Following
the major changes announced by the World Mission Council, Roy and Jane are
no longer official Church of Scotland Mission Partners. Their work in Jamaica
continues, however, and a charitable company has been set up by a number of
their former partner congregations in Edinburgh and Perth Presbyteries to
provide support through congregations and individuals. More information is
available in the February 2006 Leaflet.
Please support this enterprise and Roy and Jane’s work through your
prayers.
See
further photographs of the Dodmans and life in Jamaica here.
