Adios Espana from Julie

Well, we are about to leave this great country. We have had a fabulous experience meeting these people and establishing relationships. We have seen God work in amazing ways and are so thankful for the opportunity He gave us to come here and be a small part of something big. God is definitely working here and it was incredible to be a part of that. Thank you all for all your support and prayers. We definitely felt the prayers and they were greatly appreciated. Please keep Vilanova Protestant Church in your prayers as they continue to create environments to reach the unchurched here in Spain. This is a difficult task for them but with God on their side it will become reality. Please pray specifically that God will bring a leader who will take this church to the next level. Thank you and we love you all. Os queremos.
