Jurgen and Katja Hofmann serve in Madagascar, reaching out to the Tanala people with the gospel of Jesus Christ. Jurgen visited the village of Tsiombivohitra for years to teach and preach Bible stories. When he visited, he was told that there were only two young people who believed in Jesus and this couple was looked down on because they did not participate in traditional ancestor worship. Sometime last year, the sown seed seemed to take root. First, the young couple came to the village of Maroamboka on Sunday mornings to seek the Lord with the believers in the Lutheran Church there. Then they took about 20 more people from Tsiombivohitra with them! The believers are slowly becoming the majority in the village and as they are having to travel seven km to church, they have arranged for a sister congregation to begin in their village. Praise the Lord for this fruit.
