Jamaica–Youth

An Adventure Awaits You In Jamaica!

Jamaica’s beauty attracts millions of tourists every year, but poverty lurks just beyond the resort gates.

Lush mountains descend to white, sandy beaches. High in the hills, families crowd into ramshackle houses, little more than sheds. And those families are the lucky ones. Homelessness is rampant. Mothers abandon children they can’t feed.


Locals turn to false gods to answer their desperate pleas for help.
Jamaica needs hope now more than ever.

You can bring that hope.

Wake to the smell of the world’s best coffee, then bring meals to homeless children. Feed their bodies and their souls by sharing Jesus in the streets and parks of Jamaica’s cities.
 

Your team will leave the easy life of the tourist areas behind and will be immersed in the real Jamaica. You will experience first-hand the deep need of the forgotten. You will show love and bring promise to the brokenhearted.

You might travel to the mountainous, rural areas of the country to take in the island’s unique character and connection to its African roots while serving a population where poverty is nearly double that of the country’s capital.

Working with children at a school for the blind or teaching Vacation Bible School in a city park, you may find yourself changing and growing as much as the children you are helping.

You could even have the opportunity to climb Dunn’s River Falls, zipline through the Jamaican jungle, or just relax on a sunny beach.
 

Surrounded by the riches of tourism in one of the most beautiful places on earth lies a country in poverty and loss. Will you share love and hope with the people of Jamaica?
