Hey Everyone!!
Josh and I are doing well here in Montego Bay, Jamaica. We just had the privilege of celebrating our one year anniversary this past weekend! We took time away at a resort close by to celebrate our marriage. We had a great time of relaxation, refreshment and hearing from the Lord!!!

My parents came to visit us!! We had such a good time. It was great to have a piece of home come to us!!! The picture of us is at Dunn's River Falls. We also got to go to Rick's Cafe and watch Josh and many more crazy people jump off a 40 ft. cliff.










Last week for us was an eventful week. Our base director here had her mother pass away unexpectedly. We as staff made a 5 hour drive to St. Thomas for the funeral. Four days after the death of our director's mother we recieved tragic news from the other YWAM base here in Jamaica. Cameroy, son of a ywam Jamaican staff leader, was stuck by lighting killing him instantly. Shortly after this event members from the same base were in a car accident, thankfully no one was seriously injuried. We have heavy hearts for the family and the other base here in Jamaica.
The two pictures here are of the staff at the two YWAM Jamaica bases. We are having worship time one of them and a group photo in the other.


Josh and I as well as YWAM Jamaica have felt this heavy attack from the enemy within the last month. From things being stolen to the events above.

We are looking forward to the upcoming Discipleship Training School(DTS) staff training which starts on the 14th of September. We have currently 8 staff and 16 students for the DTS which begins the 21st of September. This week we are just running around getting ready for the DTS.

We thank all of you for reading our blog and for praying for us as well. Please feel free to email us and just let us know how you are doing. A pray that has been anwsered is our computer is fixed and we should have it by this weekend. Praise the Lord!!! thank you for keeping that in your prayers! Plus we didn't pay anything for the fixing of it!

May God Bless you. May He make His face shine upon you. Be His witnesses!!
With Much Love to all of you!
Josh and Renita Lapp
