Who We Are
Partnering to bring the Gospel to every heart — in the city, the jungle, and beyond.
Pastors Travis and Paulina Reid are both graduates of Rhema Costa Rica and have been in the ministry together since 2012. Before answering the call to ministry Travis served in the Canada Armed Forces for six years, where his experience would prove invaluable on the mission field. Paulina a native of Costa Rica in addition to graduating Rhema, has also completed a two year ministerial program at the Universidad Evangélica de las Américas.
Together, they are raising six daughters while ministering both locally and abroad. Their mission takes them from remote jungle communities to city streets, and even across borders to Canada, the U.S., and wherever else the Lord leads — always with a heart to serve, preach the Gospel, and strengthen families through the power of Christ.
What We Do

We bring the Gospel to both city streets and remote jungle communities—equipping believers with spiritual tools and meeting basic needs through food and fellowship.

Long-term transformation comes through trust. We focus on building relationships with families, indigenous leaders, and local communities to reflect the love of Christ through consistency.
03.
— We Strengthen
By discipling families and supporting local pastors, we help strengthen the spiritual backbone of communities both urban and rural.
04.

Our gatherings center around the truth of Scripture—teaching men, women, and children the foundations of faith in a way that’s practical and culturally rooted.
05.
— We Support Families
Through pastoral care, community prayer, and basic provision, we support families in times of need—spiritually, emotionally, and physically.
06.
— We Walk Alongside
From one-on-one mentorship to spiritual counsel, we walk alongside leaders, parents, and youth as they grow in their walk with Christ.
