Spain

Work started: 1996
Spain is full of colorful traditions, customs & languages, influenced by Islam, Catholicism, Judaism and Protestantism.  Catholicism is strong, but the 1978 constitution guarantees religious freedom and tolerance.  We can now have home Bible studies and engage in a variety of creative outreach ministries. Covenanters work in the south with an already existing Protestant church, the Federation of Independent Evangelical Churches, and a newly formed Covenant Church in the northwest province of Galicia. The influence of immigrants from Latin America on evangelicalism is being felt. Please pray for the ongoing and new ministries developing among the minority populations. We are also developing ministries to marginalized peoples in Spain through the Mosaics Project.

Missionaries:

  • Nate Finch (short-term missionary) serving in music, youth ministry, and church planting
  • Katy Kerl (short-term missionary) serving in compassion/women ministries
  • Andy and Carol Larsen (project missionaries) serving with the Mosaics Project in research and development of ministries of mercy and compassion, development, evangelism and leadership training
