‘WHOLEHEARTED’ IS AN AFFILIATED MINISTRY UNDER THE
DEPARTMENT OF TRANSFORMATION LEADERSHIP CHURCH
AND COMMUNITY (TLCCE) OF ACROSS SOUTH SUDAN
ACROSS is an interdenominational Christian organization based in South Sudan working to transform lives and communities through partnership with the global church, other organizations, and the communities they serve. Working with communities in a dialogue of equals, ACROSS seeks biblical transformation in all sectors. Through training programs and local resources, ACROSS works to understand and engage root causes of problems from the perspective of those affected. A holistic approach, one for the whole person and whole community, is necessary for creating meaningful relationships and authentic change.
As a para-Church organization, ACROSS is a central link in a larger network of partners for transformation. A host of international partners and donors support the ministry of ACROSS with funds and human resources, while also offering a platform for dialogue and strategizing. Local partners within South Sudan include churches, local organizations and the communities where we work. ACROSS plays a role in connecting the worldwide Church and the South Sudanese Church.
