The goal in coming to La Vera has been to share the gospel in these 19 towns in Western Spain that relate to each other administratively where there is no other evangelical group. We envision small groups in the towns, forming a church of La Vera. The program would be adaptable to the people in the team. We want to give them some intensive training & orientation at the beginning. Here are some major aspects of what we are doing or would like to do as a team in La Vera:

The work will involve friendship evangelism, children & youth outreach and involvement in different community activities.

-Music ministry (children's choir, friendship, worship)

-Development of a piece of land as a small farm using permaculture and helping with the different farm chores

-There will be mentoring as we do these activities together. Come, make a difference!

Requirements:

-Needing to speak Spanish or wanting to learn (We use the LAMP program).

We are in an area of small towns 2 to 10 km apart on the slopes of the Gredos Mountains with one of the best views of Spain. The countryside is beautiful and people are friendly and love to chat. Their faith is generally in God, having seen only the traditional Roman Catholic Church as the only religion or just participate in the social aspects of it, funerals, weddings, 1st communions. There is a new segment of people pursuing "natural", ecological life styles, somewhat hippy with new age beliefs, whom we are getting to know through involvement in agriculture.
