Praise God for the local churches in southern Spain that collaborate with our Christian station Radio Vida FM. One of those churches is Fuente de Paz Baptist Church (Fountain of Peace) who are celebrating their 125th anniversary this year.

Pray for the team who are building meaningful relationships with people in the Middle East through social media.
