Roger and Debbi Audorff want to help Mexico become a sending nation for missions, and they believe that with proper training, this will be able to happen. While the immediate spiritual battle is with the Mormons and Jehovah’s Witnesses—Roger and Debbi believe that the Catholics in Monterrey could realize that God’s Word is for them to live out in their daily lives. However, idol worship of Guadalupe is prevalent in the city among the Catholic population, and the Audorffs are praying for the spirit of idolatry to be broken by the name of Jesus. Monterrey is also home to much poverty and has had many recent problems with drug trafficking.

River Valley 500. We are currently in a transition phase to move from Brazil to England and live there with YWAM full time. During this period we are working with YWAM to do an online English and culture class. Leticia just finished the class and Colin was a staff member, and in January we will both be staffing the school. The school teaches English and gives people a place to practice and learn free of judgment, while also teaching them about the differences in cultures and how different cultures show different aspects of God's character.

Malaga is a city of over 650,000 people. It is a fast-growing, international hot spot in Europe. Located in the southern region of Andalusia, this city is known for its rich foods, deep traditions, and complex history. From 2016 until today, Malaga ranks third behind Madrid and Barcelona, as a top destination for international business in Spain. The people of Malaga have a great love for life and family. Sadly, they have a long history filled with heartache and loss. The spiritual awakening of the reformation that touched much of Europe in the 1500s has not yet found its way there. People are looking for hope. In this highly secularized city, many have never heard of the loving Savior and have never witnessed a vibrant, Spirit-filled church. We know that a life-giving, community of faith that chooses to authentically and compassionately love those around them, will be an undeniable light in the darkness and a beacon of hope for the hopeless.
