Costa Rica Adult Mission Trip
Since February of 2016, members of our church have joined together to work for a week at the Children’s Home in Coronado, Costa Rica. Because of the Covid-19 pandemic, this mission trip will not happen in 2021.
The Children’s Home houses children who have been declared legally abandoned by Costa Rica Social Services. United Methodist missionaries Will and Ella Faircloth guide teams of volunteers to do needed construction work, including painting and working with cement, rebar, and stucco. Other less strenuous jobs are also available.
Two homes for children have already been completed. Under the supervision of a contractor, our team has been working on a multi-purpose building that will be used for worship services, community outreach, tutoring, children’s recreation, and administrative offices. Our mission work also includes interaction with the children and providing lessons and activities which carry a Christian message.
If you are an adult interested in participating in a future mission or in contributing financially, please contact Susan Eden at susan.eden@gmail.com.
