Mission of Hope / Dominican Republic
-
OLGC's Mission of Hope Minsitry began 20 years ago when our parishioners donated funds to build a clinic and school in Batey Lecheria in the Dominican Republic.
Over the years, our parishioners have generously donated supplies for both the school and the clinic, as well as funds to support the teachers, children and families. Each year a group of parishioners commits to traveling to the DR, they organize the donations and plan a project to work on, with the Nuns who live there, that will benefit the community.
