THE ANGLICAN CHURCH OF SUDAN (ACS)
REACTION AGAINST THE CONSPIRACY BY EPISCOPAL CHURCH OF SUDAN (ECS)

THE REPORT ABUOT THE PLOT FROM SOURCE EYEWITINESS
The Anglican Church of Sudan (ACS) of the diocese of Duk which was recently born
as a new denomination did not enjoy the freedom of worship spelt out clearly in
the constitution of Sudan simply because its rival, Episcopal Church of Sudan as
a denomination failed to compete spiritually and uses wrong propaganda to
disstabilise the Anglican progress in the country and more particularly in
Joungulei province (state).

For this reason the synod held by Episcopal Church of Sudan at around Mading Bor
town came out with some plots which are totally and completely unheard stories in
the history of the church in Sudan in that some statements are talking about life
threats to spearhead people like Bishop John Machar as the major leader of the
denomination in Duk Diocese. The major key problem it is not the badness of the
Church now it is Bishopric position. Therefore Nyarweng said especially the
members of Episcopal Church of Sudan it shouldnot be aperson from Hol, This
however, has resulted in the very synod of Episcopal Church of Sudan held around
late December 2005.

In connection to the above, their statements are analysed below.

1. It was resolved in the meeting that the Duk Padiet as Payam or some Payams
is to be united to the Diocese of Kongor and that 6 (six) archdeaconries were
promoted as part of Kongor Diocese.
2. According to an eyewitness source, they had proposed to have reported to
SPLM/SPLA government or the government of Sudan by writing a letter telling them
that the Anglican Church of Sudan would be banned from using a common prayer book
and as well as the bible that they should improvise their own printed bible and
prayer book
3. Eyewitnesses also stated that Ven. Machar Aweng with other four
archdeaconries had worked out their secret organization that will work to
destroying some lives. This happened because of formation of committee members
namely as Ven. Machar Aweng as chairperson, Peter Ajak as deputy, Peter Bol Riak
as Secretary, Simon Thon Garkuoth treasurer and deputied finally by Paul Majok
Anyang. According to this source they will spend some money to employ agents of
destruction or those who will kill and report back to their office for funding
their plan. This are terrorism acts on the church. Adding that the government of
Sudan is to work as a tool in stopping the Anglican Church from operating in
Southern Sudan in general.
4. Fourthly, their main target is the Hol Congregation who had the majority
followers of the new church that Southern Sudan Government should force all
congregation to the Episcopal Church of Sudan by all means.
5. Fifthly, Machar Aweng pointed at some individuals as supporters of Bishop
John Machar that he is Arab supporter, therefore, individual supporters should
take note of that.
6. They named the church to be for Duk Padiet as a community church not
universal like other churches. Meanwhile, ACS covered all southern Sudan with the
following Dioceses; Awiel, Rumbek, Yirol, Twice-East, Waat, Akobo, Nasir etc.
7. The diocese of Kongor according to them is legitimate for managing
resources in swampy and marshy areas (Toch) around Duk Padiet that they should be
developed for the benefit of Kongor Diocese in that Assistant Bishop Diing Ajang
is legitimate bishop rather than the self proclaimed Bishop John Machar .
8. Their committee to execute the ideas giving forth orders of following
people as mentioned in 3 above
Five committee members 1. Chairman – Ven. James Machar Aweng
2. Deputy chairman – Ven. Peter Ajak Majok
3. Secretary – Ven. Peter Bol Riak
4. Treasurer – Ven. Simon Thon Garkuoth
5. Deputy treasurer – Ven. Paul Majok Anyang

Moreover, Ven. James Machar Aweng concluded that he had no fear to give up the
ideas because of his birth right in Duk Padiet. Both parents are natives of the
land of Duk. That he feared nothing including imprisonment if that can happen to
him.

The humlitiating of christains in Duk County will disintegrating The Community via
the Church

We are hereby, appealing to all the citizens of Sudan to know what is happening in
the Church in Duk.It is somethings unique in the church history since the creation
of the world That christians themselves turning to politics of division instead of
uniting people from all background.
To begin with, Since the inception of the Anglican church of Sudan, the split of
the Episcopal church of Sudan. When the church has disintegrated to several
Denominations it has caused the bitterness and hatred amongst congregations from
Epicopal church of Sudan against the Anglican Church of Sudan which has led to
conspiracy for the blood shed which they have planned.
In the light of the above, the document has been extracted from an eyewitness
source with full information.It is not an assumption but facts. These are the
facts with evidence which we would like to alert all our brothers and sisters
about. It had happened in the year 2004 the SPLM/SPLA it has permitted the church
with a permit, it was rejected by the Commissioner of Duks county when he was
confronted with the document for the freedom of worship, all the elements have
stopped their false claims against the Church. Now they have come up with the plot
which is terrorism acts.
Nonetheless, the core of the problems are some in individual in Nyarweng
community those who belong to Episcopal church (ECS) These people have generated
the false propaganda. They called the church the Tribal church of Hol but the
church is universal, it is neither our church nor for an individual it is God’s.
At this point, they planned for the destruction
The illustration of the following is detailed accroding to the mentioned dates
The statements recorded to refer to individual statements spoken. on 15/12.2005.
Rev peter mabil makuei had decided to attack the Anglican congregations in Pawai
Archdeaconry on the visiting day of the Rt Rev John machar Thon. He came voilently

officer mr Deng mier was nearby and he intervened. He has taken both to police
station in Poktap for further investigation for Cause of the attack. By then They
were arrested for a couple of minutes and were later released. Ven Daivd maynok
Lual remained in the cell for (13) days waiting for trail. When he was released
after (13) days he went to court for the judgement, he was fined for SD 400,000.
Lastly Rev peter mabil said “I will send you ( kuien-kuien)” meaning “I will send
you gangsters to night”
On 17/12/2005 in the meeting held at Poktap . Mayen Manyok commended that the
Anglican should have boundary not to cross to other side of Nyarweng. Before
that 9/6/2005 the following persons whose names appeared below Ven David Deng
Duop, William Makuach Machot, Joseph Monykuer Kuol were arrested in Poktap
container spending many days in prison arrested by former payam administrator Mr.
Reech Deng Kuir. He rejected the document by saying it was written by rebel
leader Dr. Riek Machar Teny . unless bearing signature of former commissioner
John Duom Warabek and same statements were repeated by the deputy commissioner
Deng Lual in different occasion
Sometimes on 28/6/2005 Daniel Deng had also arrested (6) church elders with
unknown reason. He concluded that he do not want any new denomination to exist.
Shortly on the 5/7/2005. They priests were also arrested and were fines

2. Ven. David Manyok Lual SD 400,000
3. Ev. William Makuach 200,000
4. Ev. Joseph Monykuer 500,000

GRAND TOTAL SD 1,600,000
In addition to this,They were warned to remove their priest vestments and have
civilian clothe like any body around. And declared to have dismissed in their
service by labelling them as collaborators of rebel leader Dr, Riek machar
Teny.
Later in the year on the 28/11/2005 Joseph monykuer was rearrested because he
did not pay the required fines on time then he was given corporal punishment
instead of fine sentence by Lt Aleer Apam Chengkuach with 48 lashes on the
battock. Telling him to stop it that he had brought disgrace to Nyarweng.
In this regard separation was declared by the Chief Mr Chuei Leek Saying that
they have nothing to share with Hol.By then there was no longer any more
compromise left He was frank that the Bishopric position could not be taken by
Hol. He was sure of his words that in Nuer saying (Tee wuur kee mi gaathe)
meaning he is hoping that he has nothing to fear because the government is on
their side.
Finally, on the 19/12/2005 Rev Peter mawut Deng again planned an attack
againest Bishop’s team and has mobilized 15 people to shoot the Bishop ( Ba Duai
mac) meanig that I will attack him, Likewise ,the payam Administrator mr mabil
Awan repeated the same word again he was for the attack, He said that the
unacceptable Bishop should not come here again.

Last but not least,This is an open letter to every body for what might happen in
case of any the community may know It is going to be circulated to
particulars in question of mananging the country Southern Sudan.

position of the Anglican Church of Sudan as pertains to the above points.

1. We had taken seriously by writing this letter to our government in
Southern Sudan and our leaders as well for them to know what kind of situation is
prevailing in the region but as the church we had no intention as such far is
taken by our counterparts. We wanted to remain peaceful as our saviour taught us
in the bible only to win souls to Christ not to destroy as our brothers thought.
Therefore our government may take note of it and probably address it if necessary
in their capacity.

2. The Anglican Church of Sudan will remain a distinct denomination from ECS
in accordance with the constitution provision of our beloved country Southern
Sudan

3. The Anglican Church of Sudan will not allow division among its members and
their counterpart congregations. We are part of world united denominations with
some ecumenical views not a tribal church, it is catholic, more accomodative in
Southern Sudan and willing to enjoy unity of the people of southern Sudan and
Sudan in general as well.

4. Our stand in political issues were not in any way motivated in
collaboration with Arab politicians because church politics is spiritual right and
saves souls. Therefore, our stand with SPLM / SPLA since the movement begun
will remain the same as nothing will change it whatsoever.

5. In response to the usage of resources, the church does not own resources
but we are shareholders in managing resources alongside the government. Therefore,
owning resources is totally misinformation about government policies. We shall
remain shareholders not like them who claim expenditure at their own capacity.

6. Also on the accusation of the supporters, we believe in personal choice in
coming to faith not by force, more or less spirituality. We are all equal before
God. That is our belief is not less credited. We do not judge which denomitation
is better than the other.

Finally on radical decisions to be taken in things to do with fighting and
assassination are not in the terms of our reference. As a church we advocate for
peace, love and unity of our people in various denominations.
Conclusion Our last word is that the document was extracted from an eye witness
who claims responsibility. In case of any investigations that the Anglican church
of Sudan will suffer government persecution in which we do not believe.

So if that is going to happen for them to execute their plans in February
according to the document acts as a notice to all bodies in human protection in
Southern Sudan. Furthermore, our faith is not pessimistic but completely
optimistic looking to contribute in development and harmony of people of our new
country Southern Sudan.

Machar Aweng was once a supporter of Arabs. He has just joined the movement in
April 2004. He came ordained from reformed church led by Bishop Gabriel Rooric
and is currently accusing people of being supporters of Archbishop Rooric,
although he was the first man to follow the reformation of the church in norhern
Sudan, his rection was because he was promised to be Bishop of Duk Diocese this
is what has turn to be enemy against church and plaaned for conspiracy.Therefore,
his accusations cannot be valued by the Sudanese. He is a liar.
