Joe and Lana Lee Helm, Brookside BC, (Sep 2012)
On Tuesday afternoon September 18th, Pastor Joe Helm and his wife Lana Lee from Brookside Baptist Church arrived early in the afternoon to observe the ministry here in the Basque Country of Spain. They jumped right in to the various ministries from Bible studies in Urretxu to working at Aierdi. They were able to help us seal and paint the two white walls in the Abraham room. Both our men and ladies benefited from the split sessions on Friday evening. In addition to ministering the Word in the church in Beasain, we had a church wide fellowship at Aierdi where Joe was able to encourage and challenge out people on following the Will of God. Thank you Pastor Joe and Lana Lee for your sacrifice and investment in advancing the ministry here.

Combined IBBI & Berean Carpentry team (Oct 2012)
Mr. Thomas Shafer & Chuck Clute came over with 13 other friends to work at Aierdi. The bulk of the two teams built the stables & warehouse pictured on the left. But a smaller crew tackled some much needed carpentry work, which included the staircase and banisters you see on the right. Men and women worked hard and long to get so much accomplished and we are very grateful for their investment. As an interesting side note, the Berean members on this team brought the total number of Berean folks who have visited Aierdi to over 100!

Bethel BC mission team, Schaumburg, IL (Jul 2012)
The Bethel BC Mission Team arrived on July 21, 2012. We began the week on Saturday morning by going to Tolosa and distributing gospel tracts to assist in the new church plant in its infant stages. Some of the projects we worked on during the week were hauling old roof tiles from the borda up on the hill to the road and using them to fill the many pot holes. The ladies sanded and refinished all the benches with a fresh coat of sealer for the upcoming winter and stained the doors for the cabinet in the dining area. Pastor Cook helped Wilson, a Bolivian man from our congregation, lay a block wall for the future warehouse. Dwayne and Israel (also from our church) installed the hot water tank in the kitchen and we finished off the week by pouring an addition to the concrete parking area. What great fellowship we had with them around the barbecue grill and later a hike to the top of the mountain.
Thank you Bethel Baptist Church for your investment in God's farmhouse!

Ethan Johnk & Johnny O'Brien (Feb 2012)
Ethan and Johnny arrived on February 9th and soon began working on two important farmhouse projects. The first was replacing a header in the doorway going from the Mary Room to the Abraham Room. The second job was building and hanging the exterior doors to the Abraham Room. Johnny was only able to stay for a week, so he mainly helped in getting the various pine logs down from the mountain and beginning to cut, strip, and shape them. Ethan stayed for four weeks and was able to see both jobs through to the finish.
Thank you, Ethan and Johnny!
