The Costa Rica Children’s Bed Fund Drive.

One of the biggest blessings the MVBC CR Mission Team experiences is helping Egidio build and then delivers beds to children who have none.  The smiles on the faces of the families as it sinks in that we are giving them beds for their children are priceless and humble each team member.  You are a huge part of that blessing as you donate to keep this unique and precious ministry alive. Each bed costs around $200 including materials, mattress, linens, pillow and a bag of food for the family. Please place your donation in a blacked-out envelope and mark it for “Costa Rica Beds.”  No amount is too little. Thank you for continuing to support the Costa Rica Children’s Bed Fund.  

Wednesday night, Reverend Brad Bessent.
