Where We Work

Akot is a small village located in the Lake State of South Sudan. It is strategically located adjacent to an airstrip and a main road.

The population is unknown, however, prior to its abandonment saw around 38,000 visits per year. Due to an influx of refugees, the population has grown significantly.

Most of the population are Dinka Agaar, with a mix of other ethnic groups including Nuer, Atuot, and Bor. The Christian churches appear to be thriving there, led mostly by Episcopalians and Baptist local pastors.
