January 2027 World Race Semesters | 4 Months: Central America 27R01CA

Know God. Create Community. Make an Impact.

If you have a heart for ministering to the vulnerable and lost through children's ministry, sports programs, community outreach and development, and discipleship, this trip is for you.

Brazil: Brazil is a rising superpower in the world’s economy. This geographically diverse nation is home to a significant evangelical population and many missionaries. While across the nation, large-scale events celebrate Christ, crime, homelessness, and poverty are serious issues in Brazil. Those feeling forgotten and trapped in poverty need to know God sees and cherishes them. Jesus is on the move, will you be His hands and feet in this beautiful country?

Costa Rica: Costa Rica is one of the most stable countries in Central America, economically and politically. Its volcanoes and lush jungles draw tourists from around the world, and its easygoing beach towns are a popular destination for world-class surfing. One of the only countries without an active military, Costa Rica lives by the motto, pura vida, which embodies an easy-going approach to life. Enjoy the delicious coffee and slower pace of life here while bringing the Love of Jesus to this beautiful nation.

Jamaica: Jamaica is a country known for its lush mountains, beautiful coastlines, and vibrant culture shaped by strong, welcoming communities. While the island is rich in beauty, some areas are still recovering from the impact of a hurricane in 2025, leaving ongoing needs in housing and community restoration. Racers will be staying at our Adventures Relief Jamaica base, where they will partner with the staff and local leaders in relief and rebuilding efforts. This ministry will focus on practical service, supporting long-term recovery, and building meaningful relationships with the people of Jamaica.
