A Message from Pastor Jack
HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO EACH OF YOU!
I am looking forward to seeing many of you this coming
Thanksgiving Sunday at White Chapel!
VIDEO CRUSADES
We are so thankful for the video projector that White Chapel sent down to Jamaica a few days ago with our Chaplains Tom Burton and George Cooper.
Beginning in late November we plan to begin outdoor and indoor Video Evangelism Outreaches across this section of Jamaica. Many of these "mini-revivals" will be in the rural, mountain areas where people do not have access to television, movies, etc. Almost the entire community will usually come out to these special "soul winning crusades" & many will receive Christ into their hearts and begin their walk with the Lord. With the help of special music and prayer teams, we look forward to reaching many 'un-churched' people across this section of the Island!
ICE CREAM CELEBRATION IN JAMAICA!
In the past few days we were so blessed to take Ice Cream to all of the poor children of our five schools here in Jamaica. Sam & I had a great time as we witnessed these precious children enjoying a rare pleasure. We carried Ice Cream to the children in these schools that are a part of our Mission here in Jamaica:
Windsor Basic School
Cornerstone Christian Academy
Silver Grove Basic-White Chapel
Waterloo Basic School
Guy's Hill Basic School
This precious gift was provided for by Sister Tomoko Dunbar of White Chapel. We will have pictures to show the joy, excitement and gratitude from these students and their teachers. Thank you, Tomoko! Thank you White Chapel!
JAMAICA INTERVIEW WITH SAM SCHMUTTE
SAM SCHMUTTE, son of STEPHEN & GLENDA SCHMUTTE & grandson of JEAN HAMO has been with us here in Jamaica for the past five weeks.
Question: Sam, what are a few of the highlights of your mission trip to Jamaica?
Sam: Being here in Jamaica spending time with Pastor Jack in fellowship has been nothing less than a blessing and a growing experience, let alone exciting! God's work is awesome to witness and to be able to help and serve in anyway that I can."
HONEYMOON TRIP TO JAMAICA
Sam & Elizabeth Wilson from Nora will be coming to Jamaica in early December to celebrate their "Honeymoon!" We have been blessed by Brother Sam and his mission work down in Bolivia a few years ago. Congratulations Sam and Elizabeth!
BIBLE OLEGE SPONSORSHIPS
WINONA AND I HAVE BEEN SO BLESSED TO BE ABLE TO SPONSOR FIVE STUDENTS IN THEIR FIRST YEAR OF BIBLE COLLEGE! These ladies will be ordained to share the gospel here in Jamaica. Will you pray for these ladies? Some of them are teachers in our school down in Windsor where we have church and school in a large ghetto.

DOMINICAN REPUBLIC AND HAITI
The President of the Dominican Republic has personally invited our Chaplaincy Training Team to come to his country to train chaplains!
Chaplain Tom Burton, Hamilton County Jail System, will lead this team in early 2011 to the Dominican Republic, where we anticipate that many candidates will be trained to take the gospel and other ministries into the jails, prisons and hospitals of that Island. This trainee team will consist of Pastor-Chaplain Burton; Pastor-Chaplain George Cooper; Charley Collins-(Haiti Director;) Terry McMillan (White Chapel); Pastor Maxo Dejanis, (Jamaica) & Jack Terry.
Can we even imagine the potential converts to Christ through this powerful ministry? Will you pray for the Dominican Republic Chaplaincy training in early 2011? Will you pray that we might, in the future, open churches, also, on that Island?
HAITI IS A VERY STRONG POSSIBILITY: We are also convinced that the Island of Haiti is a fertile soil for the training of Chaplains. Pastor Maxo Dejanis, our former CCCWM Director in Haiti, has many contacts across that Island and he is certain that we can recruit a very large group of candidates. We believe that they will be so excited to receive credentials that will allow them to reach, teach & preach to many prisoners and the sick and elderly across Haiti.
MISSION TEAMS COMING TO JAMAICA
We are so excited to have a number of teams and individuals coming to Jamaica in the near future.
Anderson University: Anderson will be arriving on December 29th and will be involved in a variety of ministries.
Some of those ministries will be: VBS in each of our schools; video ministries in the evenings; testimonies and worship in the large nursing home down at the bay; visitation and evangelism in the Girl's Detention Center; ministries in some of our churches and other outreaches.
We will also give these young missionaries a number of other projects such as painting, planting fruit trees, etc. One of their special "hikes" will be across the mountain on "the trail of tears."
White Chapel: We are anticipating, also, the arrival of a team from White Chapel in early 2011. Will you pray that this will happen? Remember! Miracles happen in 'miracle territory!'
CHARLIE COLLINS is coming to Jamaica on December 8th Brother Charlie Collins is our Haiti Director. He will visit us for a few days in December and will share some ministry with us while he is here. We are so happy to welcome this precious Ambassador of the Gospel.
MIKE & ANN CASEY will be coming to Jamaica in early February 2011 where we will be honored to host them for 3 weeks. Mike and Ann are members of Faith Community Church in Noblesville and have made many previous mission trips to Jamaica. Their church sponsors the school and church in Waterloo, Jamaica. Welcome Mike & Ann!
MARKHAM & ANN HINES are currently enrolled in ministry preparation in Texas. They have been a part of the White Chapel Congregation in the past. They are preparing to come to Jamaica on a mission trip in May 2011 to do a number of ministries and, mainly, to help build a Security Fence around the compound here in Golden Grove where we live and where the church, two schools, small orphanage, etc. are located. Let's pray for Markham and Ann Hines as they begin their first missionary journey overseas.
THANK YOU FOR GIVING TO THE LORD!
We wish to thank each of you who pray for the work here in Jamaica. Will you pray for all of the children & teens in our schools and churches? Will you pray for our national pastors, school teachers & other leaders? Will you pray that many souls will be added to the Kingdom in the coming months? Will you pray for our other missions in Haiti, Bolivia & India? May the Lord bless each of you for your praying, giving & other missions.
At this moment we are so happy to have Sam Schmutte, from White Chapel working with us here in Jamaica. We are in the process of planting several gardens to provide food for the compound. We already have many banana trees, coconuts, papayas, oranges and other fruits.
LOOKING FORWARD TO SEEING YOU!!!
I am scheduled to be at White Chapel on Sunday, November 28th (Next Sunday) I hope to share a message on: "The Joy of Thanksgiving!" It will be an honor and joy to see each of you. The Lord has laid it upon my heart, also, to pray for each of you daily.
May the Lord bless and keep you till we meet again!
Love and prayers,
Jack and Winona Terry
P.S. Winona is doing well here in Jamaica. She is so blessed to have such loving care. The people here remember her as their "Mama-san." Thanks for your prayers, also."
