Outreach

Experience life-changing outreach with us! Our mission is to empower local partners to foster spiritual growth and strengthen community bonds through enriching camps and retreats. Engage in hands-on tasks like campsite upkeep, food preparation, and creating outdoor gathering spaces. We’re in partnership with local churches and schools, equipping believers to embrace outreach as a way of life. Become a catalyst for change with us!

Ministry Partners

Our ministry partners are the dedicated pastors and youth pastors of the Central American Church (CAC), a close-knit network of approximately 60 vibrant congregations. Together, we collaborate with these community leaders to address the ever-evolving needs of their unique communities. Our mission is as dynamic as the communities we serve.

Culture

Guanacaste, Costa Rica, embodies the “Pura Vida” lifestyle, rooted in cowboy traditions. Its friendly culture celebrates a rich heritage amid serene landscapes.

Eating & Sleeping

Your Costa Rican adventure is a blend of authentic accommodations, from rustic cabins and tent camping to a cozy hotel near the trip’s end. Enjoy classic Costa Rican flavors – fresh tropical fruit, rice, black beans, and grilled fish or chicken.

Safety

At Community Life Church, your safety is our top priority. We encourage vigilance and situational awareness to ensure everyone’s well being. We maintain a curfew for accountability, avoid known danger zones, and monitor threats closely. Your safety is our main concern, and following safety guidelines is a must for a secure and enjoyable experience for everyone.

Adventure

Embrace the adventure in Costa Rica’s coastal wonderland! Potential outings may include sun-soaked beach outings, surf lessons, turtle watching, jungle hikes, and rainforest ziplining. Our trip ends with a scenic debrief, savoring the beauty of this captivating place.

Who Should Go

Those who should go on this adventure are individuals who appreciate unhurried conversations with local believers, enjoy a relaxed pace, and seek a transformative experience through a blend of culture, coffee, time in God’s word, and camp-style adventures in Costa Rica.

Spiritual Formation

Be part of a meaningful spiritual journey. Through our pre-trip meetings, devotionals, and readings, you’ll grow in your faith, understand your identity in Christ, and learn to share your story and the Gospel. We hope you embrace the opportunity to share your faith with those you meet during the trip. Once the work is done, we’ll take time to reflect and debrief, seeing the Lord’s work and the lessons you’ve learned.
