• The southern tip of Spain is only 14km from Africa. • Almost six million North Africans pass through this port every year. • Most come from countries where Christian mission is forbidden. • Many are happy to receive scriptures and to hear the Gospel.

• You will offer scriptures and other gospel resources to North Africans in the port area and other parts of the city. • Clear guidance will be given about appropriate behaviour and dress in this Muslim context. • Teaching, fellowship, and prayer will be in English, Spanish and perhaps other languages, with continuous translation wherever possible. • There will be a short Bible message at the start of each day and a time to share experiences and pray together in the evening. • If the weather is hot, we may work early in the morning and late at night.

You will need to be at least 18 years old and have: • a personal faith in Jesus Christ as your Saviour and Lord • a willingness for God to work in your life • a desire to learn and grow as a person • an openness to people of other faiths and cultures • a desire to share the love and compassion of Christ with Muslims

A Lionheart holiday club is a five-day event for children, held in a church. Each day there is a fast moving, entertaining two-hour programme, designed for children to enjoy themselves as they learn the truth about God and about themselves. OM’s Kids ‘n’ Things children’s ministry team works in partnership with the church members to run the club. A Lionheart holiday club can be a useful event to bring in children from the community who do not usually attend church. Our aim is then to channel these children into the ongoing children’s work of the church. Although some children may become Christians during the holiday club it is often during the ongoing contact with Christians that children make a commitment. A Lionheart club is suitable for all primary school age children (4-11 years old). Some churches run a family service at the end of the week, which the children and their families are invited to.
