“They were on the run… searching for a place to hide, trying to think of somewhere near, running, desperate for a safe haven, carrying only what could fit in their hands, a bag or two, a child on one arm, and some clothing.” Hedd Thomas, World Renew’s Program Manager in South Sudan describes the perilous situation that lead 160 families to seek refuge near World Renew’s program area in Yei, South Sudan this past January. Like thousands of others in the country, these families were victims of horrific persecution and ethnic killings that have been happening in the country since December.
