Do you desire the gifts of the Holy Spirit to be manifested in your life?

N’abandonnez jamais. » Daniel Del Vecchio a accompli des miracles, des guérisons et des délivrances tout en exerçant son ministère à Cuba, au Mexique et en Espagne. Fortifié par le Saint-Esprit, il a atteint des jeunes routards qui passaient par Torremolinos dans les années 1970 et 1980, et a été à l’origine d'une communauté chrétienne internationale et d'églises évangéliques en Espagne.
