Mission Trip to Jamaica 2015

SsAM YYF took a mission trip to Montego Bay, Jamaica in the summer of 2015. We visited the Blossom Gardens Orphanage, St. James Parish, and a Senior Home.

Events

OUR TOY DRIVE began Easter Sunday, April 5, 2015, and ran throughout April. We asked for toys for children 3 months to 7 years old.

WASHING OUR WAY TO JAMAICA!   YYF sponsored a Mega Car Wash, Saturday April 11, 2015, at the Foulk Road EXXON, on the corner of Foulk and Silverside Roads.

We held a Chic-Fil-A fundraiser in the Concord Mall every Monday in April, 2015. Patrons referenced “SsAM-YYF” when making a purchase and helped the youth group in fundraising efforts for our trip to Jamaica.  YYF members and parents were there to “Greet You!”

Dining Jamaica Evening, April 18, 2015 in the SsAM auditorium. Island cuisine, live music and entertainment, games and fun!  Island attire was welcomed!
