It’s been just one week since we started our Hurricane Melissa updates —and already, your generosity is making a powerful impact.

Because of supporters like you, we’ve raised over half of our $40,000 goal to equip local churches with the resources they need most: food, clean water, medical supplies, and emergency shelter.

Pastors and volunteers across the island are stepping out in faith, serving their neighbors in the midst of loss. Together, we’re not only rebuilding homes—we’re rebuilding hope.

What’s Next

As our local partners continue responding to urgent needs, our Adventures Relief team is preparing to send assessment and logistics teams to support recovery efforts next week.

We’re also compiling a Volunteer Interest List for those who feel called to serve alongside Jamaican pastors in the coming months.

Every act of generosity—every prayer, every dollar, every “yes”—becomes part of Jamaica’s recovery story and a testimony of Jesus’ love in action.

Thank you for being part of this movement of hope.

P.S. We’d love for you to follow along and pray with us as our team travels to Jamaica next week. Stay updated on stories of hope and progress by following @adventuresrelief or @adventuresinmissions on social media.

Each day, updates from our trusted ministry partners in Jamaica grow more urgent. After Hurricane Melissa’s catastrophic destruction, emergency rations are nearly gone. Families are desperate for food, clean water, baby formula, and fuel.

One pastor shared through tears,

“We’ve never experienced anything like this before. Hurricane Gilbert was a Category 4, but this… this is different. We have nothing. Everything in our homes is gone—roofs are gone, and even the grocery stores were ruined.”

Entire communities are still cut off, with power and communication limited. Families are rationing food, parents are putting their children first, and babies are without formula. Yet even in this hardship, the Church is rising up to meet needs—one meal, one prayer, one act of love at a time.

Yet through it all, faith remains. Our ministry partners on the ground continue to serve tirelessly—handing out hot meals, solar lanterns, and hope, while covering their neighbors in prayer. The Church is being the hands and feet of Jesus in the middle of chaos.

Thanks to early generosity from people like you, over $5,000 has already been raised, allowing local churches to meet immediate needs. But compared to the scale of devastation, that’s only a fraction of what’s needed. Thousands of families are still waiting for help, praying for food, water, and hope.

How You Can Help Right Now

Your generosity today can bring life-saving relief to families who have lost everything:

$50 keeps a family fed and hydrated for seven critical days $100 powers community kitchens and charging stations through local churches $250 supplies construction materials and transportation for recovery teams reaching remote areas

Every dollar given goes directly to local partners bringing both physical relief and spiritual hope across Jamaica.

Our Adventures Relief team is preparing to travel to Jamaica to assess needs firsthand and strengthen partnerships for the long road ahead. As we go, your giving fuels their hands—and extends God’s compassion to the suffering.

Even when everything seems lost, God is near. Through your prayers and partnership, hope is breaking through the rubble. Thank you for standing with the people of Jamaica when they need it most.
