Swiss Cove Christian Church members, David and Edda Sepulveda, started this mission in February, 2010. The basis of the mission is Proverbs 22:6 which states, “Train a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not turn from it.” This ministry provides churches with educational materials for the purpose of helping Dominican churches establish structured, consistent, Children’s Ministry programming. This encourages children to learn and serve within the local church and grow to be future leaders. This ministry hosts short-term mission trips for churches and individuals from the United States.

Swiss Cove has supported this mission since 1986. Over the years, at least five churches, a college campus ministry, a Christian school, and a lunch program (feeding a minimum of 30 children three days a week) were started.
