In 1999, Lilly Klepp heard a speaker describe the plight of orphans and widows in southern Sudan. For more than 20 years, Sudan had been in a vicious civil war that had left more than 2 million people dead, 6 million homeless and thousands of women and orphans with no food and nowhere to turn. Stirred by the message, Lilly prayed, “Lord, what can I do?” The Lord’s response: “Sell all you have and give it to the poor.” Believing that this was God’s call to them, Dennis and Lilly Klepp sold all of their belongings and moved to Sudan in 2001 to begin their journey of giving to the poor with their lives.

What began with the clearing of land and the making of bricks by hand, quickly became a home and haven for orphans in the region. Today known as Harvesters, it is still in the business of providing environments to bring relief to the poor from war-torn South Sudan. Listen in to Lilly Klepp’s story.
