Can a community be saved in a day? Can it be brought forth in a moment?
Andy Mahlagaume, the President of Accendo Ministries, witnessed a miracle-filled day on September 12 when most of the residents of a hopeless, poverty-stricken Mpumalanga village gave their lives to Jesus in one day.
Mahlagaume said he founded the non-profit organisation Accendo Ministries in August 2017 and God gave him a model to bring transformation in South Africa — starting with transforming communities into Kingdom communities that will lead to South Africa becoming a Kingdom nation.
In a Facebook post he shared the powerful account of what transpired on the day:
“On the 12th of September what transpired at the community of Holfontein was unprecedented. 90% of the community was not born again, we reached out to the community to preach the message of salvation.
“We reached out to different markets simultaneously. Some of our evangelists preached to the kids using the Jesus Film, some evangelized to the women in the community, some went house to house and some One on One.
“At the end we closed with a crusade in which a total of 70% of the 90% not born again gave their life’s to Jesus. Our strategy was to reach to the whole community in one day and we saw that happening.
“80% of the community is found unemployed and we therefore gave over 450 food parcels, including 2100 sanitary pads to women and baby clothes for women that are pregnant and expecting in the community.
The Bible says when ONE soul repents the whole heaven rejoices. We rejoice with the heavens for what happened. All glory to Jesus”
