July 2015 Trip Highlights
The Isaiahsixeight team which traveled to southeastern Jamaica in July returned with many new friends and too many stories to recount. The group tackled various projects to include renovations to the basic school, bathrooms, and bus stop in Johnson Mountain to Vacation Bible Schools in Old Pera, Port Morant, and Barking Lodge. A total of five VBS sessions were conducted over the course of four days for over 200 Jamaican adults and children! The group was also able to visit the Infirmary in Port Morant and spend time with the residents there as well as attending the local church service for Pastor Courtney Spence in Rowlandsfield. We've included just a few photos to highlight what God accomplished through the team in 2015. You can view more photos on the new IS68 Facebook group page: www.facebook.com/IsaiahsixeightJamaica.

One of the residents of the Infirmary in Port Morant who greeted us with a smile and followed our group as we made rounds and met with many of the residents there.
A resident of the Infirmary in Port Morant, Nathan Frazier received a gift from IS68. He could be heard playing his new harmonica in the halls and singing during our visit there. Terry Fry, Mark Luther, Amy Luther, and Wes Savage are also pictured.
Mrs. Audrey hosted the team for dinner at her home one night during the week. Tamaula is pictured along with Thomas, Claire, Hannah, and Michael.
Vacation Bible School at Port Morant Methodist. With one of the biggest crowds, there were well over 50 children and adults in attendance. Many of them remembered one or more of the songs from last year! Hannah Luther is pictured with several children.
Just a couple of the unforgettable kids we met during VBS. They loved to color and participate during arts and crafts time! This photo was taken at Old Pera.
The work crew helped renovate the basic school in Johnson Mountain. With the help of several IS68 Jamaica friends, the project was completed ahead of schedule. Mark Luther and Alan Christian are pictured along with Jamaican friends, Keith Rhoden and Michael Brown.
This is the bus stop at Johnson Mountain during the reconstruction process. Alan Christian, Ewuan Brown, and Keith Rhoden are in the photo.
The team visited the community of Seaside one afternoon. These are a few of the children which attended the VBS in Port Morant along with Amy Luther, the VBS leader for the week.
