Immunizations Before traveling to the Dominican Republic, it is required that you receive the following immunizations (please consult your local physician): Hepatitis A and B Typhoid Measles, Mumps, Rubella (MMR) Tetanus Malaria Need Current US Passport Start process as soon as you register to go on Banica Mission Trip CONTACT China Briceno 703-393-2141 X 161 [email protected] Payment Schedule: Non-refundable Initial Deposit $150 due upon acceptance to hold the spot The remainder of the cost can be earned by participation in fundraising projects or remaining payment due can be submitted by Final Non-Refundable Payment due-date of April 15 th , 2016 Registration, Fees, and Fundraising: There are several steps included in the registration process for Banica. Each participant will fulfill the following: 1. Participant and at least one parent must attend the Banica Mandatory Meeting on Wednesday, January 13, 2016 at 7pm in the Gym. This will be a chance to meet all of the Missionaries and adults, relay extremely important information about Fundraising and the Banica program, and provide parents with a forum to discuss questions and concerns about Banica. 2. All youth are required to "work for Banica " by participating in fun draising events. Through fun draising activities we build the Christ-centered community that is essential for Banica. It's not only "fund"rising, but also "fun"draising which makes the difference. The Mulch Sale is the major effort and all Missionaries and one adult will be needed March 11 th -12 th . Fundraising totals will be mailed to you by April 1 st , 2016; this email will indicate if there is any balance due. 3. The opportunity exists for participants to solicit pledges on his/her behalf from family and friends. There will be a sample letter in your Banica binder which you will receive at the January 13 th Mandatory Meeting. This option is helpful in that the family is not bearing the full burden of the costs. All Pledges should be received in our offices by March 28 th , 2016 to ensure credit. 4. All Banica Paperwork is due NO LATER THAN February 24 th , 2016. 5. Mandatory Banica Retreat will be held at All Saints on Sunday JUNE 5th, 2016 from 1pm- 7:00pm . In addition, all Missionaries will attend a Commissioning Mass at 5:30pm followed by a Dinner. Attendance on this day is required in order to attend Banica . How You Get Fundraising CREDIT ☺☺☺ Through deposit, parish subsidy (if applicable), fundraising, and final payment, each youth and his or her parents are responsible for meeting this financial obligation. Full participation in the mulch sale fundraisers should yield $250-$300. Even more important, our fun draising efforts are an excellent way of making new friends and building community before Banica. Fundraising “points” are earned through participation. Missionaries are encouraged to participate fully so they have the opportunity to earn the maximum points possible. This requires the participation of the Camper as well as one additional adult helper; could be parent, friend or relative. Here’s a breakdown of how fundraising points can be earned (must sign up ahead of time) (assume that 100 points is 100% participation): Mulch Pre-Sales Mailing 1/17/16 5 points a. Teens only b. Need 3 parent moderators to sign up in advance (also awarded 5 points) After Mass Mulch Sales 2/20 -2/21 & 2/27-2/28 3 points/Mass a. To receive 3 points, a parent must also serve with you b. You may sign up for a total of 3 masses c. An additional point will be rewarded for doing 7:30am Mass or a Spanish Mass Friday Mulch Delivery 3/11/16 30 points (more or less based on time) a. Teen plus Adult helper (parent or helper at least 14 years old) i. If only teen helps, half the credit is awarded ii. Parent help Options: Driver of teens, Driver of Truck, Assist at Homebase • Please tell Cathy at [email protected] how you can help! b. 3:00-7:00pm i. If only present part of time, credit will be pro-rated Saturday Mulch Delivery 3/12/16 60 points a. Teen plus Adult helper (parent or helper at least 14 years old) i.

If only present part of time, credit will be pro-rated What if I want to earn more funds towards my trip? Is there another opportunity? Mulch Spreading 3/19 and/or 4/2 Dollar amount TBD i. 7:00am – approximately 2:00pm (must pre-register) ii.

  • Your Mission Trip to Jimaní, Dominican Republic Jimaní Is A
    Your Mission Trip to Jimaní, Dominican Republic Jimaní is a small town in the southwest part of the Dominican Republic. It is one of the few official border crossings into Haiti. Chadasha is currently working to provide medical care for those in the community and a home for orphans and abandoned children. We also want to reach out into the community with the hope of Christ every chance we get! So, we have a pre- school on our main property and partner with a Haitian pastor to help run a school in a Haitian village 25 minutes away. There are so many opportunities to do God’s work, and we are thankful for your willingness to come and serve the people of the Dominican Republic and Haiti alongside Chadasha’s full time missionaries. We hope you find the following information helpful as you prepare for your trip. THE COST: The total cost for the trip is $800. The first $400 is due by January 15, with the remainder due by June 15. A payment option will be available on the church website. We want to help anyone who believes they are lead to go in raising the necessary support. HOUSING & MEALS: Chadasha's property in Jimaní is home to a hospital, chapel, orphanage, pre- school, and long-term missionary housing. The 2nd floor of the hospital is designed to house short-term missionary teams. There is a central living/dining area, kitchen, laundry room with washing machine, and 7 bedrooms (each has a bathroom, bunk beds, ceiling fan, closet, and a/c that works most of the time!) Some of the bedrooms are smaller and sleep up to 4 people while others are larger and can sleep 12.

  • Love at First Sight
    Love at First Sight IT’S ALL IN THE NAME The white sands of Playa Bonita, on the D.R.’s north coast, are unspoiled even by Samaná Peninsula standards. 48 Caribbean Travel + Life august+september 2009 Love at First Sight The Dominican Republic’s Samaná Peninsula has become a magnet for expatriates drawn to its classic Caribbean ambience and for hospitality entrepreneurs looking for the next great place. BY IAN KEOWN PHOTOGRAPHY BY JAMES SCHNEPF “I realized I could live here,” a Frenchwoman named Armell Cogez tells me, “and have a big garden, too.” So four years ago she and her husband, Cyril, emigrated from Lille to the tiny seaside town of Las Galeras, on the tip of the Dominican Republic’s Samaná Peninsula. I found myself chatting with Madame Cogez because what I had first assumed to be a typical colmadon, one of those Dominican neighborhood joints for rum and gossip, turned out to be a trim little épicerie, a boutique delicatessen, where the owner and her clients — one German, one Swiss — were discussing charcuterie meats and Livarot cheese in animated French. Las Galeras is a delightfully ragtag fishing village with a towel-on-the- sand atmosphere and a wind-swept beach. I first went there about 20 years ago, fell in love with its timeless Caribbean character, and vowed to return someday to flake out among the fishing boats drawn up on the sand, within aroma distance of the fresh shrimp cooking on the grills. That day turned out to be more distant than I had hoped, and when I finally made it back this past spring, I experienced the usual frissons of trepidation, dreading to find that the town’s main drag (indeed, itsonly drag) had been tarted up with emporia or that the ladies with the grills had been deposed by sushi bars.
