This week I had the pleasure of Interviewing Noel Richards, Song writer and musician. We will be collaborating with him more in the future as he is now based on the Spanish island of Mallorca. He talked about his upbringing and his career as a Christian songwriter. Yesterday I preached about Centurion from Luke 7, I made the point that we cannot make deals with God. The Jewish elders said to Jesus that you must help this centurion as he "loves our nation and built the synagogue. The centurion viewed himself lower by saying to Jesus "I am not worthy to have you come under my roof" View yourself correctly and rely on Gods grace and mercy. Last week I was asked by a member of our non church community to convene a funeral at the crematorium. Around 400 non believers attended and I was able to sensitively share the message of the Gospel to bar owners and restaurants owners along with entertainers and retired folk to name a few. I was asked because the widow liked a previous service I convened a few months ago. Praise God for giving me a door way into our community. As I write this we have a keep fit class is taking place in the main church, needless to say I am worn out just listening to them. Please keep Naomi, Melissa and I in your prayers. should you require any information on how you can support our ministry financially then please contact.

Preaching the Gospel on the Streets of Torremolinos

Preaching the Gospel on the Streets of Torremolinos. As many of you will be aware I have been an Elim missionary in Spain since 2009. When we traditionally think of missions we may drift to Africa or Asia in our minds and rightly so the gospel is needed there. My goal has been to make people aware of the desperate need in western europe. Spain is in a mega financial crisis and amidst all of that it is rapidly becoming secular nation. On another level though the doors are beginning to open to the Gospel being preached on the streets. Last friday I had the honour of being invited by another Church to pray for Spain on the stage. I was praying in the centre of Spain's first Holiday resort, Torremolinos. I also introduced our Church band to lead some worship time. Please pray for Spain, please pray for us too, that the door will remain open to us. Car update, We have our car back now, it cost 600 euros to repair. We are in need of sponsors for our ministry, you can give as little as 5 euros a month or whatever amount you feel God is asking you to give. It would be most useful to our ministry here in Spain.
