We serve God in his mission, promoting discipling and the planting of churches in all of Spain.

What do we do?

All across Spain, ECM is working in all kinds of ways to help all kinds of people experience the life-changing good news and the present reality of God's Kingdom at work.

How are we doing it?

  • Pointing people to Jesus through personal and event-driven evangelism
  • Establishing new groups of believers and developing churches
  • Creating transformational 'spaces'  where we can disciple people towards the likeness of Jesus
  • Offering one-to-one support through mentoring, counselling and coaching
  • Providing theological training and spiritual direction
  • Getting alongside and helping people through:
    • Food and clothes banks
    • Anti-trafficking
    • Community centres and a hostel for pilgrims on the Camino de Santiago
    • Supporting refugees, ex-drug addicts, children at risk of social exclusion, prisoners and other vulnerable people
    • Sports and youth activities

What do we want to see?

More of God´s Kingdom coming as people, families and communities hear about and personally experience God in meaningful ways.

God is evidently at work throughout Spain, both in and outside of established structures such as the Roman Catholic church. However, because of its link with the Franco-regime during the 20th century and its religious ´monopoly´, the Roman Catholic church in Spain has lost much of its credibility. On the one hand this has created a vacuum that has been filled by atheism, materialism, occultism and many other ideologies. On the other hand, there is now a great opportunity to help people discover a real, relevant relationship with the Living God through all kinds of new expressions of His body, the Church

Facts

Economy
The world's mightiest economic power in the 16th Century, followed by three centuries of decline and economic stagnation until entry into the EU in 1986. This helped transform the country into a modern economic power with rapidly rising living standards. Main sources of income are tourism, industry and agriculture. The recession, which began in 2008, and bursting of the housing bubble slowed economic growth significantly. One of Europe's higher unemployment rates.

The statistics are meant to give an impression, not to stigmatise. Statistics taken from "Operation World, 7th edition, 2010", see also www.operationworld.org
