NEXT-TO Ministry: Spain
Account #: 5602
NEXT-TO is a ministry in Spain dedicated to serving Christian camps for the growth of local churches across Spain as they work together with church leaders. At present there are 2 full-time team families: David and Debbie Frank and Jeremy and Sylvia Frank with Shania and Wyatt. Both families are missionaries serving with Global Outreach International. As God provides, new full-time members will join the team as well as volunteers (national and international) helping with short-term opportunities.

Today, less than 1% of Spaniards have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. It is a privilege for NEXT-TO ministry to have the opportunity to be involved in what God is doing in Spain today and what He will continue to do in the future. Throughout history, Christian camps have had a unique and vital part in the growth of the church around the world. As God guides, develops and blesses this ministry, the prayer is that He will multiply disciples and servant leaders throughout Spain to serve Him faithfully wherever He leads them, impacting lives so that His body grows and matures to become more like Christ, bringing Him honor and glory.
NEXT-TO signifies “coming alongside” and that is what this ministry will be doing with the Christian camps in Spain.
