The 12 students traveled to Madrid, Spain, on Dec. 6 for a week of evangelism activities. The trip was a sort of homecoming for team leader Amanda Williams, a master of arts in biblical counseling student who was born and grew up in Spain as the child of International Mission Board missionaries. The team worked with her parents, Dwight and Mara Williams, and other missionaries during the trip. Williams also is the staff photographer at Southwestern Seminary and was able to document the trip in photos.
Missions background
Williams said she grew up “seeing my parents involved in ministry and church planting. They have received many teams throughout the years, and I have seen God use that not only in the lives of the people in Spain, but also in the lives of students.”
When the opportunity to help with the trip came up, she said, “there was no way I could turn it down.” Her goal for the trip, she said, was that God would open hearts to the message the mission team was bringing.
