Our mission is to serve God through educating children and adults, advancing community development through farming and tree planting, clean water, healthcare and evangelism while partnering with individuals and organizations, for the spiritual, social and economic transformation of the South Sudanese people.

A Message From Our President

Dr. Donnie Brake

In 2005, we initiated the Boma Project as a Christ-centered endeavor to bring both spiritual and physical support to the Murle tribal community in Boma, South Sudan. We first began by building a Christian school to provide education for children grades K-8 and continued into community development.

All our efforts were grounded by a desire to serve the Lord and to share him with others. As a result, God has blessed us with many additional opportunities that I hope you see throughout this website. May God bless you as you view His work in Africa.

Our History

A group of Sudanese evangelical church leaders met in March of 2004 to formulate a plan to begin the process of restoring the lives of their people. After more than 2 decades of devastating war, these leaders believed that Christ and His Church held the only hope for a New Sudan.

Later in that year, SEA Partners was formed to promote and implement five initiatives: education, food security, clean water, community health and evangelism. As a US non-profit 501(c)3 corporation we began operating in South Sudan since 2005.
