Jamaica Volunteers in Mission |
Dr.
Dean and Keitha Thomson
|
Since 1989 several
groups of dedicated individuals have been traveling to Falmouth to bring medical care and
other assistance to the people of this small Jamaican town. Our group makes 2 trips per year, one in January. one in July. We usually take about 28-30 individuals per trip, and live in the hostel which was completed by one of the mission groups a few years ago to house the visiting missionaries and serve the local Methodist church. Many of the missionaries are medical people, but there is plenty of work for non-medical volunteers as well. Current projects include finishing construction on the Falmouth Infirmary, miscellaneous painting and repair at the local all age school, and construction projects for needy individuals. For further information regarding travel arrangements, please visit our Miscellaneous Information page. We would love to have you join us on one of our future trips. If you are unable to join us in person, you may want to consider supporting our efforts with financial donations, used eyeglasses, prescriptions (new or no longer needed) or non-prescription drugs.
