. “We’ve been praying for unity in the churches. We’re praying for thousands upon thousands of people to come to know Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. We’re praying for the glory of God, that this would be more than just a set of meetings. And, we would ask you to pray for the safety for the team. There are security issues and we really need desperate prayer.”
