Our family and team have safely returned home from Madagascar. 🇲🇬
There is a lot to process and say about this mission.
Part A of the trip in the City of Toamasina felt like an open heaven. It flowed like oil. Our crusade was the largest harvest of souls we’ve witnessed as a ministry. Night after night we experienced momentum and a move of God touching the city.
Part B, the capital city of Antananarivo was immediately met with resistance. Everyone could sense the shift. I felt tenacious and diligent in my spirit and was ready to plow, however I wasn’t anticipating what would take place next- a full on riot in the city with buildings burning down, rioters being shot, nation-wide civil unrest, and protest which ultimately forced the president of Madagascar to step down.
This led to something no evangelist wants to face- a canceled crusade. An entire year of planning and prayer all to be shut down the day before the campaign began.
This was hard to deal with at first. I am the type to press through no matter what- but then I felt God’s peace and assurance that he has a redemptive plan in this somehow.
I now have a sense of vision and mandate for Madagascar that is similar to how God has moved my heart for Sri Lanka. I believe God is sending me back as soon as possible to see the crusade redeemed and will make an announcement soon with something we are praying about.
I want to be transparent to all who sowed into the crusade- thankfully most of the funds were recovered and will be saved and used for when we return to Madagascar. We will have a head start toward something greater! Thank you so much to every partner of @zionmvmt !
Let’s continue to pray for Madagascar. What God has in store next will be greater than ever imagined!
Last, thank you to Darcy and Brenda, as well as every Pastor, leader and volunteer for your tireless work.
And special thank you to my sweet wife Jordan. Having you and the family with me was a true dream come true. Despite the intense challenges of doing this as a family, I am truly blessed to have done it together.
