Update:
Our missioners are currently serving at various ministry sites due to quarantine regulations, and continue to share blogs and practice community building with one another. Missioner Hannah Hagarty has returned to teaching in Jamaica after quarantining at home with her family. Missioner Megan Hamilton continues her AA ministry while also serving the Franciscan Sisters of Allegany.
We’re grateful Hannah could return to Jamaica after spending some time in lock-down back in the U.S. Enjoy some footage from her time back at home:
