Carson R.

My name is Carson, and I'm from Wilmington, North Carolina. In January 2027, I'll be stepping away from my normal life here for three months to serve in Costa Rica.

I'll be serving in the mountains and working with the Shrioles community. While I'm there, I'll be helping with practical work like building, farming crops, and whatever else is needed. I'll also have the opportunity to meet local families, hear their stories, build genuine relationships, and share my faith.

This trip means a lot to me because I've realized how easy it is to take the things I have for granted. I believe God has blessed me with multiple things for a reason, and I feel called to use what I've been given for something bigger than myself.

My goal isn't simply to go somewhere new. I want to serve people, learn from them, build relationships, and show them what I believe the hands and feet of Jesus Christ should look like.

Any amount you're willing to give would genuinely mean a lot to me and would help make this opportunity possible.
