Lessons from Africa Evangelical Fellowship's outreach to the Tsimihety people of Madagascar.

Africa Evangelical Fellowship

Welsh missionaries of the London Missionary Society (LMS) first brought the gospel to Madagascar in 1818. Despite disease and persecution there was a glorious beginning. By the 1830s the Bible was translated into Malagasy and churches were planted. In the 1960s the churches founded by the LMS fused with other groups to form the Church of Jesus Christ of Madagascar (FJKM). Sadly, today many of these churches are formal in practice and liberal in theology.
