STM 2017 Jamaica (Montego Bay)

An adventure awaits you in Montego Bay, 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, and mothers abandon children they can’t feed. 

Many Jamaicans turn to false gods to answer their desperate pleas for help.

You can share the hope of a real and loving God with those seeking Him.

Ministry:

While in Jamaica, you will partner with a local ministry near Montego Bay. Ministry opportunities could include:

  • Kids Ministry: You could do VBS or sports ministry in a low-income community called Canterbury, sharing the love of Jesus in kids’ favorite language: fun.
  • Home Visits/Prayer: From visiting members of the church to praying for the sick, you’ll be able to pray for the current needs of those living in Canterbury.
  • Community Outreach: Every moment, from walking down the street to shopping in a market or an off day at the beach, will be full of opportunities to live your faith and share hope with tourists and Jamaicans alike. 

Your team will be immersed in the real Jamaica. Far from the flashy resorts, you will experience firsthand the deep need of those who feel forgotten. You will show love to the brokenhearted and deepen your own faith in the process.

Will you share the love and hope of Jesus with the people of Jamaica?
