Each mission opportunity has built into it a project that is meant to help an individual or La Fortuna as a community.
We are looking forward to investing in the future of a family whose world was recently turned upside down.
January, February, and March will be dedicated to helping them get their feet under them so they can move forward in success and independence. Javier had the responsibility of raising his 2 younger half siblings fall in his lap. Losing their parents and becoming a parent himself was not the plan he had for his life, but he has taken it on with grace and determination.
The house that was left to them is in a state of disrepair with termites infesting the wooden parts. There are also apartments that they rent as the source of income for the family. Javier has spent the last year and a half working very hard and investing in those apartments so that they can make the money they need to live.
The house that THEY live in is next and something Experience has committed to working alongside them on. The whole roof structure, ceiling, and a couple of interior walls will come out and be replaced with materials that are more hardy in this climate.
We partnered with Asociacion Cristiana Experiencia de Fe and The School of La Fortuna to build 3 classrooms dedicated to the teaching of English.
This created an environment in which students are surrounded by English signs, posters, and decorations that greatly enhance the students’ focus and ability to master the English language.
The classrooms are a blessing to the teachers who previously had to carry their computers, materials, and extra supplies from classroom to classroom. Having a space of their own in which they have all of their teaching tools at hand allows them to spend less energy on what they need to take to each class and more energy on being able to teach the lessons.
A family who came with Experience volunteered in the English classes, allowing students to listen to native accents and practice English with native speakers.
A mission team partnered with a local Tica to make tamales. The profit from the sale of the tamales went to help low-income families purchase school uniforms so their children could attend school.
Experience not only offers the opportunity for Americans to step away, step into and step out, we also offer the same adventure for ticos (Costa Ricans). Each fall, Experience partners with a mission in Ahauchapan, El Salvador to offer the opportunity for ticos to go and serve our brothers and sisters in Christ’s love. Not all of them are eligible for a VISA to enter the United States and not all of them could afford a trip that expensive. This opportunity allows them to travel to a country that they are allowed to enter at a lower price: stepping away from their daily routine, into a different culture, and out as the hands and feet of Jesus.

Step away from your daily life to experience God in new ways. Step into a different culture to see your own life from a new perspective. Step out as the hands and feet of Jesus.
