Good Samaritan Hospital in LaRomana, Dominican Republic

Since 1986 First Baptist has been helping the Haitian Baptist Churches in the Dominican Republic minister to the Haitian people in that country. Through this effort churches have been constructed in several bateys, and the Good Samaritan Hospital was started. Now many other churches and groups across the United States in the American Baptist denomination and several other denominations have joined in the work. Today the Good Samaritan Hospital serves thousands of patients each year, even though construction is still going on.

Each year teams of volunteers travel to the Dominican Republic to help with the construction of the hospital and to help conduct medical clinics in the bateys. Here is a slide show of one of our trips to LaRomana you can download. Please note that this is a large file and will take four to five minutes with a fast connection. The file requires Microsoft's Windows Media Player .

Interested in joining us on a mission trip to LaRomana, Dominican Republic? View trip information.

In addition to coordinating teams of volunteers to travel to the Dominican Republic our church provides financial support from its own members.
