After the war ended, I returned to my home in Mozambique, but I had to wait six years before I discovered that SOWERS materials had been translated into our national language, Chichewa. I was so excited that I cycled for two days to be trained with these materials.
I immediately started training others and holding open air meetings. I was so thrilled as I watched both church leaders and ordinary people come to know our Lord.
Recently my brother-in-law Manuel held an open air meeting at a village six hours cycle away. At the end of the meeting the chief was one of 15 people who accepted the Lord, and a month later he wrote and asked me to send another team of Sowers to his village so that more people could hear the gospel.
Many new believers have been coming to me and saying that the message we preach is the real gospel. Other people preach about their own churches, not Christ, but SOWERS preaches Christ and I see people coming to the Lord almost each time I go to an open air meeting. Joao M
