Companion Diocese
Sharing Resources, Experiences, and Faith Across Diocesan Boundaries
Our Mission
Since 2001, the Diocese of Georgia has maintained a Companion Diocese relationship with the Diocese of the Dominican Republic. In 2023, the delegates to the Annual Convention of the Diocese of Georgia voted unanimously to renew the Companion Diocese relationship for five years. Although some churches and individuals in the Diocese of Georgia sponsor mission trips to other international locations, most of the international mission activity from the Diocese each year is to the Dominican Republic.
Bishop Frank and Victoria Logue are taking part in a mission trip in July 2026 as part of this ongoing connection between the two dioceses.
St. Peter’s (on Skidaway Island in Savannah) sponsors an optical clinic team and a cataract surgical team – the Gift of Sight Mission Team — to work in the Episcopal medical clinic, La Clinica Esperanza y Caridad, in the city of San Pedro de Macorís. The mission team typically examines the eyes of nearly 1,000 adults and children and distributes more than 1,500 pairs of glasses. The mission includes a weeklong surgical team, which can perform 100 cataract operations, literally returning sight to the blind.
