Rev. Dr. NikkelRev. Dr. Nikkel

The Rev. Dr. Marc Nikkel (1950-2000) was a priest of our diocese who dedicated his life and ministry to the people of Sudan. He is remembered there as a teacher and evangelist who was instrumental in the exponential growth of the Christian faith during the 1980's and 1990's and as a peace-maker who helped bring together more than two thousand feuding tribes in southern Sudan. We celebrate the Feast of Marc Nikkel on September 3, the anniversary of his death.

The Marc Nikkel School, Jonglei, Bor Diocese, Sudan

For years our diocese has enjoyed a relationship with the Province of the Episcopal Church of Sudan. Most of that time, we relied on the ministry of our missionary, the Rev. Marc Nikkel . After Marc's untimely death in 2000, we cast about for new ways to express our solidarity with persecuted Christians in Sudan.
