What a wonderful gift it is for you to give of your whole self to this great group of Jamaican kids.

Thank you Asbury staff, volunteers and PPM !! To everyone visiting Jamaica, you inspire to me to work harder at doing good. Also for a more impactful trip, take time if available(and supplies permitting), write a log or diary about each day. What made this an impactful day. How did you bless someone. How were you blessed. God blesses our lives even more when we reflect on what has happened each day.

"I always thank my God as I remember you in my prayers, because I am seeing and hearing about your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for all the saints, especially the ones in Jamaica. I pray that you may be active in sharing your faith, so that you will have a full understanding of every good thing we have in Christ. Your love has given me great joy and encouragement, because you brothers and sisters, are refreshing the hearts of the saints." Philemon 4-7 (with a bit of paraphrase)

Praise the Lord the last group made it to Jamaica. A mission trip is suppose to be have a positive start and sometimes unforseen things happen which may cause you to wonder why you decided to go. Remember why you chose to go and the wonderful things you will be able to do through God. It's a great experience that not everyone has the chance to do. Hopefully you all will grow from the experiences you have had from the start of your trip to when you return home. Thanks to Todd Craig, Bobby and all the leaders that were so blessed to be with the group that was detained at the airport and the patience you had to have. Garrison, we miss you and are praying for you. May you have the love of God in all that you do on this mission trip. We pray your trip back home will be without stress. Love you, your grandparents

Praying for you to have an impactful trip. A trip that impacts the people of Jamaica and that impacts the youth of Tulsa. See the differences between our cultures. Learn about how much we take for granted. Let this trip shape your lives so you will be energized for missions in the future. And show love. God has given us so much. We can never outgive him, so spread it around. Love you Rebekah.

I am excited that the 3rd travel group is on a plane to Jamaica today!! They will be one tired bunch (they only got about 2 hours of sleep at the hotel) We know that they can do all things through Christ who will strengthen them! (Phil 4:13) Hopefully they will get a chance to rest tonight. I want to thank all the leaders who have done a great job with a difficult situation! We are praying for all the teams!
