Celebrating 100 years in Bocas del Toro Panama

Catholicism in Bocas del Toro owes its beginnings and its organization to the members of the Congregation of the Mission who took responsibility for this area of the country at the time when the United Fruit company and other foreign business companies put Bocas del Toro on the map. Their pastoral ministry in Bocas (1917-1964) laid the foundation for what would become known as the Prelatura of Bocas del Toro.
