Mission

missionIn 2007 we moved to Spain to work with youth alongside a team of missionaries.

We mainly work with young people through the associations "La Industria" and "ContraCorriente". We help with organisation, design, marketing, teaching, discipleship, and a few other things...

We are passionate to see young people´s lives changed by discovering who God is and that we are His.

Our team

We are working with a team of missionaries based in Santander.

We joined the team in 2007. Most of them had been working with youth in Spain since the early '90s, others have joined more recently. Together we run the youth ministries of La Industria and Contra Corriente.

The need in Spain

When we moved to Spain in the summer of 2007, we heard that there were approximately 1,200,000 evangelical Christians in the entire country. Only 400,000 of these were Spanish nationals and only half of them were committed church members.

That meant that only about 200,000 Spanish people were enjoying a real personal relationship with God through Jesus and we wanted to come and help increase the numbers, especially amongst the young people.
