Benin (MNN) ― Benin retains its reputation for intense spiritual warfare and strong resistance to the Gospel.
Yet, its people express openness to the good news. Their response was such that Campus Crusade for Christ leaders recognized the need to partner with local churches in order to multiply their manpower.
"JESUS" film workers developed a strategy called "Operation Jericho". It's a massive evangelism, discipleship and training project that will be implemented through church partnerships. The project aims at saturation for West African with the Gospel.
So far, throughout 2006, the project has seen encouraging success with thousands hearing the Gospel and turning their lives over to Christ. The churches then provide the discipleship.
According to JFP,
Operation Jericho will continue through conferences in 65 cities of the 17 Francophone nations until December 2007. Pray that God will use this partnership project to reach many more with the Gospel.
