Arrived in Tonj safe and sound with Siren!

 

Hi all, I am writing today from home Tonj, I am very glad to report that mission has been accomplished and the Tonj Community had received the only ambulance in Town.

For Your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom. You rule throughout all generations. The LORD always keeps His promises; He is gracious in all He does.  Psalm 145:13 

This ambulance is going to serve more than 20,000 people immediately and what perfect timing for the Ambulance to arrive, just in a couples of days with the help of World Gospel Mission, there is going to be a week long for eye surgeries (Cataract) camp. So there is double blessings, that bringing hope and joy to the people of the greater Tonj area. May the Holy spirit open the spirit eyes of the people who are  going to be minister to by the ambulance and the cataract eye surgeries.

Having said that, my trip from Juba to Tonj was interesting and very much what I anticipated South Sudan roads to be like. It took me 10 hours to drive from Juba to Yerol and spent the night there, it was FULL of pot holes and we had to do not more than 60 km/h and it’s 327 miles.

Along the way, I was blessed to see the Mondarie young men and women selling their harvest products. Many pumpkins, Maize and ground nuts, so it wasn’t just slow drive but to observe the blessings of God and how healthy the people on the villages around Juba.

There were couple spots we have found cars that got stuck in the mud and we thoughts we will get stuck too, I was a bit worried because the Ambulance doesn’t have a Winch, which is really helpful in the rain seasons, but we managed to get out of these places without getting stuck at all. God is Good.!!

We have spent the night in Yerol, arriving there late night and getting accommodation, literarily the last 2 beds available was god making and Him at work for me and Joseph.

We continued to move westward in the morning picking supplies in Rumbek. The Rumbek area are known for their Harsh treatment for Drivers, the Police specially forcing many Drivers to pay money, actually it’s grabbing, Again seeing God intervention without any hustle by them, the clearly Ambulance words and the red cross markes the Ambulance were very helpful.

From Rumbek onward to Tonj my heart start pounding faster, the excitement of seeing my family  whom I missed very much starting getting real and real.

What a Joy that filled my heart when Suzy and the kids came out to welcome me at the Bridge of Tonj, Man what a blessings to see my family whom I missed very badly the last 6 weeks I was away. they have even made a welcoming sign by the gate for me, what a privilege  man I am!!!!

You guys can imagine how everyone was happy and excited to see the Ambulance which made it  to the clinic, and it made it entrance to the town with siren and the lights signals, to my surprise the following morning the tonj town knew about the arrival of the Ambulance and I got many people congratulating me for that, and how happy they were for this great help and assistance to the town, I reckon that what I am expecting the following days, many congratulations and with cheerful smiles and happy faces.

Thank you for every one who was participated in the prayer walk last year and every one who gave towards the Ambulance, the people of Tonj are blessed more than you can imagine.
