Amplifying the gospel on a global scale, the Home Free Global Crusade 15 – Christ: The Peacemaker Tour headed by the Chief Executive Ministers and Global Evangelist Bishop Jonathan S. Ferriol brought the message of hope, healing, freedom, and salvation last July 7, 2024 at the Hotel Eurostars Madrid Tower, Madrid, Spain.
Few days before the crusade, dedicated ministers and members from Europe District spearheaded by Evangelist Violy Concepcion put their utmost effort in evangelism along the streets of Madrid. They brought energy and enthusiasm, spreading God’s invitation to receive the message of peace and salvation through spontaneous music and outreach programs. Madrid being the capital and the most populous city of Spain, containing almost 3.4 million inhabitants and a metropolitan area population of approximately 7 million, is indeed a strategic place to share and spread the Word of God.
On the day of the crusade, various performances lifted the Name of Lord coming from the Diaspora Chorale, Diaspora Watchmen Crew, PMCC (4th Watch) – Madrid Young Watchers, and Saved by Grace dancers. Also, a special performance from Ms. Kitchie Nadal, a known Filipina singer, added excitement to the event as she sang songs of inspiration that uplifted the spirit of every listener. Ms. Kitchie Nadal has been in Christian faith since she was 23 and her desire to use her talent in music for God’s glory has been fulfilled through the Home Free Global Crusade.
As for the highlight of the event, Bishop Jonathan S. Ferriol delivered the message of hope to people with the help of Brother Nomel Muncada, the Head Minister of PMCC (4th Watch) Marbella, Spain for the Spanish translation. This strategic partnership of Bishop Jonathan and Brother Normel overcame the language barrier that made the non-English speaking attendees understand God’s message with clarity and conviction. In his message, Bishop Jonathan S. Ferriol mentioned that, “Jesus is heaven’s olive branch of peace! Receive Him today and find peace with God!” which means, “Jesús es la rama de olivo del cielo de Paz! recíble hoy y encuentra la paz con Dios!” in Spanish translation.
The event garnered over 1300 in-person attendees. Truly, the result was overwhelming, with 294 who confessed their faith and 131 who made decisions to be baptized, including 14 Spanish nationalities. This remarkable number of baptisms shows the great impact of the crusade on both local and visiting participants. Truly, a victorious Home Free Global Crusade 15!
