Churches of Jamaica

Church
So many people are trying to figure out what makes Jamaica and Jamaicans so REVERED. Could it be because we have a long history of being a church-loving people? Jamaican has a zillion churches, or pretty close to a zillion. We are a God-fearing country and for the most post we are very religious-tolerant. The only religions that have no place in Jamaica are those that have to do with the praising and worshiping of Satan, aka the devil. If you were to set up a tent or a tarpaulin, on any day of the week, and start saying something about 'loving God' you are guaranteed a Jamaican audience. Absolutely amazing.

Most Christian denominations are represented in Jamaica. From the world's first churches (Catholic and Anglican) to the world's most recent (Church of God of this and Church of Christ of that). The buildings range from very elaborate to very simple. One thing for sure, every Jamaican knows a church when we see one, in Jamaica.

The little REVERED country that could, Jamaica.

Bonita Jamaica
Beautiful Place. Amazing People.

See you in Jamaica.

  1. I love your blog and the pictures that go along with it. One thing though-- could you put the name of the churches and cities that they're in? Would be most helpful... :-)

  2. I was in a Christian Singing Group that went to Jamaica in 1975 and 1976. We were called New Wind. Do you have any history on our tours there? We sang at churches in Montego Bay, Ocho Rios,and Port Antonio. We stayed at the Carribbean Club at Runaway Bay. Any information that you can find would be helpful. If you find anyone who remembers us and can record their remembrances it would be a very special thing for us. Please let me know if you hear or find anything out.

  3. Write more, thats all I have to say. Literally, it seems
    as though you relied on the video to make your point.
    You definitely know what youre talking about, why waste your intelligence on just posting videos to
    your site when you could be giving us something informative to read?

  10. I leave a response each time I appreciate a article on a website
    or I have something to add to the conversation. Usually it is
    caused by the sincerness communicated in the post I looked
    at. And after this article "Churches of Jamaica".
    I was moved enough to post a thought :) I do have 2 questions for you
    if it's allright. Could it be simply me or does it appear like some of these remarks appear like coming from brain dead visitors? :-P And, if you are posting on other social sites, I'd like to keep up with everything fresh you have to post.
    Would you list the complete urls of your shared pages like your linkedin
    profile, Facebook page or twitter feed?

  27. Today, I went to the beach front with my children.

    I found a sea shell and gave it to my 4 year old daughter and said "You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear." She
    put the shell to her ear and screamed. There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her ear.
    She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is totally off topic but I had to tell someone!
