Who
are we?
We are missionaries, serving our Lord Jesus
Christ, working so that all can hear and respond to the love of
Jesus.
We married in 1999
and now have two daughters: Esther who was born in 2002 and Raquel
who was born in 2006. We live in the city of Guadalajara about
54 km. from Spain’s capital, Madrid.
We are supported financially
by different churches, friends and family who believe in the work
we are carrying out. We work according to the guidelines set up
by our Mission organization as faith missionaries living on the
donations we receive
What
we do?
We
carry out various ministries in Spain and in other countries.
We are directors
of Esencia Ministry (www.ministerioesencia.com) a ministry in
the area of praise and worship. We began this ministry in the
year 2000 in Madrid through our mission agency YWAM (Youth With
A Mission). The focus of this ministry is to give ongoing training
to believers who are involved in praise and worship, whether it
be in their local congregation, in evangelism or as local artist.
Through the Esencia Ministry we have lead various schools of worship
in Madrid, in the Azores (Portugal) and in India. We give worship
and praise seminars in the different provinces in Spain and have
taken this training to Portugal, Belgium, England and Hungary.
Fernando was
the head of administration for the YWAM base in Madrid from 2000
to 2006. As a family we participated with another three couples
in planting a church in the city of Torrejón de Ardoz (23
km from Madrid) during this time. This church now has a membership
of 70 believers.
We participate
in different youth events, encouraging the Christian youth and
helping to reach the non Christians. Some of these youth events
are La Confra in Madrid, Contracorriente, 24/7 Prayer and Underground
Praise.
On a yearly
basis Fernando travels to India to teach and participate in the
praise and worship school he began in 2004. We travel to various
cities in Spain using praise and worship in evangelistic campaigns
to reach the non believers with the gospel. Some of the cities
where we have ministered in this manner are: Marbella, Málaga,
Estepona, Churriana, Vinaroz, Valencia, Requena and Puente Genil.
