>OPINION

With heart set on returning to Sudan, work continues at home

>By Judith Gregory

[Diocese of Delaware] When you visit Sudan, people say that if you
drink from the Nile River, you are destined to return. So while in
Khartoum the summer of 2008, I concentrated on never drinking from the
Nile. As fate would have it, I slipped up -- once. The result? An
undeniable, intense yearning to return.

>So what does one do while waiting to go back?

First, I have been raising awareness about the work of the Mothers
Union in Sudan, a part of the Episcopal Church of Sudan (ECS). In
particular, I've been focusing on their need for a vehicle to travel
and do their work around the country. Maureen Lyons of Trinity Parish
and Danny Schweers of the Church of Saints Andrew and Matthew in
Wilmington have been working with me in this venture. More volunteers
are needed and welcome.
