International Mission Partners

Second Presbyterian supports the PC(USA) Mission Agency through monetary gifts from the Mission and Advocacy annual budget.  We have ongoing partnerships and communications with three PC-USA Mission Workers: Cindy Correll (Haiti): Betsy Moe (Guatemala); Karla Koll (Costa Rica).

The church also partners with CEDEPCA in Guatemala and the Ministry of Hope in Malawi.  Church members have visited both Guatemala and Malawi over the past 20 years.

CEDEPCA (The Protestant Center for Pastoral Studies in Central America) is an educational institution located in Guatemala City that contributes to the transformation of lives and contexts by providing training and accompaniment, and by offering spaces for reflection to women and men from diverse Christian traditions, communities and contexts. In addition to our partnership trips to Guatemala, several staff members from CEDEPCA have visited us in Richmond.

The Ministry of Hope was established in 1999 by a young Malawian named Fletcher Matandika as a Christian response to the overwhelming number of orphans in Malawi. A Malawian board of directors and a U.S. board of directors provides oversight and support. The ministry is under the Mkuza Presbyterian Church of the Nkhoma Synod in Malawi and also has partnerships with several other church denominations.
