Description:

For those of you who would love to spend time with Jamaican children, this is the trip for you!  A portion of the team, along with the United Methodist Church in Jamaica, will provide a Vacation Bible School experience and others will serve by painting or landscaping in the St. Ann's Bay area.  You will stay at the Cloisters, which is a 40 acre United Methodist camp that is managed by our host, Dell Comerie.  Teams will stay in dormitory style housing.  Evenings will include fellowship with Jamaican families in songs and praise on the veranda of the Cloisters while taking in breathtaking views over the Caribbean.
