List of Accomplishments:
We are the oldest congregation planted in Jamaica. However, we have suffered over the years from instability and stunted growth, since this congregation has not been able to attract and maintain a steady preacher over the years because of lack of support. Since late 2009 we have been able to secure the services of a full-time preacher - Junior K. Cole - who secured his Bible education at Brown Trail School of Preaching in Texas and Freed-Hardeman University in Tennessee. With this new hope and optimism, we have taken on the task of bringing the Gospel to Port Royal - a former deadly enclave/haunt of the notorious Welsh pirate Henry Morgan - which was partially destroyed by a massive earthquake in 1692 and further set back by a massive hurricane in 1722. We have had door-knocking/tract distribution/Bible study and Gospel meeting activities at this location in 2010.

Future Goals:
We aim to accomplish the following, with the help of willing and faithful congregations wherever such be located... 1. Immediate focus – expand current membership and raise up the church in Port Royal. 7. Our next focus is to raise up a congregation in Harbour View. This is to the east of Elletson Road, where the Lord’s church once was. The building was devastated by Hurricane Gilbert in 1988, and the doors have been closed since.

Current Needs:
Full-time support for full-time evangelist - who has had to work secularly to support himself. This need for secular work saps critical time from that which ought to be spent doing the work of the Kingdom full-time. Faithful, hard-working Mission Groups to come and help us with the campaign to saturate the various areas of downtown Kingston, Harbour View, Port Royal, Rockfort, Bull Bay, and Mountain View - to name a few areas - with the gospel of Christ and to establish new congregations in some of these areas.

Additional Information:
The preacher needs a motor vehicle with which to meet the various daily undertakings, including Bible studies; visitations, giving assistance with exam preparations for students in and around the area as an evangelism strategy, and also to conduct daily devotion at the surrounding high schools.

Sponsoring Congregation:
None at this time.
Total Number of Members: 36

Additional Sponsors:
We have no sponsors at this time but are in desperate need for faithful, Christ-loving believers to join in our efforts here in this challenging side of the city of Kingston.
