What Are “Just Relationships”?

Just Relationships are Christ-centered partnerships that move beyond charity and hierarchy toward shared life and calling.

All voices matter

All participants bring gifts

Power is shared rather than assumed

We believe transformation happens through relationships

"The way we relate shapes the fruit we bear."

In a world marked by division and inequality, the Church is often tempted to reduce mission to efficiency. But we believe God invites us to something deeper.

What We Do

We serve churches and global partners through three interconnected pathways.

Church-to-Church Partnerships

We coach mission pastors and church leaders as they navigate the complexities of cross-cultural partnership. Our work helps churches move from short-term mission activity toward long-term, trust-based relationships that deepen faith and increase shared impact.

Global Networks

We catalyze networks of churches and leaders committed to holistic restoration, such as the Red del Camino Network in Latin America and the Caribbean. Through gatherings and shared learning, these grassroots movements strengthen local leadership and drive collective transformation.

Stories of Shared Life

Our congregation has partnered with Tom Yaccino and Del Camino Connection for nearly a decade, and their impact has been invaluable. Through training, consulting, and shared visits, DCC has helped us move beyond simply understanding global partnership to actually practicing Kingdom partnership. We are now seeing the fruit of our partnership in Guatemala across every generation of our church. I am grateful to call Tom both a colleague and a friend, and I wholeheartedly recommend Del Camino Connection to churches of any size seeking meaningful and sustainable global partnerships. Creekwood Church began partnering with Tom Yaccino and Del Camino Connection in 2014. Through that relationship, we were not only introduced to churches in Latin America, but invited into a broader vision of the Kingdom of God.

Missions Pastor, 1st Presbyterian Church, Colorado Springs, CO
Through DCC, we have been able to witness and participate in holistic ministry that brings the presence of God into local communities. Their thoughtful preparation, care, and accompaniment of our teams have consistently created space for meaningful engagement and deep relationship. As a result of the partnerships we’ve cultivated in the Dominican Republic and Costa Rica—relationships facilitated by DCC—Creekwood has become a more faithful steward of our own community in Mansfield, Texas. We are deeply grateful for the way this journey has shaped us.

Why It Matters

When relationships come first:
  • Trust deepens
  • Resources multiply
  • Communities flourish
  • The Church bears more faithful witness
We believe the Gospel invites us not just to do mission differently, but to relate differently—as one global body learning, serving, and walking together.

Journey With Us

Whether you are a church leader, global partner, or individual seeking to invest relationally, we invite you to join us on this journey.

Leadership as Invitation

We believe leadership flourishes when it is practiced in humility, mutuality, and trust. Del Camino Connection exists not to lead over others, but to walk alongside churches and partners as we seek together to reflect the life of the Kingdom of God.
