OUR JOURNEY TO COSTA RICA
OUR JOURNEY TO COSTA RICA
What began as summer mission work in Mexico in the late 1980s, followed by short-term mission trips to Venezuela in the 1990s, ignited a lifelong passion for the people of Latin America.
Decades later, what started as a simple dental trip to Costa Rica became something far greater. Through an unexpected friendship and one young woman’s story, God began connecting the dots, revealing a calling that neither of us could have imagined.
This video shares the journey that led us here—and why we are now dedicating our lives to helping people in Costa Rica discover purpose, advance skills, and create better lives.
Watch the full journey and see how God turned a passion into a mission.
