Spain1700 — Organization Profile
Spain1700 is a Christian disciple-making and church-planting movement focused on equipping disciples to make disciples and churches to plant churches across Spain. The movement describes itself as Spirit-led and obedience-based, with a vision to see the Gospel saturate the country through prayer, collaboration, local leadership, and reproducible simple churches.
The movement is focused on Spain, with a stated goal of reaching all 17 regions of Spain. Spain1700’s public materials identify Spain as a spiritually underserved mission field, noting that many towns and villages do not have a Gospel-preaching church. The movement’s long-term vision is to see 1,700 simple churches planted across the country by 2034, with 100 in each region.
Spain1700 began from prayer gatherings among missionaries and local believers who were asking God for a disciple-making movement in Spain. The coalition formalized its shared commitment after a gathering in Granada, Spain, in fall 2022. As the vision grew, churches and mission organizations outside Spain joined alongside teams on the ground, forming a network of nearly 20 churches and ministries.
The movement’s strategy is built around Disciple Making Movements and Church Planting Movements that multiply through ordinary believers, local leaders, and simple reproducible tools. Spain1700 emphasizes that a movement is not primarily a program, event, or institution, but a prayer-fueled work of God in which disciples make disciples, churches plant churches, and local communities become centers of Gospel witness.
Spain1700’s values include prayer, collaboration, multiplication, innovation, and empowerment. The movement prioritizes equipping local believers and leaders to serve in their own contexts, adapting strategies for each regional setting rather than depending on outside control. Its approach is intentionally scalable, relational, and rooted in obedience, with the goal of long-term transformation rather than short-term activity.
People can engage with Spain1700 through daily prayer at 5:00 p.m., region adoption, vision trips, Awake Spain prayer walks, coalition participation, and short-, mid-, or long-term mission mobilization. Churches can adopt a region for prayer, partnership, and mission, while individuals can join prayer efforts, visit a region with a national leader, or explore service opportunities connected to disciple-making and church planting. Its distinct contribution is a collaborative Spain-focused movement mobilizing prayer, people, churches, and resources toward 1,700 simple churches across Spain by 2034.
