Mission Trip to Costa Rica

Learn more about the mission trip to Costa Rica this summer.

VNC believes in furthering the Kingdom by sending mission teams around the country and abroad.

Costa Rica 2024

In the summer of 2024, we will be taking a team to San Jose, Costa Rica and working on projects through Encuentro Missions. Projects will include hosting VBS, medical clinics, sports camps, and some light construction as we partner with a local church to further their mission. Would you partner with us in prayer, that God would use this time to make an impact in the local church?
