FAITH COMMUNITY CHURCH
Costa Rica Mission Team
FCC just completed its 3rd
mission trip to Costa Rica (05,
08) and again partnered with
Faro Church. In addition to
some time spent helping on
the Abraham Project in a low-
income community in San
Jose, we launched off on a new outreach. Our team,
along with several from Faro
Church, went to minister to
an indigenous group called
the Cabecar. We brought
clothes, some OTC
medicines, candy, etc. to
give out; painted their
humble church facility
inside and out; and had a
church service together.The service was cool
because it was conducted
in both Spanish and
Cabecar (no English
except when people
prayed). Our youth did a
series of vignettes
dramatizing Jesus’
healings; Pasotr Randy
preached; and we prayed
for the sick.
God ministered to our own
team and we were able to
be an encouragement to
our church family there in
Costa Rica.
THE GOSPEL IN DRAMA - Acting out
the stories of Jesus was powerful. People
were on the edges of their plank seats.
MEET PHYSICAL NEEDS - Thanks
to generous donors, we were able to give
away needed items.
LAY HANDS ON THE SICK - Our
team was able to pray for several serious
needs after worshipping together.

Vacation Bible School
After a few years hiatus,
we brought VBS back in
full force. Over 50
different children
attended throughout the
week and around that
many adults & teens
that helped pull this off.
Our goals were to see
kids come to know Jesus
(most people accept
Jesus while young); to
help children grow
stronger in their faith
and Bible knowledge;
and to encourage
families unconnected to
a local church that God
has something for them.
Summer Ministry
In addition to the rest of the
good ministry that went on
this summer, Kevin Quantzand Brian Laskowski
headed up a garage rebuild
for a needy Mishawaka
family, putting their skills to
good use.
