Costa Rica Vision Tour

Join us for an unforgettable experience as we embark on a Vision Tour of our Costa Rica base! This trip presents a unique opportunity for you to witness firsthand the incredible work that God is doing through CFCI in various parts of Costa Rica.

During the tour, we will explore different ministries that are making a Kingdom impact on the lives of people in Costa Rica. You will get a chance to see the tireless efforts of our dedicated missionaries and volunteers as they work to help transform the lives of those in vulnerable communities.

Among the ministries that we will visit are Tirasses, La Carpio, Pavas, and Renacer. Each ministry location is home to distinct projects and initiatives that are bringing the hope of Christ to individuals and families in the area.
