With the blessing of my Pastor my wife and I started evangelising in a certain area in order to establish a new church. The challenge was enormous, especially convincing the Regional Superintendant of our denomination. He had never used this type of program before, even though I had been using it in some of our churches for many years. For the past 7 years I have tried to have the SOWERS Program accepted by our denomination but they have resisted this. Finally this year they agreed to allow me to run a “pilot program” so that they could see how it worked and see if it was possible to start a new church by using such a simple method. We began with just four people, my wife and I and my brother in law’s two children who live with us. We started going door to door in January and today as I write this to you a new community has been born thanks to God. We hold our worship in a rented shelter every Sunday morning. To date, our experience has been similar to what is written in the Acts of the Apostles, “And the Lord added to their number daily those being saved” (Acts 2:47). There are now 20 attending on a regular basis and almost each week new people come and join us. Auguste
