Alice has a keen sense of humor and is a notorious
flirt. A tiny little lady, she exudes love, laughter
and deep spirituality. Once a lively dancer, Miss
Alice now struggles with asthma and high blood
pressure.

Neville has a long list of complications: high blood
pressure, diabetes, glaucoma, poor circulation in
the feet and on and on. His deteriorating health is
beginning to restrict his mobility.  
Many older people in Jamaica struggle to survive. Especially those, like our aged friends depicted
on this page, who were not blessed with the gift of children.

Even if these elderly receive a pension, which is not the norm for many in Jamaica, it is totally
inadequate to provide for the basic necessities even without the rising cost of living.

The elderly in Jamaica struggle especially with declining health. In many cases, medical assistance
and prescriptive drugs are way out of their reach.
Mr "Rock" Murphy, 92 years young, still works
in his field despite being physically challenged.

Baptised this year, Rock's throaty rendition of
"The Lord is My Shephard ..." is a real treat.

Like all our aged friends depicted here, Rock, is
also childless. Like all our other friends depicted
here, a latrine would also be a great blessing.
"Rise in the
presence of the
aged, show
respect for the
elderly and revere
your God."

Christine and Headley Hamilton
Alice And Neville Russell
Headley recently suffered a stroke, leaving him languishing in bed. Sightless, Miss Christie, is not
able to care for him as she would like.

Bread Basket Ministries is their main source of income for food, home care, supplies, medical
attention, doctor visits and prescriptive drugs.
As Pastors and devout Christians, the
Hamiltons preached and worshipped in many
small churches scattered in rural communities
across the island.

A powerful prayer warrior, Miss Christie lost
her sight some 5 years ago, but remains
wholly trusting in the Lord. She inspires many
with her humility, peaceful aura and fervent
prayers.
Neville's woefully inadequate government pension is approximately US$60 per month. They're in
dire need of an outdoor latrine.

Miss Alice suffers with terrible bouts of asthma, often wheezing and gasping for breath. The lack
of a ceiling in their one room home results in condensation falling off their zinc roof which in turn
escalates her asthma attacks.
