Group Missions to Costa Rica

During our two-week stay, on the third day, someone approached us with a misshapen leg, seeking prayer for healing. What happened next was nothing short of extraordinary. Over the course of the next four days, we watched in awe as the leg literally grew back to a ‘normal’ state. It was a bona fide miracle, a testament to the power of prayer and the divine presence we experienced. Even after returning stateside, the impact of this testimony continued to spread through the area, reaching and touching more lives. My host family in Costa Rica even wrote to share how this miracle was still impacting people long after our departure.
Since 1989 we’ve been mobilizing the church to engage with Jesus and join His work at home and abroad. We’ll connect you with these opportunities while taking the hassle and guess work out of planning your trip to Costa Rica.

Top 3 Most Common Mission Trip Questions

Mission Trip Details

Meet the People of Costa Rica

Costa Rica has long been known for its natural beauty—volcanoes, rainforests, and rich farmland—as well as its welcoming culture. But in recent years, the nation has faced growing challenges. Refugees fleeing violence and instability in neighboring countries have sought safety here, placing new pressures on communities and resources.

Outside of the tourist areas, many families continue to live in poverty and uncertainty. Yet in the midst of these struggles, the local church is rising up with compassion and hope.

Service Opportunities

Your team will join local churches and ministries in serving families, encouraging hearts, and sharing the hope of Christ. Through your time in Costa Rica, you’ll show God’s love in practical ways and remind people that He sees them, His promises are true, and His presence is near.

  • Here are some of the ways your team may serve:
  • Children’s Ministry: Share God’s love with kids and youth through games, songs, stories, and sports in neighborhoods facing poverty and risk.
  • Evangelism: Listen to people’s stories, share the hope of Jesus, distribute Bibles, and offer the gift of His love. This ministry takes place in parks, local communities, and prisons.
  • Refugee Ministry: Partner with local churches to care for and minister to refugees and others experiencing hardship, bringing practical help and spiritual encouragement.
  • Surf Club Family Community Outreach (Optional): Engage children ages 4–10 in a safe, fun environment where they can learn to surf, hear a Bible-based message, and care for God’s creation by helping clean the beach. Your team may serve as lifeguards, surf instructors, or mentors as you help build relationships and support the local church’s outreach.
  • House Building (Optional): Assist in constructing safe, sturdy homes for single mothers, providing their children with a secure place to grow while their parents work or pursue new skills.
Living Arrangements

Your team will stay in a mission house, with rooms divided by gender. Bunk beds and bedding are provided for a comfortable stay. Please note there is no air conditioning. If you tend to get hot easily, we recommend bringing a small personal fan for your comfort.

Transportation

Your team will fly into San Jose, Costa Rica, where we’ll meet you at the airport. We will arrange all of the ground transportation to and from the airport, as well as to and from the ministry sites during the day.

Cooking

Your team might help out in the kitchen or you will have a local cook. Your breakfast and dinner will most likely be traditional Costa Rican meals. Your lunches will be sandwiches, fruits and chips.

Safety

The safety of our participants is a top priority for us. We have both an internal Risk Management team and external Risk Management consultants. We use a multi-pronged approach to risk management – including monitoring information from reporting agencies and relying on the knowledge of our ministry partners. In addition to our own protocols (e.g., students must be with an adult at all times), our ministry hosts and partners will provide trip specific safety guidelines for the particular trip location. Our Project Leaders are trained in risk management and have access to both on-field and home-office support.

Registration and Payment

$500 Deposit: To reserve your trip, a $500 deposit is required. This deposit locks in your spot, and we’ll stay in touch to help you with all the preparations. The best part? This deposit goes toward the total cost of your trip.

50% Payment: Three months before your trip, half of the total cost will need to be paid.

100% Payment: The remaining balance is due two months before your trip.

We’re here to make the process as smooth and enjoyable as possible!

Meet Your Project Leader

An adult Project Leader will be assigned to your team throughout the duration of your trip. They will stay with you and your team, as well as engage daily with you throughout ministry and daily life activities. This leader will have strong missions experience, leadership experience and a demonstrated competence in the area of discipleship of youth and young adults. In most cases, your project leader will help with facilitating ministry, meals and daily debrief and devotional time. Your Project Leader will be assigned to your trip and you’ll have the opportunity to have conversations with them during the weeks leading up to your trip.
