Summary In this episode of the Catalyst Podcast, Eric Davis, Will Bailey, and Jenisha Owens discuss the significance of mission trips, particularly in Costa Rica. Will shares his personal journey and the growth of Costa Rica Mission Projects over the years. The conversation explores the benefits of mission trips for college students, the theological implications of communion, and the importance of cultural exchange and community building. The episode emphasizes that mission work is about mutual learning and connection rather than simply providing aid. Takeaways Will Bailey has been involved in Costa Rica mission projects for over 21 years. Costa Rica Mission Projects started with a relationship between a church in North Carolina and the Methodist Church of Costa Rica. The property for the mission projects was an abandoned coffee field, now producing coffee. Mission trips provide exposure to different cultures and foster relationships with local communities. Communion serves as a powerful reminder of the universal body of Christ. Participants in mission trips often find they are served just as much as they serve. Being equipped for mission work is about having an open heart and willingness to learn. The church in Costa Rica is already vibrant and active, and mission teams participate in that work. Personal stories from mission trips can have lasting impacts on participants. The conversation encourages college students to consider mission trips as a valuable experience.
