  6. More Quick Facts Jamaica • The Land: Most of the land is mountainous. The land near the coasts is flatter. The Arawak Indians who first lived there called the land Xaymaca, “land of wood and water.” Beautiful beaches attract lots of tourists. • Weather: Jamaica is warm and humid all year round. The rainy season lasts from May to October.

  8. LET’S PRAY… • for our missionaries and the Jamaican pastors and churches. • for the kids of Jamaica. Many come from broken homes. Drugs and crime are common, and many families have members with AIDS. • for more workers to help reach the eastern part of the island, to work at the Bible school, and to work with kids. • for the Maroons and the Rastafarians, who need to serve Jesus, not other spirits.
