Reformed Missions in Latin America

A Reformed church planting effort was established in the northwest part of San José in 1984. By God's grace a congregation has been organized in the "Tepeyac" community, and a Christian school founded. Roberto Venegas, a convert of this effort, is now the full time pastor of the church, and is supported by an organized church council. The Tepeyac Christian School is incorporated in Costa Rica, and is governed by a school board.  Local ministries of the Tepeyac church include evangelism, theological education, diaconal service to the needy and support to the broader school community in various ways.

The Tepeyac Reformed church sustains a daughter church in the community of Los Cuadros, formerly a squatters' settlement, and an area of great social and spiritual need. Marvin Briseño, an elder of the Tepeyac church, lives in Los Cuadros with his family and gives leadership to the growing congregation there. Their greatest needs include family stability and responsibility, the fight against drugs, orientation for the youth, and income for abandoned mothers.

In 2004 the Greens began another daughter church, which presently meets just across from the prestigious University of Costa Rica. God has brought new members and the congregation is growing. A Christian book store is also operating in the same storefront during the week.
