In 2021, A bipartisan delegation of former U.S. Congressmen & a U.S.special envoy traveled to South & North Sudan for peace discussions soon after the coup in North Sudan. Then in 2022, another delegation of 12 former U.S. Congressmen (six republican & six democrats) & a U.S.special envoy, visited Juba, South Sudan for a follow up visit.

Trac5 was part of a private international coalition that helped release 18,000 Afghans left behind after the U.S  departure in 2021.

Two trips in 2019 and 2020 *In Progress*

(Turkey) - For 19 months, TRAC5 quietly engaged three heads of state, working alongside Congressman Robert Aderholt's office, as well as other regional political, religious and business leaders to assist in Pastor Brunson's release.  Andrew was thankful and graciously wrote a letter to President Trump.  We are excited to follow what God has planned for Andrew in this new chapter.

(Sudan) - Working with two U.S. Congressmen and others to release two Christian pastors Rev. Hassan Abduraheem Kodi Taour and Abdulmonem Abdumawla, imprisoned for life in Sudan. It was made possible by our long-standing spiritual and relationship-based diplomacy that resulted in pardons given directly from President Omar al-Bashir. Our Crisis Response Team was deployed to Sudan, partnering with Congressman Trent Franks, Congressman Tom Garrett and Hardwired to continue a nearly 100% success rate of releasing persecuted believers around the world.
(See also the related pardon of Pastor Petr Jasek earlier in 2017).

Trac5's CRT deployed to Sudan, partnering with Hardwired (NGO) to release Christian prisoners including Petr Jasek (Czech) who was given 20 years to life in prison. Petr was released largely because of a long standing record of "friendship diplomacy" established by Trac5 & its partners. A Press Release from Hardwired can be found HERE

Trac5 was invited to address world leaders at the UN - presenting the unique Jesus-centric strategy and sharing ideas about how to defeat radicalism.

Brussels is still on lockdown from the terror bombing at the airport just days before. Trac5 is deployed to present our ground-breaking ideas and Jesus-centric strategy to European leaders, some of which can be viewed in the video below. This unique diplomacy has worked to undermine the core principles contributing to radicalism and religiously motivated conflict.

(Central African Republic) - Our Crisis Response Team  made two trips in response to the Muslim/Christian war. As a direct result of the 1st trip, 2 hostages, both French citizens, Claudia Priest, Father Gustave were released in 24-hours and days later, C.A.R. Minister of Youth and Sports Armel Sayo were set free as a result of the powerful message of reconciliation. (See link below to the milita’s testimony). Moreover, factions returned to the “peace table.”  On the 2nd trip to CAR, a peace treaty signed by 10 factions and several powerful encounters of reconciliation and common ground between Muslim and Christian militia leaders. Our quantifiable impact was also measured by the release of child-soldiers and sex-slaves held by these militia groups. Our Team also helped to provide 6000 meals to feed refugees in an internal displacement camp. See video testimonies:

Twice Trac5 dispatched CRT member and seasoned peacemaker Dr. Jeff Burns as part of a larger team, to pray with the regime resulting in the release of Meriam Ibrahim. Meriam was imprisoned while birthing a baby in chains; she was sentenced to death for refusing to renounce her faith.

Trac5's CRT presented Iranian leadership with an alternate spiritual path, directed personally to the court system that resulted in the release of two Iranians, Marzieh Amirizadeh & Maryam Rostampour, imprisoned for 255 days as “converts to Christianity”. They were charged with apostasy and blasphemy. If convicted they would have been executed.

Trac5's CRT deploys to Sudan to pray with Sudanese president Omar al-Bashir who then decided to drop the flogging punishment of a UN employee, Lubna al-Hussein, for dressing in pants.

(Afghanistan) - The South Korean government requested our Crisis Response Team to come to the aid of the 21 Christian missionaries kidnapped by the Taliban. Two were sadly murdered during their captivity. Our team initiated our model, a  process of engagement and was making final preparation to pray with the Taliban captors in Afghanistan when we were ordered to “stand down”.  As a consequence, we passed this important project along to our like-minded friends at the International Center for Religion and Diplomacy (ICRD), who under the leadership of Dr. Doug Johnston, ultimately succeeded in securing the release of the 21 remaining captives. 

(Sudan) - Our Crisis Response Team was deployed nearly a dozen times to Sudan over 18+ months praying with President Omar al-Bashir, working directly with the U.N. secretary-general and the U.S. envoy to Sudan, helping to reverse President Bashir ’s reluctance to deploy U.N. Peacekeeping Forces, contributing to the mitigation of the genocide, mass rapes and 2.2 million humans that were displaced. 

Recent UN reports on the transformation state: "The situation in Darfur has changed radically for the better since the height of the conflict.."  Jean-Pierre Lacroix - UN Under-Secretary, Peacekeeping Operations. Finally, in 2017, the Ali Karti, the Sudan Foreign Minister during the Darfur war, openly attributed our team with the success of ending the Darfur debacle. See video testimony of Sudan Foreign Minister, Ali Karti:

2003-2005: Trac5's relational diplomacy led to multiple prayer meetings with Sudanese leaders & the president which contributed to a successful peace treaty in a Muslim/Christian civil war that killed over 2 million people.

Trac5 was part of a team facilitating private prayer meetings of competing presidents, Joseph Kabila & Paul Kagame of Rwanda in Washington, DC leading to 2002 ceasefire and the Pretoria Accord establishing a Transitional Government of National Unity

Trac5 had two private meetings with the Saddam regime and was instrumental in his decision to allow the return of UN Weapons inspectors in an attempt to avoid war. 

Trac5 contributed to a successful & peaceful presidential candidate’s transition of power and subsequently a positive transformation of the country.

Trac5 held a prayer meeting with President Musharraf that led to release of over 20 Christian men imprisoned for "blasphemy" to care for their starving families left behind unable to work under “Sharia Law”.

Trac5's CRT engaged in private meetings with the Gaddafi regime starting in 1999 and contributed to the long sought release of the Libyan 1988 Lockerbie Bombing suspects. 270 men, women and children (189 Americans) were murdered on Pan AM flight 103. Gaddafi accepted responsibility for the bombing and paid compensation to the families. Our follow-up efforts over 1.5 years in spiritual diplomacy with Libya contributed to breaking down decades of resistance with the West and in 2003 Libya also denounced WMDs and their radical/militant agenda.

Trac5 helped to facilitated a Muslim/Christian team that encouraged the successful Abuja Peace Accords

A Trac5 team visited the Sahara, breaking bread with President Mohamed Abdelziz. After prayer and a scripture study, the president committed to reinstate the 1991 Ceasefire with Morocco
