Sudan: Dinka

SOUNDS OF GLOBAL WORSHIP:
SUDAN, DINKA

The US government has called the people of Southern Sudan the most persecuted people in the entire world.

Although a connection with the Dinka tribal people was not a part of Heart Sound's scheduled Sudan recording project, we were thrilled and honored that in the last days that we heard of this Dinka choir in the city. As you can see, they were not the least bit distracted that we were present with microphones, cables and cameras. Nor were they focused on the discomfort of the very hot make-shift studio.

Their pain and suffering had developed in them a hunger for worship, which had become their very life source, their food of survival. A gift is found in the impoverished and oppressed peoples of the world.

They may be last in the kingdoms of this world, but we are increasingly aware that they are the first in another.

Beautiful. So wonderful to see people worshiping the Lord in all corners of the earth. I pray for God's blessings on the Dinka.
