Pray for the Community of Madrid
The Community of Madrid is Spain’s political and economic center, home to over 6 million people. It’s a densely populated, cosmopolitan region with one of the largest evangelical populations in Spain — around 189 churches and 13,000 members as of 2008. While only 17 towns remain unreached, Madrid’s rapid urban expansion and strong secular culture present ongoing challenges. The city is also a hub for immigrants, with nearly 16% of residents born abroad.
Key Prayer Points
Madrid is a city of influence and opportunity. As you pray, focus on creative urban outreach, church planting in new neighborhoods, and unity among ministries. Let’s ask God to make Madrid not only a mission field, but a mission force.
Urban Outreach
Pray for innovative outreach to Madrid’s urban population — from professionals to students. Ask God to bless ministries like KM-0 and creative efforts in art, music, and apologetics.
Planting in New Neighborhoods
Pray for church planting to keep pace with urban growth. Ask for established churches to catch a vision for mothering new congregations in expanding suburbs and immigrant communities.
Unity and Resources
Pray for strategic cooperation among Madrid’s many denominations and ministries. Ask that Madrid’s churches be generous in sending and supporting mission efforts across Spain.
