Alcance Team
I'm so excited to join the Alcance team! I had the honor of meeting them when I was in Costa Rica for language school. That's how God began opening the door to this amazing ministry. Below is a little about the team.

David and Amy Cartwright
We are David and Amy Cartwright. We have been serving in Costa Rica since 2012. Both of our girls, Maggi & Emma, were raised here in the country. Maggi has now graduated from Southeastern University & is working as a nurse in Florida.
Emma is now a senior at Southeastern University, studying Biochemistry.
Only God could write our story
David is from California, and Amy is from South Carolina, and we met in Romania in 1994. Only God could write our story. We both felt called to missions at an early age and were finally released for full-time service in 2011, when we were fully appointed by the Assemblies of God World Missions.

Marci Baker
I was born and raised in Auburn, California. After college, I worked on staff at my church and at an after-school program for elementary school kids. From a young age, I felt called to missions, but I never knew what that would look like.
After doing a summer missions internship in Italy, I felt God calling me to take the next step in missions. I arrived in Costa Rica in January 2024 to serve at Alcance Bible Institution! As I have been serving for the past 2 years, God has continued to grow my heart for the students of Alcance and for cultivating a Christ-centered community on campus and in the broader community.
The ministry
Alcance Bible School's vision is to raise up the next generation of pastors and make disciples. I'm blessed with the opportunity to serve here and alongside these incredible people.
