“FOR OUR TEAM, IT’S MORE THAN A NUMBER, IT’S AN ECHO FROM HEAVEN”
We’ve returned from Madagascar with our hearts deeply moved by what God has done: 13,002 people made the decision to follow Jesus, and for our team, it’s more than just a number – it’s an echo from heaven. Together We Plant is based in 13002, a working-class neighborhood once marginalized, but one God has chosen to make a missionary base. A few years ago, we received a word: “From Marseille to the nations.” We believed it, carried it in prayer, proclaimed it with faith, and over the past few years, it has taken shape and come to life before our eyes. 13002 was the postal code of our sending place, but today it’s the launch point to the nations. With nearly 107 sermons preached on the streets of Madagascar – in markets and directly to the young generation – over 26,000 people heard the message of the Gospel. Here are the key results of the mission along with powerful testimonies from team members:
Duration : 10 days
Evangelism events : 107
People reached : 26 572
Decisions for Jesus : 13002
Healings : 111
Brochures distributed : 20 651
Alina Böhm : “A baby was healed!”
Earlier in the day, during the midday sermon, something incredible happened : a baby was healed ! The child couldn’t grasp objects or walk. His fingers and toes were clenched and stiff. But after prayer, Jesus touched the baby and for the first time, he was able to firmly hold a pen in his hand ! We then prayed for his legs, and although he still couldn’t stand on his own, his toes had straightened !
Kaisa Fischer : From orphans to daughters of the living God…
The young generation was free this week, but the Holy Spirit led us to a place not even marked on the map. There, we found a group of 40 orphaned girls with whom we were able to share the Gospel. All of them prayed the prayer of salvation.
Zachary Geiger : “I received a word from the Holy Spirit: ‘hardware store’”
This morning, during prayer, I received a word from the Holy Spirit: “hardware store.” When I heard it, I didn’t even know what it meant it’s not a word I use. I had seen it on signs before, but I had to ask a friend to explain it. Later, we went out into the streets and suddenly saw that same word “hardware store” on a building right in front of us. We took it as a sign and set up there. Manuel preached the Gospel, and about 5 to 10 people raised their hands during the altar call and came forward. I then preached on healing. A man who had been coughing up blood the night before and suffering from severe chest pain while awaiting a doctor’s appointment was completely healed no more pain at all. Another man, who had been shot in the chest 10 years ago and couldn’t move his arms without pain, was also healed and regained full movement after we prayed.
Alexis Ferrand : “He said it felt like light was flooding him from the inside”
After I preached, a man came up to me. He told me he was tired of his alcoholism he was suffering and wanted to be free but wasn’t ready to give his life to Jesus. I took the time to share the Gospel with him again and, by God’s grace, he finally decided to surrender his life to the Lord. We prayed together for his deliverance. Afterward, he said he felt something leave him. He said it felt like light was flooding him from the inside. It was a powerful moment. His children were beside him we shared the Gospel with them too, and they also decided to give their lives to Jesus. It was beautiful to witness salvation entering an entire family.
