Hello everyone!! My name is Samanta Sanchez. I will be serving as the Dominican Republic site coordinator. I am a senior in college, who navigates her journey with unwavering faith and a commitment to service. Rooted in the Catholic faith, I actively contribute to my community and learn more through the Lay Mission Project in the Diocese of Sacramento. I am set to join the Third Order Dominicans. As the bulletin editor in my parish, I play a key role in fostering communication and unity among parishioners. My diverse involvement reflects a deep sense of purpose and a desire to live out my faith in both service and spiritual exploration.
Surrounded by a network of like-minded individuals, I embrace each day with gratitude, trusting that my experiences and connections are preparing me for a meaningful role in the world.

Favorite Saint: St. Joan of Arc and St. Benedict

Favorite Scripture Verse: “I command you: be strong and steadfast! Do not fear nor be dismayed, for the Lord our God, is with you wherever you go.” (Joshua 1:9)

In the summer of 2024, I will be serving in the Dominican Republic. for two weeks in early June as a Site Coordinator. I will have the privilege and honor of working alongside a team of CMT missionaries at Nuestro Pequenors Hermanos (NPH) in San Pedro de Macoris.
Our expected work project expenses for 2024 total approximately $100,000. My personal goal is to raise $1,000. I am excited to share with you my journey with God as a missionary and invite you to become one of my mission partners. Everything that we have is from God and everything that we give is from God. Where is God asking you to invest?  Please consider joining me on the mission by making a one-time or recurring donation to support the work of Catholic Mission Trips, Inc.
