PRAYER FOCUS : JAMAICA

Hurricane IVAN left a wake of damage and destruction across Jamaica over the past weekend.  To date 18 people have been reported dead.  Many roads on the island are still impassable due to flooding and landslides, especially along the south coast.  The news from Heather Lennox is that she is safe and well, but she has no water or electricity in her home.  Give thanks that Heather is safe and pray too for the people of the Cayman Island, where very many homes have been damaged.
