DOMINICAN REPUBLIC & HAITI

THE PROJECTHOW IT WORKSHelp us to fill a shipping container full of needed items for the Dominican Republic and Haiti!

For more than 50 years, the Diocese of Green Bay has provided financial support and priests to staff two parishes in the Dominican Republic, St. Teresa Parish in Elías Piña and St. Isidore Parish in El Llano. They are currently served by Fr. Mike Seis, who ministers to approximately 90,000 people in his two parishes and approximately 1,350 students in Catholic schools.

Sr. Maria Marciano previously worked as a missionary for 22 years in the Dominican Republic and now focuses her work across the border in Haiti. She works to construct roads, provide fresh water, teaches agriculture, and reforestation. Her work provides, clean water, life-sustaining food sources, health, wellness, education, flood and erosion prevention, and impacts 160,000 lives in Haiti. You can learn more about her work at www.sistermariahaiti.com.
