This afternoon Beebop sat on a crate outside his house and began to sing praises to the Lord. I was so blessed to watch Tammy (our missionary partner) sit beside Beebop and begin to harmonize with him. She sat there for quite some time enjoying worshipping their Lord together. Matthew 25! -LT

This morning the teenagers and some of the adults went to the beach area in Jamaica. It was a time to relax a bit before returning to Canterbury for the next round of VBS. After the beach, we came back to Miss Dolly’s for a time of shopping. Next, we ate lunch and got ready for Canterbury. In Canterbury we gave out some basketballs, shoes and other donated items. The people appreciated our generosity of sharing with them. Plus, more children got saved today along with one adult! Once we got back, we all enjoyed a delicious supper prepared by the hospitable cooks. Tomorrow, will be spent at the waterfall, and will include lunch at a restaurant, along with more fun! Plus, we will return to the orphanage to give out some dolls at some point on Thursday too. This trip has been a great experience for me, and I look forward to going on a future mission’s trip to Jamaica in the future. God truly has worked in the lives of the Missions Team as a whole. To God be the glory! -Ellen






Tuesday at VBS in Canterbury I led my first person to the Lord! And today I led another child in Canterbury to the Lord. I am sooo happy that God gave me the chance to do that. Makayla





WOW what an awesome God we have and what a blessing it has been to serve Him in Canterbury this week. One of the things that we had the pleasure of doing this week was to build a handrail on a porch for a young man named George. George is one of the guys that the team had established a relationship with in the past, and we praise the Lord we were able to build onto that relationship and hopefully help move George one step closer to an eternal home in heaven. Praise God! Ryan





While we were working on George’s house, a neighbor came up and asked if we could make a repair on his room, which was actually George’s “basement”. He had a window opening that was covered with wood from the inside in such it way that it allowed water to pour directly into his room each time it rained. We had a small piece of plywood we were using to repair George’s house that would easily complete the job. When we asked George if we could use the plywood, he immediately gave it up, even in his poverty, he was willing to give to someone else. Another example of how God is impacting lives, even through the unsaved we are trying to reach. md
