The end is near. Today was our last day of “ministry” here in Jamaica and we went out with a bang. We gathered together with Christians from all over the island at the Western Christian Convention. Of course, we did have a few miscommunications which led us to the wrong location. So we hijacked some strangers off the side of the road to direct us to the right location only to arrive just in time to jump on stage and begin worshipping. No set up was necessary. We just grabbed whatever was on stage and prayed that we would sound decent (which of course we did...) What an adventure.

We enjoyed seven and a half hours of Jamaican preaching and worshipping which is truly an experience to be had. (In case you're wondering, Jamaican preaching and worshipping consists of yelling, growling, jumping, dancing, hallelujahs, percussion, hand waving, and all that good stuff.) During the morning session we played two songs for special music. Let me just say, the Jamaican's love Elijah Dally's song “Hallelujah to Our God.” But who doesn't? After the first three hours we ate our lunch which was one of our favorite Jamaican meals... Jerk Chicken. Spicy, yummy, finger lickin' good.

You may be wondering how our day could have possibly gotten any better. Well let me just tell you; we got to enjoy the afternoon session. Trust me, there is no lack of passion here. We had the great privilege of ending the session and the convention with a concert. This was the largest group of people we've worked with the entire trip, and they all responded so well. We didn't have a projector to shine lyrics, but everyone worshipped all the same.

P.S. We found out the hard way that our “Rock On” hand sign has a demonic meaning in Jamaica. Oops. That would've been nice to know earlier this week. Thanks Zack Moody.

After the convention we returned to our villa which was thankfully not a scam, though it seems too good to be true. We're on the top of a hill overlooking the beach. We have a pool, a maid, a cook... throw a couple beds in there and you've got one happy Frontline group.

We have just had such an incredible time here in Jamaica. We dove into the Jamaican culture and feel like we are one with the Jamaicans. We have been so blessed and I pray we have been able to spread blessings across the island glorifying God's wonderful name.

God Bless,

Abby
