About VNMinistry
Welcome to Vino Nuevo Ministry! Our vision is to help people in Europe establish intimate relationships with Christ, to know the love of the Father God and the work of His Holy Spirit in them. Our mission is to work in the Basque region sharing the gospel using the creative arts and planting and blessing national churches. We believe in the power of new wine in new wine skins for a new generation, just like it says in Luke 5:37.
Thank you for your interest in our ministry,
