Life School near Madrid


In mid-October 2018 my wife and I met with two amazing missionary couples, and plenty of more missionary teachers who are operating (or on the board) of the ONLY evangelical Christian school for Spanish children in the Madrid, Spain area (in Tres Cantos) name Life School (Life). Life is an English immersion school. Scot and Carol Musser were led to start this school after a couple of decades serving at and running a Christian school in the area that primarily serves missionary children. Scot felt an increasing draw for developing a high quality school that would help Spanish children, and help lead Spanish families into personal relationships with our Lord. The school is in it's second year and has a modest student population; but has more than doubled than last year. The storefront property that they rent to educate the preschool and primary aged children will soon be insufficient to house the growing student population With the Lord's help, and in working with Spanish architects Carlos and Audrey, we hope to prepare drawings that will allow for a larger and phased growth plan to educate hundreds of preschool through secondary age students. Recently, Scot has been challenged to dream beyond just one such school building; but to see if the Lord might not grow this vision into several such schools throughout the Madrid area and perhaps beyond. Following are some photos of the children, the missionaries, the Spanish architectural team, and the property.
