Mission Trips to Cartago, Costa Rica

Perhaps you should be part of a mission trip to support the work of the Presbyterian and Reformed churches of Costa Rica this summer!

Opportunities for service include the Christian grade school and high school, the printing ministry, and service with “Educación Plus”, a diaconal ministry in three of the needy barrios on the outskirts of San José. There is always lots of work to be done! There is an active young people’s group involved in ministry as well that can provide fun and fellowship. If desirous of extending your stay, please inquire and it may be possible.

Skills in Spanish are not required but certainly are helpful.

Where

Cartago, Costa Rica – This mission team will fly into San Jose International Airport and then travel by car down to Cartago to labor with some congregations, a mission school, and a publishing house.

When

3 to 6 week trips from May thru August

Skills

Our primary need is for individuals, couples and groups who have a “Servant’s heart” and who are members in good standing within their local churches to go and aid with outreach, some light repair work, and some teaching. Have you had opportunity to take some Spanish language classes in High School or College and now are wondering how Christ might use your newly acquired skills, or how He might help you further develop those skills?

What We Will Do

This team will be helping with some vacation Bible school planning and leadership, spend some time teaching in a local mission school, help with some publications efforts at a local Christian book publishing company, and will seek to encourage the saints in Cartago. This congregation is presently in the process of building a school building, so there may be some tasks that the team can undertake and especially so if the Lord provides skilled construction laborers.
