Trip To Jamaica: Final Update

Jamaica was a wonderful experience. I was incredibly moved by the worship and services. Some of the most powerful and sincere worship I have experienced. There was one particular lady who sang, "Alabaster Box," and it was fantastic. I was moved to tears!

The people of Jamaica are very kind and hospitable people. They lavished us with gifts and kindness. I want to say that I count it an honor to call these people friends. I love Pastor Stewart. They were very complimentary of the preaching, as well as very attentive.

The country of Jamaica is beautiful. We drove a route from Kingston to Ochos Rios that was incredible. It was incredible in more than one way: The scenery was beautiful. The roads were narrow, and the driving was scary.

I plan to go again next year. I really enjoyed it. Also had a great time with my friends who went with me. Over all it was a great experience, including eating goat.

Trip To Jamaica: Update 4

The theme for the week has been, "Beyond the Walls: Earnestly Contending for the Faith." A lot of focus on the importance of doctrine as well as preaching on the Godhead. There is a new lady getting baptized in Jesus name tomorrow night. She has a Trinitarian background. She was in the service tonight and I preached on the Godhead. God did it!

Trip To Jamaica: Update 1

I am really excited about leaving in the morning on my trip to Jamaica. I am making a 3 day stop in Ohio to preach for a friend there who will also be accompanying me, as well as two other ministers from his church, on my Jamaican journey. I will be preaching 11 times in about 8-9 days, so it is going to be a busy week and a half.

I hope to get in a little sight seeing while I am there. Not sure how that I going to work out as I will be in church at least once a day. Either way it is going to be a blast. I am believing God for great things.

The negative side is that I am going to be missing my family really bad. I am going to miss "The Great One," our 2 week old foster son, as well as Lil Red. Most of all I am going to miss my wonderful wife. Oh yeah, my in-laws are going to be in town. They are probably glad that I am going to be gone, but I will miss seeing them as well.

I will be taking a camera and snapping lots of pictures which I will be posting here. I will be posting pictures of the services as well as the scenery. Maybe even a few video clips of the music. I love the Jamaican way of Praising God. They are great people!

Not to mention I am flying my air line of choice, AA. So, I will be getting frequent flyer miles! All things considered this is about to be a fantastic week!!!!!!!
