Who and how we serve at PEACE

South Sudan has been ravaged by an impoverishing and debilitating war and it has affected every area of life for its people. PEACE International’s three-pronged solution is unique because it does not just treat the symptoms of the problem but looks to heal it at its source. The success of this self-sustaining model has been recognized by the Office of the Prime Minister. This model focuses on three primary areas: Educating children, equipping leaders and empowering women.

  • PEACE is dedicated to providing children with biblical education, trauma care and consistent meals

    Access to education is almost non-existent in many areas of South Sudan. Through the efforts of PEACE and your support, over 850 students receive a Christian education. Children from Pre-K through 7th grade are taught all academic subjects mandated by the Ministry of Education of Uganda, as well as trauma care and personal hygiene that helps prevent the spread of disease in their communities. Educating the children of South Sudan is the first step in creating a better future.

  • PEACE equips pastors with both Biblical and trauma training

    The civil wars that have raged in South Sudan have caused generational division among many of the indigenous tribes. To achieve a sustainable peace, tribes will have to decide they are willing to work together. PEACE provides trauma and peace building training so leaders will be equipped to take this message to people of all tribes.

    The leaders commit to a 2-year Trauma Healing and Peace Building training program from which they graduate upon completion. Over 100 leaders have completed this training and even more are looking to take part.

  • PEACE empowers women by providing skill + business training

    Poverty is an endless cycle when people become solely reliant on the charity of others. PEACE seeks to break that dependency cycle by training these women of South Sudan fundamental business, trade and agricultural skills empowering them to support their families.

    To date, over 150 women are excelling in this program and are starting to take control of providing for their needs.

  • 850+

    Students pre-K thru 7th grade. Includes quality academics, two meals per day, discipleship and trauma healing

  • 150 +

And this is just the beginning. The success that PEACE and Rosemary have had with the Olua 1 Settlement has been so prominent that the Office of the Prime Minister has asked that Rosemary bring PEACE’s formula of Educating + Equipping + Empowering to other settlements across the region.
