Welcome to Zuri Mamur! ~by Vicky Bentley

Many of you have listened to Wes tell the story of General Mamur’s conversion to Christ. The bond of friendship and brotherhood between our families is a gift from the LORD. On 15 Mach 2012, General and his beautiful wife, Maria, welcomed their daughter into this world.


Zuri Mamur just hours after her arrival on 15 March 2012
We praise God together with them for this gift! Zuri means “beautiful” in Swahili, and let me tell you she really lives up to her name. I had the privilege of holding her and listening to her sweet angelic voice. When Zuri looks intently at something I see the same determined tenacity of her heroic father.

Maria is a mighty woman of faith and the perfect helpmate to General. General and Maria are boldly sharing the truth...I see them living out Philippians 2:15-16 for His glory.  We pray this family will bring revival, healing, and continued hope to South Sudan and we love you!

That you may become blameless and harmless,
children of God without fault in the midst
of a crooked and perverse generation,
among whom you shine as lights in the world,
holding fast the word of life…
Philippians 2:15-16
