Contribution:
Just to remind everyone especially Lou Nuer sons/daughters and friends who are eager to help in this outrangeous situation, the contribution deadline is fixed no later than four days from now ( April 30/09). There is no question that most of us are students who barely get living expenses paid in full per month. However, the death of our people appears to be the worst that we must deal with.
We are asking all of you, sons/daughters of this great community to do what you can. If you think your situation is comparable to this, please add whatever you have; your dollar will make difference. Otherwise, our contribution rate is $100 per a person. It doesn't matter if you pay it in U.S or CAD dollar; as long as you pay $100 in either of the two, you will be in a good shape. You can pay more if God has increased your hand, brothers/sisters.
Lou Nuer Community in U.S.A , Australia as well as west Canada including wherever sons/daughters of Lou Nuer reside, we are asking your punctualities to finish your contribution as soon as possible so do we- the east Canada Lou Nuer Community.
As a suggestion, it would be nice to send any thing contributed for this case on the same day and to the same person that will be appointed by Akobo county's commissioner. That way, whatever we are going to send will be used for its intensities. By Chuol Wal Chak

Public statement
LIVING COURAGE: A DIALOGUE WITH OUR SISTERS
Wednesday, October 26, 2011, 6:00 – 8:00 p.m.
Organized by: KAIROS: Canadian Ecumenical Justice Initiatives, as part of the Women of Courage initiative which endeavors to make connections between gender-based violence in areas of conflict, whether the result of civil wars or the mistreatment of Indigenous peoples (also in the ancestral lands of Canada’s First Nations). Indigenous women everywhere, women who are migrant workers here, all of us – women and men – can share experiences as human rights defenders and peace-builders in our communities.
Sponsors: St. Charles Luaga Catholic Church at St. Joseph Parish, Kitchener, Hope Lutheran Church, Kitchener, The Presbyterian Church in Canada, St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church and Lou Nuer Canadian Development Services for Children and beyond (www.lounuer.net),
Attention: Local Communities of Kitchener-Waterloo and areas
For Immediate Release ― Friday, October 7, 2011
WHO: Rebecca Nyagai Kafi will be the primary presenter at the Kitchener event. Rebecca is an ethnic Nuer from Renk in the northern part of Upper Nile State, now located in the newly independent Republic of South Sudan. Currently living in Khartoum, the capital of the Republic of Sudan, Rebecca is an ordained Deaconess of the Sudan Presbyterian Evangelical Church. Since 2008, she has been chair of its General Women’s Group Office.
The Republic of South Sudan is the world’s newest country. And yet, for all of the optimism created by its founding, it is also a country where 90 percent of women can neither read nor write and where women, in shocking numbers, die in childbirth. Rebecca’s work is dedicated to emerging from Sudan’s persistent conflict with a better situation for women and their families.
The Sudan Presbyterian Evangelical Church is a member denomination of the Sudan Council of Churches. Rebecca serves on its Peace Committee, working to ensure the full implementation of the 2005 Comprehensive Peace Agreement between the north and south.
Members of the community who would like to join the conversation are welcome to attend.
WHERE: St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church, Queen & Weber Streets, Kitchener, ON
