John Hipkins

Position: Director of Mission Teams - Alajuelita

John grew up in a Christian family in Sumter, South Carolina. He first learned about 6:8 Ministries during a short-term mission experience while attending Vox Bivium School. During his initial visit he felt God calling him to return and serve as summer staff.

Over the summer he fell in love with the people of Costa Rica, and felt called to serve them as a full-time missionary. Currently, he is striving to be obedient by making preparations to move down to Costa Rica later this year. He will be serving with 6:8 Ministries in Alajuelita, with a special focus on helping to lead the homeless worship service / feeding center ministry.

​We are all excited to see what the Lord has in store for him, and we are expecting God to do great things in and through him. Please prayerfully consider partnering with John through your prayers and financial support.
