We are Bob and Denise Ryals serving currently as AGWM Foreign Missionaries to Spain.  We live in Tarragona, Spain located in the northeast corner of Spain, about an hour south of Barcelona.

Missions and indigenous ministry development are Bob's principal focus these days.  The growth of the Christian Evangelical church, as a movement, has been painfully slow in Europe.  Working as the Assistant Area Director of the Southern Europe Area Bob has an  opportunity to help find new and better ways of fulfilling the Great Commission in the five European countries of southern Europe. Much of the responsibility of this office includes working in the development of new missions emphasis as well as helping to develop, strengthen and focus existing ministries.  Additionally, we are currently serving as Staff Pastors of the International Church of Barcelona.  Ongoing responsibilities for Denise include her service as the Director of the Southern Europe Ministry Center and the language school for new missionaries serving in Spain.

Gethsemane Ministry is a new, developing ministry focus for Bob.  The ministry is to help primarily European ministry leaders to  hear from God in determining the next phase of life and ministry.
