Go therefore and make disciples of all nations

Matthew 28:19

Our Beacon Church family is active in missions.  We work with diligence to be obedient to God’s command to be disciples who share the Gospel, His Word, and His promises. We do this through prayer, action, love, and financial support to field missionaries.  Scroll down to learn which missionaries and organizations we are supporting and what short term missions trips may be coming up.

Missionary of the Month

Dave and Angie Ziel

Ministry Location: San Jose, Costa Rica
Ministry Description: Church planting, foster care, theological education, practical ministries
for breaking the cycle of poverty (job skills, literacy, etc), Sunday school
Recent Ministry Fruit: Liam and Shey (both children we fostered in 2022) were reunited with their biological families. God has opened doors for more churches and individuals to get involved in foster care in a country where it is almost completely unheard of. Dave will receive his master's degree in December. Weeklong Bible Institutes (with IBAC) that Dave coordinates were taught in Costa Rica, El Salvador and Panama. Three women accepted Christ in a weeklong Bible study. Our church has seen new families come and Sunday school has grown. Our relationships with our neighbors have grown and God continues to give us opportunities to share the love of Christ.
Recent Challenges: Dave's dad and mom both passed away (Jim in May 2022 and Sharron in January 2023) and Angie's great aunt in August 2023. We have had to say good-bye to good friends here. We are praying about attending a church closer to our home where Dave can better develop the music ministry (due to a construction project our current church plant can take hours to get to during the week).
