Bánica | On Mission in the Dominican Republic

Jesus calls us to go out to all the nations and tell the Good News

The Diocese of Arlington has answered this call while serving domestically and beyond — most notably, in the Dominican Republic for more than 30 years. By God's grace working in and through clergy and lay faithful support, the Bánica Mission has served and continues to serve the numerous communities within the Bánica and Pedro Santata regions, helping to meet their spiritual and temporal needs.

In this 13-minute documentary produced by the Catholic Diocese of Arlington, learn how the Bánica mission came to be.

Allow the words of priests, lay faithful, college students and Bánica natives who have served there inspire you to find ways to support this vital mission.Learn more and get involved at arlingtonmissions.org.
