Spiritual Landscape in Madagascar
Around half the population would say they were Christian but Islam is making a big effort to draw people and mosques are being built in all the major population centres. There is still significant animism in rural areas.
Please pray

- For the Lord to call mission workers who can establish a local SIM administration team to serve our mission workers with financial, administrative, personnel services and leadership
- For pastoral training in Antananarivo, Antserabe, Mandritsara and Mahatsara
- For more missional healthcare workers for Christian hospitals across the country
- For local co-workers at the Timothy Centre to continue the activities (theological education, community development, outreach and discipleship) after the current leader leaves
- For the people of the Comoros to be reached with the good news of Jesus
- For the raising of mission workers from churches in Madagascar
