Mission Teams

First United Methodist Church is committed to helping support parishioners who are called to mission work to such places as Ecuador, Cuba, and the Dominican Republic. Members from Bangor First have made several trips to La Romana in the Dominican Republic to work on ongoing construction projects at El Buen Samaritano (The Good Samaritan) Hospital, and to help with programs that serve Haitian sugar cane workers living in terrible conditions in villages called "bateyes". Through the hospital's mobile clinics over 100,000 people are served who would otherwise have no access to medical care. Each year Bangor First hosts a concert by the Christian merengue band, Revelacion Maranatha, as they travel the US fundraising for the work of Good Samaritan.
