Serving Costa Rica Through Lifeline

Latin America is a region rich in beauty, culture, and diversity, yet it faces deep social and economic challenges that leave countless children and families vulnerable and in need of care. Many children are growing up without the stability of a family, exposed to risks such as exploitation, abuse, and neglect. While some children are eligible for adoption, many more children and families need gospel-centered care and the consistent presence of loving, supportive communities. The local church plays a vital role in responding to these needs, offering hope and restoration where it's needed most. Now more than ever, the Church has the opportunity to step in and be the difference for vulnerable children and families across Latin America.

Global Orphan Care

Tibas Baptist Church

In Costa Rica, Global Orphan Care partners with Tibas Baptist Church and their 1:27 Mission. The focus of this ministry is to equip and walk alongside church members as they seek to serve and make disciples of vulnerable kids and families in their local community. Their program focuses on several key areas, including support by providing care kits for foster kids through Casa Viva programs, and mentorship by guiding more than 25 aging-out kids through mentorship programs in the Casa de Pan Residential Program. They also encourage, equip, and connect members of the church with Casa Viva foster care programs to empower families to fulfill the gospel mandate of caring for the vulnerable. Additionally, they walk alongside adoptive families and connect them with other potential adoptive families within the congregation to create a culture of adoption in the church. Finally, they facilitate a group that brings together 20 local churches with the goal of building awareness of the biblical call to care for orphans and the vulnerable.
