#3: Spain is the least evangelized Spanish-speaking nation.
As of 2010, 329 to 358 million people speak Spanish as a native language and a total of 417 million people speak it worldwide. Of these, approximately 47 million are Spanish, the vast majority of whom have never attended a Gospel preaching church, or heard a clear presentation of how they can have a real relationship with God. Only 1.5% of the population claim to be Evangelical Christian.
Mexico contains the largest population of Spanish speakers, 6.3% of whom are Evangelicals (CIA). Spanish is the second most natively spoken language in the world, after Mandarin Chinese, and many Central and South American countries are beginning to send out missionaries of their own.
Wouldn’t it be wonderful if some of these were to take the Gospel of Jesus Christ to Spain! Would you pray that God will raise up laborers for His harvest?
