Why Basque
Welcoming Basque speakers
Basque, or Euskara, is one of the oldest living languages in Europe and is unrelated to any other, spoken in the Basque Country that spans northern Spain and southwestern France. Its speakers hold their language close as a treasured mark of heritage and home. Offering worship in Basque honors that heritage and opens the door for them to meet God in the language of their hearts.
Including Basque speakers signals that their unique language and people are seen and valued in the body of Christ. That sense of being known is the beginning of belonging.
