Frascati Team

This morning I was able to have a great conversation with the Rome team! I have one other teammate, Autumn, and we will be joining Crystal and Matteo Scamporlino in Frascati, Italy.

They have recently taken a significant step forward in their mission. They secured a building for the church they initiated back in September. The excitement in their voices was clear as they shared their anticipation of moving into this larger space. It's more than just a physical expansion; it symbolizes growth, community, and the potential to reach even more souls.

During our conversation, they offered insights into the Italian culture, revealing a landscape ripe for the seeds of faith. Astonishingly, around 90% of the population has yet to hear the Gospel in its entirety. Despite Italy's rich history steeped in religious tradition, there's a prevailing curiosity about Christianity when it's introduced. However, superstitions, idolatry, and practices like tarot and palm reading still hold sway in many corners of society. It's a reminder of the spiritual hunger lurking beneath the surface, waiting to be addressed with the truth of Christ's love.

Prayers for the future conversations that will be had in the community and that they will be open and curious about the Gospel and Christianity would be appreciated going forward. Crystal and Matteo have already built relationships with some of the people in the community but the hope is that the church continues to grow and Christ's light will be spread throughout the world!
