The harvest followed with powerful messages on the theme « The Risen Savior”. Presented from Abidjan, Côte d’Ivoire, these sermons were broadcast live on YouTube and Facebook. They were followed and watched in a dozen other countries including Gabon, Chad, Rwanda, Ghana, Nigeria… Thanks to the good translation in French by Pastor Sessou Selom.

The last day message, on Saturday June 12, 2021, emphasized on the spiritual disciplines of prayer, meditation of the Word and witnessing to which all newly baptized should give themselves. According to the non-consolidated report, besides the 1,912 baptized hundreds of backsliders have come back to Church. Addressing all of them, the speaker said, « The most important thing is not to be baptized only, but to abide in Christ and in the sheepfold. « 

In addition, during the final closing evening, accents of gratitude broke out. First, the speaker of this series, Pastor Kingsley Anonaba, Executive Secretary of the West-Central Africa Division (WAD), acknowledged the arm of the Lord and Church involvement. « We owe the outcome to the grace of God, collaboration with the Department of Evangelism and the efforts of leaders, pastors, elders and church members. «

And finally, Pastor Assembe Valère, President of the Adventist Church in Cameroon did not fail to thank the administrators of the WAD for the choice of Cameroon for this pilot campaign. « When we say thank you, it is because we are still asking for more, » he added.
