TRIP FOCUS

Our Bolivia team will partner with missionaries Mike and Polly Brown to help with the construction of their Chicos/Chicas ministry center.

Team members will have the opportunity to serve through practical labor, teamwork, and supporting the long-term impact of this growing ministry in Bolivia.

Missionary Partner

The Browns - ChildHope

Mike, Polly and their three children serve as missionaries in Bolivia with a passion to see families transformed through the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Through ministries like ChildHope, they provide education, food, discipleship, and safe spaces for at-risk children and youth. They also minister to the Deaf community by sharing the Gospel in Bolivian Sign Language, helping reach those who have never heard the Good News in their heart language.

In addition to evangelism, compassion ministry, and preaching, Mike is ordained and Polly is licensed as Assemblies of God ministers. Prior to serving as Missionaries to Bolivia, Mike & Polly served as Missionary Associates to Costa Rica, and before that, youth and children's pastors in Massachusetts.
