Málaga Media Center | www.mmcmedia.org
Málaga Media Center exists to creatively use media to present Biblical truth until the Church has been established. MMC was started in 1968 with a focus on North Africa through a print shop, radio studio and Bible correspondence course. Throughout the years, the outreach of MMC expanded to include television programs, short-term Bible schools, music seminars, internet, and telephone counseling. In addition, MMC now has a video ministry in Spanish. Málaga Media Center is located on the outskirts of Málaga, Spain, a city of approximately 600,000 people. Málaga is on the Mediterranean and is only 2 ½ hours from Morocco. At MMC English is the primary language spoken; however, Spanish is helpful for daily life. Most MMC workers with no previous Spanish will be asked to enroll in a Spanish language course either prior to or upon arrival. Some MMC staff members will also need ability in Arabic.
