Our National Pioneers Initiative (NPI) in Madagascar entered a brand new season of impact and effectiveness with the release of a number of new local missions workers from the town of Fort Dauphin in the south of the island. In the two short months since commissioning this additional group of pioneers, we have seen 1,573 commitments to Christ and the baptism of many new believers in the remote villages in and around Fort Dauphin!

This group of pioneers, mostly young, unmarried people from diverse denominational backgrounds, are clearly leaving their mark in this region. We know that, with the guidance of the Holy Spirit, they will continue to impact entire communities with the Gospel. We are also excited about further equipping this group with child evangelism courses during upcoming group sessions.

Please pray for our new pioneers in the south of Madagascar. Pray that they would be presented with more opportunities to share the good news of Jesus with isolated communities who would not otherwise hear the Gospel. Pray for good health, safety, and – most importantly – many open hearts ready to receive the truth!
