Guest House Maintenance Worker in Spain

Come and bless a counselling and pastoral ministry with practical skills.  A WEC couple have a guest house in Lugo where they offer a place of rest and healing for pastors, leaders and missionaries.

The farmhouse is 140 years old and has a large garden, so there is always plenty of work to maintain and care for the house and grounds.

Guests are coming and going regularly, so help with cooking and cleaning is always appreciated. An ideal opportunity for a short working holiday or come for long-term service.

Qualities & Gifts Sought

You are handy and experienced in both maintenance and gardening. Some fluency in Spanish language is helpful but not required immediately.

Singles, couples or groups are welcome for any term from a week to longer. An international driver’s licence is useful because you will be in a rural area.

Our ref 234

It is an occupational requirement of any role with WEC International to have a committed evangelical Christian faith, because sharing your faith will be part of that role.

About Spain

Spain is a country mostly located on the Iberian Peninsula in Europe. There are also two large archipelagoes, the Balearic Islands in the Mediterranean Sea and the Canary Islands off the African Atlantic coast.

The country's mainland is bordered to the south and east by the Mediterranean Sea except for a small land boundary with Gibraltar; to the north and northeast by France, Andorra, and the Bay of Biscay; and to the west and northwest by Portugal and the Atlantic Ocean.

Spain is the only European country to have a border with an African country (Morocco) and its African territory accounts for nearly 5% of its population, mostly in the Canary Islands, but also in Ceuta and Melilla.

With an area of 505,990 km2 (195,360 sq mi), Spain is the largest country in Southern Europe, the second largest country in Western Europe.

By population, Spain is the sixth largest in Europe. Spain's capital and largest city is Madrid. Other major urban areas include Barcelona, Valencia, Seville, Bilbao and Málaga.
