Little Rena Story

In (2 Kings 5:1-4) we read about the story of Naaman and the captive young little girl from Israel. She courageously shared her faith with Naaman despite her age and God was able to heal Naaman as a result. Now, fast forward to the 20th century,there was a little girl named Rena Ali who, after accepting Christ as her LORD and savior at the age of seven (7), persuaded her parents to faith in Christ. Later, her parents became the first-ever Sudanese missionaries in another country.

In the 1990's, Rena was an elementary student and she knew and understood little (Matthew 5:14-16) "Ye are the light of the world...Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven"

Fast forward to November, 2022. After more than 20 years, she received a text message via her messenger (thanks to social media) from her former elementary teacher (Muslim) in Tripoli-Libya asking: "what do I need to do to be saved together with my only son?"

What a privilege to witness this amazing story that the LORD has been weaving over 20 plus years... and how amazing for my wife to be part of this incredible story!

My wife's story demonstrates clearly why Wau Hope Christian School's vision is "Jesus Christ- Centered- Education".

We believe that each little child at Wau Hope Christian School is an "arrow in the hand of a mighty God" (Ps.127:4) Together, you and I have the blessed opportunity to partner with what God is doing in Wau Hope Christian School to help these little one become a mighty strong and godly nation of South Sudan

"A little one shall become a thousand, and a small one a strong nation: I the Lord will hasten it in his time." (Isaiah 60:22).
