First, thanks to all of you who joined with our Jamaican mission team on Saturday, June 20 to hear about the Ministry Centre, the work at St. Andrew, Short Term Teams, and Lutheran Hour Ministries. Visit the Friends of Jamaica website to see videos of all these presentations and to download the PowerPoint presentations. Archives of the most recent newsletters are also there. Here is a link to our partner support form for your prayerful consideration; you can also find the document under “Donations” on our Friends of Jamaica site. Here is also a link to the meeting minutes written up by Erin Mackenzie.
One of the most exciting aspects of supporting LCMS mission fields using the FORO model is inviting others to lean into their roles in the body of Christ. Some are called to go, others to pray or give, and still others to tell. “Telling” is simple with a kit of advocacy resources about the Church’s work in Jamaica: postcards, flyers (letter sized), and bulletin inserts (B&W and color). These are available on Synod’s project and donations pages for Pastor Ite and for the Jamaica Lutheran Mission.
