Operation Nehemiah's staff

Our Leaders

Meet our Staff and their families
Operation Nehemiah Missions International Inc., including South Sudanese and American staff under Operation Nehemiah's leadership structure, dedicated to the Lordship of Yeshua in all areas of life. Those who are directly associated with ONMI, including Founder, Overseer, directors, pastors and their families, are not a collection of autonomous individuals. These associates consequently bear certain responsibilities and obligations within the organization for the implementation of its vision and goals.

ONMI 's Board of Elders has compassion, love, and understanding of the plight of the persecuted church in South Sudan from Khartoum's Islamic oppression. Together with our ground leadership team in South Sudan, we are now involved in rebuilding, the family, the church and community from the ashes of Islamic war of persecution and internal conflict from ground up for the Glory of God. We thank God for all our benefactors here in the USA and the beneficiaries in South Sudan for taking part in fulfilling the vision of Operation Nehemiah in the Great Commission.
