The center, modeled off the internationallylaudedmodel of "pregnancy waiting homes", provides a safe, comfortable place forup to 30 cabecar mothers, who must journey long hours on foot to have access to medical care, in the days before and after the birth of a child or in the event of thehospitalization of a child. Mothers and children are offered housing, nutritionalmeals, access to all services of costa rica's internationally-acclaimed governmenthealth care system,

In many poor areas of the world, the church is as materially poor as her people.by reaching into these communities, and providing simple, dignified places ofworship in which the church can gather, St. Bryce mission is laying thefoundation for the transformation of hearts, souls, families, communities and thewhole world.
