Greetings from the Joneses
It's hard to believe that the time has come for us to retire! On June 30, 2020, our time as full-time missionaries with ABWE came to an end. What great years these have been to serve the Lord. We hope you'll read out latest update here to see what God has been doing.
Now that more than three months of confinement have passed, we been coping as best we can by use of the cell phone and internet. We're thankful for Zoom and WhatsApp. Our two grandsons were with us for most of the spring. they are finally back with their parents. We enjoyed having them with us. Thankfully we have a small back patio so they could go out from time to time. Thanks for praying. This has definitely been a trying time and a time to put our trust in our Heavenly Father who is in control of all things.
We have finally been able to meet as a church and hope that more and more people will be able to come. Meanwhile the services will continue to be on FaceBook and YouTube. Through Zoom we have Bible study on Tuesdays and prayer meeting on Thursday and can listen to sermons on the internet.
The group in Torres de la Alameda has already celebrated its sixth anniversary last October. We are thankful for what God has been doing over the years. There has been more growth this past year. In our most recent update you can read more what is happening. You will find all of our updates in the column on the left under Previous Updates. Thank you for praying for our ministry. We know that God has great plans for the future as well.
One of our goals for this year is to look for Spanish leadership. We pray that God would lead us to the man that He has chosen for this important responsibility.

Spain is located on the Iberian Peninsula with France to the North, Portugal to the West and Africa to the South. There are 44 million people living in a country about twice the size of Oregon. Less than 1% consider themselves to be Evangelical Christians. Spain is changing though. About 10% of the population are immigrants from Eastern and Central Europe as well as Central and South America. We live in Campo Real, about 20 minutes east of Madrid and are beginning a new work in Torres de la Alameda.
