Almost in Jamaica!

Greetings from beautiful Port Maria, Jamaica! Our home for the week, the Casa Maria, has been feverishly preparing for our arrival. I have been almost as busy finalizing our work projects, ministry opportunities, and purchasing materials. We will have 5 work projects for the week at 4 different locations.

-- Infirmary: A group will be scraping the porch overhang and repainting it. Most of those there spend time on the porch during the hot days. A few will paint a mural, and all will be spending time with the people there.
-- Prestonland: The church is in desperate need for roof repair and paint. We will be helping Pastor Kermit. UGA Wesley teams have been working with him and his 6 churches since 2003.
-- Bremmer Vale: One of the local high school needs some concrete work done. Two teams will assist in the construction.
-- McGiver's Farm: An emphasis has been placed in the region for increased farming. Our team will help McGiver and his family clearing the land and planting for this season's crops.

I will post as soon as I can once all 59 of us are under one roof. Should the need arise you may reach me at william@ugawesley.org or 1.876.299.1931 on my Jamaican cell.

I am excited to finally have the team join me. We appreciate your support and covet your prayers.



Love,
William for the Team
