UPDATE:

8:45 PM, October 30: THANK YOU LORD! All are safe! Earlier today,Fr. Ernest Chikwata, Mission Manager and Director of Spirituality for Mustard Seed Communities Jamaica and Br. Bekezela, Novitiate of MSC's Formation Program, traveled from Jacob’s Ladder toward Blessed Assurance. When road conditions made driving impossible, he walked nine miles (!!!) through debris and flood-damaged areas to reach the home and ensure that everyone was safe and cared for.  We have yet to assess the full extent of damages to Blessed Assurance, and the rest of our homes. From here, we'll work to clear a safe passage to and from the home and to restore communication to our homes across the island.  We thank God for the safety of the children, the courage of our staff, and the faith that continues to guide our Mustard Seed family through this time.

 

This video shows the devastation at Blessed Assurance from the hurricane. There is a way of donating to the relief fund at the end of the video as they have a long way to go until their life is “back to normal”. Continue praying.
