Doug & Brooke Burns

Field: Costa Rica
Home State: Texas
Children: Austin & Mary Beth

The Burns Family is partnering with Casa Viva (a Viva Network International ministry based in Costa Rica), to promote and facilitate church-based family care for Latin American children in need of a home. As an alternative to traditional orphanage care, Casa Viva recruits Latin American churches to raise up and support families that receive children into their homes that would otherwise end up in government institutions or on the street. Under the Casa Viva model, the state obtains care for the child at a fraction of its traditional cost, the church and family answer God's mandate to care for orphans in distress, and the child becomes part of a family.  

Doug and Brooke hold Masters degrees (Doug in Theological Studies and Brooke in World Mission and Evangelism) from Asbury Theological Seminary.
