In April of 2015 a group of missionaries mostly from California left the comfort and familiarity of their homes to embark on an adventure, to discover the sacred presence of God in the people of Jamaica.
Like the 70 disciples that Jesus sent ahead of him to the towns and villages he intended to visit, this group returned rejoicing, eager to tell their stories and to encourage others to go and see how God is present in the lives and hearts of the people of Jamaica. These are their stories.
