Jamaica 2010
The power of the resurrection is in us! God uses each of our missions to reveal something of Him. It could be a very simple concept that when received is life changing. For example, during our prayer on the morning before the mission, Brother Chris realized how special he was in the eyes of God. Tears began to roll down his eyes as this feeling of love overtook him. Likewise, during this year’s mission trip to Jamaica, our team experienced firsthand what it is to have the power of the resurrection in us. It was a gigantic step in our development as Christians and in our walk with the Lord. What are the events that lead us to experience this power which is the living God in us, the Holy Spirit in us? We surrendered to Him and allowed Him to guide us and teach us every step of the way. We did what we could not have done in the flesh. How does one begin to address the needs of 300 people in one room with our limited resources and manpower? We did it because He is in us and He is not limited and He is all powerful.
Our team included Louis Kamika, Jennifer Parke, Glenvina Peters, Chris and Pauline Ramsey, Hyacinth Silvera, Rebecca Toruno Doctors Val and John Royes and I. It was beautiful to see our team comprised of mostly Jamaican brothers and sisters willing to work in their country in the name of Jesus. This year we had the privilege of being accompanied by Pastor Danne King from Life Gate Christian Center. All of us worked together in the body of Christ to bring Him Glory and praise. We saw over four hundred patients in three days of work. Pastor King shared the Gospel each morning before starting the medical mission. All participants herd the Gospel. Pastor King also prayed for the sick in the name of Jesus and some that came in with walking difficulties dropped their canes and walk along pastor at a good speed. Many people came to the Lord, lives were touched and people were transformed. Pastor King also preached for three consecutive nights on The Kingdom, The Power of the Resurrection and Where is your Faith?
We experienced the love of God and the peace of Christ among us and with our Jamaican brethren.
Pastors Powel and Wright of the Stettin Baptist Church of God were as loving as always. Sisters cooked for us and tended to our needs with love and attention to detail. Most importantly there was love and gratitude from the hundreds of patients attended. We were unable to meet all their needs but we were able to address all major complaints with the medicines we were carrying. Most importantly, they herd and most of the received the Gospel of Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior. If you would like to have an encounter with God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit plan to join us in Jamaica 2011.
