Greetings in Jesus’ name!
We had a great time in Madagascar. We trained the trainers, received reports and planned the way forward.
We traveled with Helimission to some of the most inaccessible villages in hilly country without roads. But it was good to see how the Gospel is taking root.
We will need to work hard to expose the evils of a worldview that keep a society in bondage. Many bandits and rustlers also roam the area, shooting, looting and burning the villages. This plays havoc with students’ and trainers’ travel.
We now have 75 first- and 90 second-generation churches since beginning in August 2008. These are not mere statistics but a record of many miracles God continues to perform as His love is spread to those who have waited for the Gospel. We are trusting God to establish several more second- and third- generation churches in the next six months. We launched three more training centers in January 2010, which have already produced 45 first- and 60 second-generation churches.
Our survey has revealed that at least 12,000 villages do not have a Gospel witness. The need is vast, and the Good News can only be taken to those lost in darkness as the Church unites hands in the task.

Villagers Constructing a Church/School
We are hearing many testimonies of healings and deliverance. Hallelujah!! Entire communities are being impacted. It’s been good to see how many villages are taking their own initiatives in building churches. We praise God for what Pastor Pierre has done in facilitating several village schools in the areas where we now have Village Church Planting churches.

Rija and Wolf, who manage the Into Africa Project in the country, are doing an excellent job in supervising and training. It is good to see the progress made in translating the training materials into Malagasy.
Please continue to lift this growing and exciting ministry before the Lord.
Blessings,
Bruce
