Sue Hegarty

SUE’s ministry in Costa Rica is multipronged. She works with the Baptist Federation, training and guiding women to lead Talita Cumi Girls’ Clubs. She also serves as a liaison developing fraternal relationships and assisting with ministry projects for American Baptist mission teams visiting Costa Rica. Another part of her ministry is working with Nicaraguan immigrant women, many of whom are coming out of situations of domestic violence, while at the same time starting over again in a new country. Sue assists with issues such as legalizing their status, housing, skills training and education, as well as providing emotional and spiritual support for these women and their children.
