What is CAM’s history?
The Central America Mission was founded in 1890 by Dr. C.I. Scofield. The idea of establishing this mission organization began a couple of years earlier in Cost Rica, in the hearts of Mrs. Ross and Mrs. Lang, wives of coffee plantation owners in San José. These women were burdened for the thousands of Spanish-speaking people around them who were living in spiritual darkness. They were moved to pray that God would send laborers into the Costa Rican harvest field.
