International Media Ministries
Madrid, Spain


We, after a four year process of fulfilling God's call, are finally moving to Europe to begin our work with International Media Ministries. As most of you know, IMM is moving too. We're all moving to Madrid, Spain. At the end of June 2003 we completed our 10 months of Spanish language training in Costa Rica, Central America.


We gave our "acre-dulce" (bitter-sweet) farewell to CINCEL staff and students as we returned to the USA for a few short weeks of preparation. Now we are clawing through the final hectic details of leaving for Spain. We will arrive just in time to help the IMM team unpack and set-up.

The team is knee deep or should I say, hip deep in literally miles of cable, tons of equipment, and mountains of boxes.

Four semi-trucks full of gear rolled into Madrid leaving Belgium after 20 years of operations. Now we face the awesome task of unloading, unpacking, and rebuilding the entire enterprise.

With cranes, lifts, and sheer man-power, the massive equipment was loaded out.

Not only the physical weight but the emotional weight of it all has been enormous. We're asking for your prayer and continued faithful support as we make new cultural adjustments and transitions. Pray for the IMM team. Pray for encouragement and stamina. Pray that the Holy Spirit will guide us as we refine and "re-define" God's plan for the ministry. Pray for the over 68 million people weekly who see evangelical programs produced by IMM.

This is a pivotal moment in our history and the vision for the future is fresh and filled with hope. A new wave of planting and harvest is upon us and it has a new home:
