A Trip to St. Lucia

Building momentum in St. Lucia towards effective witnessing.

I returned to St. Lucia for three weeks this Fall, from October 20-November 10. The work of “ecclesial maintenance” continued. Most of the work during this visit involved assisting the local brothers and sisters with various personal issues and problems and providing Bible classes and exhortations.

As an ecclesia, we discussed the importance of personal witnessing, and the members agreed to try to interest their relatives, friends, and neighbors with Bible Classes in homes or at the Mission House. We also plan to have a campaign based on Bible Prophecy. However, not having an experienced couple residing in St. Lucia for a year or more will make it difficult to follow up with interested contacts generated by the campaign. Using ZOOM for regular follow-up sessions may be a workable alternative. Of course, personal, face-to-face interaction is always preferable. 

Bro. Martin and Sis. Lois Webster are planning to return to St. Lucia in January 2025. During their visit and, God willing, my next stay, we hope to lay the groundwork for a campaign in the fall. I hope to return in February or early March to continue the work and build momentum towards effective witnessing on an individual and ecclesial basis with the support of the CBMC. I will keep you posted on the progress toward our campaign goals.
