SPAIN
Spain is at the center of World Link Ministries. It is the epicenter of a movement that has sent ripples across the globe. In 1991 WLM launched our seminary in Madrid with just 3 students and a bright hope. Today, more than 2000 Spanish church planters have been trained and they continue spreading the gospel throughout the nation. The mission was simply to train those who would be church planters, equip them for the mission, and deploy them to begin reaching their people for Christ. No one could have guessed, at that time, how significant this work would become.

Spain is one of the most difficult fields in which we work. Evangelical Christians are regarded as a cult in Spain and are held at an arm’s length by most of the country. When we go out to the streets to share the gospel, we find that most people we talk with have never opened a Bible to read it for themselves. Furthermore, no one has taken a Bible and shown them how they can have eternal life. To make matters worse, less than 1% of the 50 million Spaniards are Evangelical Christians.
This has deepened our resolve to train and deploy Spaniards to reach their own for Christ. The Lord is at work, and is producing great results. Our prayer is that the Lord would bring a revival to Spain; something it has never experienced in its history. We know that with God, all things are possible.
