About this Fundraiser

Costa Rica is a most unusual country. It has no military, but is protected in a time of war by Venezuela. It is small geographically and with a population of only about five million, but it is home for 500,000 to 700,000 Nicaraguan refugees, which places a real strain on the country. The official state religion is Roman Catholicism, but other religious groups do have freedom under the law. The evangelical church does have an imprint in Costa Rica, but is facing a number of problems. One challenge that faces the church is the staggering number of young people in Costa Rica. Two thirds of the population is under 30 years of age. Many of those in that category are simply not attuned to the church's culture and thus are not associated with the church. A further challenge for the church is adequate discipleship for new believers. The church has been quite good at "winning" converts, but historically has struggled to build them up in the faith. Our ministry with e3 Partners brings to the church nontraditional ideas of church growth and a discipleship method that leads to churches which has been proven to work around the world. One week of your time can and will make a huge difference as we will equip you and our partners. In Costa Rica to evangelize and develop small groups for discipleship, which in turn are designed to become new churches. Our goal is to initiate a Church Planting Movement that will spread throughout the country. Come join us for this ambitious, yet realistic, ministry goal.
