Overview

Mission

Serving the vulnerable, the exploited, and those who are persecuted and targeted for their faith in Christ.

What it reported doing in 2024

Rabuna Fi: In 2024, Rabuna Fi God is able continued to disciple and equip women across South Sudan through daily teaching and weekly Bible studies. Seven active groups now meet in Nimule and surrounding communities, including Calvary Chapel Nimule, Rei Community, Motoyo West Anglican, Rock City Fellowship, and several gatherings among newly displaced families from the Murele tribes. Three women trained through Rabuna Fi were ordained as pastors through the Anglican Church of South Sudan and now lead outreach within the Mother's Union network. Two additional women have begun teaching in nearby IDP camps, multiplying the ministry's reach. Even in the teacher's absence, locally trained leaders continue weekly studies, prayer gatherings, and literacy classes - demonstrating that God truly is able to sustain and grow His work through faithful women.

Operating model

Revenue model
Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 82% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

MIXED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and revenue has grown recently. A relatively small share of voting board members are independent and few specific pay-setting methods are documented in the filing; unanswered boxes are not proof of absence.
