Comunidad Cristiana Evangélica Decisión

What Comunidad Cristiana Evangélica Decisión does

Comunidad Cristiana Evangélica Decisión is a Spanish evangelical nonprofit organization headquartered in Madrid that conducts evangelistic campaigns and supports church planting in towns across Spain lacking an evangelical Christian presence. Founded in 1977 by American missionary John Blake as an initiative connected to the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association (becoming fully independent in 1991), the organization has run more than 70 multi-day campaigns in over 100 Spanish towns spanning every autonomous community, with 35 churches planted as a direct result. Its core product is the Jornadas Internacionales de Convivencia (International Fellowship Festival), a 10-day field campaign combining volunteer service, cultural events, Bible festivals, and personal evangelism, typically drawing 50–100+ international volunteer participants.

Decisión's product portfolio extends beyond field campaigns to include Academia Decisión (online and in-person training courses for evangelists and church planters), Brigada Esperanza (a rapid-response disaster relief initiative debuted during the 2024 Valencia Dana floods), the National Evangelism Summit (Cumbre), Operation Christmas Child Spain (in partnership with Samaritan's Purse), and several digital sub-brands (EnBuscadeJesus.net, Una Oración por España, PHOS Festival). Underlying technology consists of standard web infrastructure: WooCommerce/WordPress for the online store, Cloudflare for email protection, YouTube for video distribution, and Starlink satellite internet for disaster zone operations — there is no proprietary technology stack or AI/ML capability.

The organization's revenue model is donations-driven and diversified across three streams: one-time and recurring individual donations, the Sembradores monthly donor community (€15/€20/€45 tiers), and e-commerce sales of books, discipleship materials, hymnals, and summit recordings priced €5–€170. The core customer segment comprises evangelical Christians and churches across Spain, with secondary beneficiaries being unchurched residents of targeted Spanish towns, disaster-affected communities, and church leaders attending the Cumbre summit. Distribution is direct via the organization's website, on-the-ground campaigns, the FEREDE church network (3,000+ evangelical churches in Spain), and a US donation channel through One Challenge.

Direct peers

• Operation Mobilisation (OM): Global evangelical missions organization with deep roots in Spain and across Europe. Operates short-term mission trips, discipleship training, and church-planting support with a youth-led volunteer model that closely mirrors Decisión's International Fellowship Festival.
• Convoy of Hope: US-based Christian disaster response NGO that collaborated with Decisión in Paiporta after the Valencia floods. Operates a faith-driven disaster relief model and shares Decisión's hybrid physical-spiritual service approach.
• Samaritan's Purse: Major US-based evangelical humanitarian organization that partnered with Decisión during the 2024 Valencia Dana flood. Operates Operation Christmas Child (which Decisión coordinates in Spain) and shares the dual physical-aid-plus-gospel model that defines Brigada Esperanza.
• Avant Ministries: US evangelical church-planting mission agency operating globally with a comparable training-academy-plus-field-deployment model. Closest US analog to Decisión's church-planter pipeline through Academia Decisión and 10-day campaign approach.

Broad incumbents

• Billy Graham Evangelistic Association: The original parent organization of Decisión (1977–1991) and a global evangelical crusader association. BGEA operates at vastly larger scale and global reach but shares the same core DNA of mass evangelistic campaigns and follow-up church planting, making it the closest strategic analog.
• Trans World Radio (TWR): Global evangelical media mission that operates Radio Encuentro in Spain, associated with Decisión's Honorary President. TWR is the most direct analog in faith-based broadcast-led evangelism and shares Decisión's audience and donor base in Spain.
• CRU (Campus Crusade for Christ / Cru): Global evangelical organization with a substantial Spanish presence (Campus por Cristo) focused on university students, leadership training, and discipleship. Operates at much larger scale but shares Decisión's training-pipeline and youth-targeted mission model.

Others

• Lausanne Movement: Global evangelical convening movement collaborating on Decisión's 2026 Cumbre de Evangelización. Peer as a thought-leadership and convening organization rather than a direct operational competitor; sets the global church-planting agenda that Decisión implements locally.
• FEREDE (Federación de Entidades Religiosas Evangélicas de España): The Spanish Protestant umbrella federation of which Decisión is a member. Not a direct competitor but the principal institutional peer governing Spanish evangelical coordination, public-sector access, and religious education policy.

Regional players

• GBU España (Grupos Bíblicos Universitarios): Spanish evangelical student/campus ministry affiliated with the International Fellowship of Evangelical Students (IFES). Operates in Spain with a similar evangelical training and outreach mission, targeting a younger urban demographic that overlaps with Decisión's 18–30 volunteer segment.
