God sent M. Esther from Kyungsung UBF as a student to Spain two years ago. Her husband, M. Joshua Kang, went there after six months of missionary training and Spanish language training under M. Abraham Hwang in Mexico.  Last January in 2011, M. Joshua got a good job with a Korean company in Madrid despite the economic crisis in Spain. In April 2011, God sent them co-workers, M. Pablo and M. Paula. They are greatly supporting M. Joshua's house church just as they have done so before with other families in so many Latin countries.

God blessed M  Joshua's family with a baby, Ester. God blessed them to also move near Madrid University, which has more than 80,000 students. They began a Spanish Sunday worship service from last week in M. Joshua's house church.

Spain campus pioneering has a long history that dates back to 1975 when M. Jose Ahn was first sent there. M. Paulo and Paula also raised one house church there in 1990. There were several other attempts by several missionaries who had to leave due to visa problems.
