Four Corners Ministry Welcomes Two Students from Sudan to Alabama
FCM is excited to announce that two of our Sudanese friends, Bullen Timo and Andrew Elispana, have joined us in the United States to begin their college education at Southern Union State Community College in Wadley, Alabama.
FCM first met Bullen and Andrew in 2004 when Jimmy Sprayberry, FCM's Chairman of the Board, traveled to Sudan for the first time. Many of you had the chance to meet Bullen and Andrew when they came to the United States in 2006 to share their testimonies and educate us about the persecuted church in Southern Sudan. Since visitng the United States, FCM has been preparing to bring them to Alabama for their college education. FCM was proud to put Bullen and Andrew through high school in Uganda, where they just earned their diplomas, allowing them to be approved for admission into Southern Union.
Thanks to God's faithfulness, they are here and have just completed their first week of school. We encourage you to read more about their journey's and what they hope to do with their college education when they return to Sudan below.
FCM has taken a step of faith in bringing these two young men to Southern Union. We are trusting that God will provide all they need to complete their education and we look forward to testifying of Him doing just that with each of you.
We would like to ask each of you to help us in sharing their stories and raising support for them. If your church is interested in having these incredible young men share their stories during a Sunday morning or evening service, please contact Tripp@4cornersministries.org. You can also contribute toward their education efforts, by making an online contribution - be sure to note for "Bullen and Andrew" in the comments section.
Please be in prayer for Bullen and Andrew during this exciting adventure for them. They have noted how you can pray specifically for each of them below. Their emails are also below if you would like to send them a note of welcome and encouragement.
Bullen Timo
Your Name: Bullen Jangara Timo
Your Age: 23
Tell us about your family: My mother and sister live in Juba, Sudan and I lost my father during the war.
What are you studying? Business Administration and Management.
Why did you want to come to school here in the US?
For me to study in the US is very important because I will get the best education which I will not get anywhere in the world.
How do you plan to use your education when you return to Sudan?
I will use my education to help Sudanese people how to run their small business and how to use their money.
How was your first week of class?
My first week in school was very good and I have never dream of anything like this in my life. I am grateful to God because he have done to me.
How can people pray for you? I need prayers for my mother and sister in Sudan so that God will provide their needs and also for my studies here in the US so that God will provide for my school.
