DESCRIPTION

Since the arrival of Christianity to Madagascar, the Gospel has moved forward and touched hearts through the example and sacrifice of brave and devoted Malagasy believers. Some of these pioneer Malagasy missionaries are still alive and actively serving the Malagasy church. Come to Madagascar, sit at the feet of these Godly men and women, hear their stories, and create ways to share those stories with the wider Malagasy believing community. There are still many parts of Madagascar without a strong Gospel witness. Help the stories of Malagasy missionaries to fire the next generation with a passion for those who haven't yet heard.
