Star Throwers Trip 2000

Reflection: Montego Bay, Jamaica

Eleven students and four chaperons went to Montego Bay, Jamaica on the Star Throwers 2001 Spring Break trip. The team worked in two orphanages, a girl's home, an infirmary, and a high school painting playing with children, feeding babies, and sharing the word of God. The group also spoke and sang in church services and participated in a harvest festival in which the people of the town bring fruits of their labor to the church and present it to God.

Kareen Pickett, one of the chaperons on the trip said, "As a group we played games, shared devotions, sang, prayed, laughed and cried together, we were an awesome team." The team also got a chance to see sites like Dunn's River Falls and go snorkeling.
