In June 2006, Brooke took her first short term mission trip to Costa Rica to serve with a team alongside of Mark and Meg. Brooke and her husband, Matt, began to pray about their involvement in the ministry in the months following her trip. They returned as a couple to Costa Rica in November, 2006. While shadowing Mark and Meg during that trip, God revealed His plan for their family. 
Matt and Brooke are working in the Guanacaste area of Costa Rica
training local pastors and church leaders in discipleship.

hospitality, micro business development, and teaching English classes.
