1 in 200 vs 1 in 40

In Spain, according to several sites on the Internet

1 out every 200 Spaniards considers themself an evangelical christian
1 out of every 40 Spaniards considers themself a Muslim.

Put differently - I attended church yesterday with approximately 600 people (all 3 services combined)

If this was a general population in Spain, 3 of us would have been evangelical Christians and 15 would be Muslim.  582 would be considered a variety of things - Catholic (to be Spanish is to be Catholic, does not mean they actually have a relationship with Christ), Mormon (the 2nd fastest growing religion in Spain), Jehovah Witness, Buddhist, nothing, and so on.

Please continue to pray for us as we prepare for a transition to Spain.  Pray for new financial partners (and pray about becoming one) as well as for the spiritual preparation we need to live there.  Pray for the Christians that already live there - both the native Spaniard and the missionaries - as they try to share the love of Christ.  Pray for the lost - that their hearts will become tender to the true story of Christmas.  Pray that your heart will be broken for the lost - in your own back yard and across the ocean.
