South Sudan is the world's youngest nation - established in July 2011.

In December 2013 conflict broke out and since then over 10,000 people have been killed and two million people have fled their homes in fear of violence.

Four million people are now in need of URGENT food aid, water and medical treatment, including one million people from the Presbyterian Church of South Sudan - PCI's partner church.

The United Nations has described the crisis as the "worst in the world".  South Sudan is on the brink of the worst famine the world has seen in 30 years.

Please pray and give generously - that we may play our part in saving lives and restoring hope to the many who face this catastrophic situation.
