Africa Firewall Project Reaping Results
The Africa Firewall continues to make exciting progress.
In the last month, two separate locations in Mozambique hosted training. Over the past 18 months, over 70 pastors have received training and over 500 new churches have been planted.
Pastors are trained to use many tools in evangelism, including one of the most effective means of communicating the Gospel to Africa’s unreached people, called the Heart-of-Man flip chart. The ten-page chart, originating in France back in 1712 and adapted for the mission field of Africa in 1929, is today translated into over 250 languages and used in 127 countries of the world. The chart has become a front-line evangelism tool in the Africa Firewall Project. Using simple pictures and symbols to portray the spiritual condition of the human heart, people of different languages, and social and religious backgrounds are led to understand God’s redeeming love.
Pastor Raymond, a South African leader in the Firewall Project, is training hundreds of church planters to employ this missionary tool in reaching the unreached, especially in rural Africa, where many are still unable to read or write. Amazing responses are being reported, sometimes with hundreds accepting Christ in one day.
The Firewall Project Africa is an initiative of Men and Women of Action in cooperation with the leadership of the Church of God in Africa, under the auspices of Church of God World Missions, Cleveland, Tennessee. Individuals and churches are invited to share in the work and blessing of raising a firewall of God’s Spirit, grace and love across the African continent.
