Jamaica Deaf Community - JDV // Families // June 2024
Trip Overview
Looking for a way to go on mission as a family? During this summer opportunity, Engedi parents and their kids will come alongside the Caribbean Christian Centre for the Deaf in their vision to reach, teach, and nurture the Deaf of Jamaica. Worldwide, the Deaf are an unreached people group with limited access to scripture and discipleship opportunities due to significant barriers in language access and community services. Families will have the opportunity to stay at the Jamaica Deaf Village, a 100-acre campus in the rural hills of the island where Deaf parents and their children live, work, receive training, and grow in fellowship. Engedi Families will come alongside Deaf employees through hands-on work projects, enjoy fellowship with the residents of JDV, have the chance to visit CCCD's K-12 schools, and learn much about Deaf culture and gospel access.Please note that each family member must apply separately. Families must be able to commit to monthly team meetings, participating in group fundraisers and meeting personal fundraising deadlines, and reading trip curriculum materials.
