Over 4,000 adventurers, Pathfinders, Ambassadors, and Young Adults convened at Trelawny Stadium from April 18-22nd under the theme “Youth Engaged in Action for Jesus.” The highlight of the Jamboree was the various community services that were done on Sabbath afternoon and the baptism which took place on the final day of the event. Six young people were baptized.

Pako Mokgwane of the General Conference and Felecia Datus of the Center for Online Evangelism were the main guest speakers. IAD was represented by Samuel Telemaque. The Jamboree was organized by Dane Fletcher, Jamaica Union Conference Youth Director and his team of Conference Youth Directors. The Union Officers and Conference officers supported the event. They encouraged the Youth to receive and run with the baton of identity, mission, and leadership so that “Youth Engaged in Action for Jesus” may be a reality. #YEA4Jesus 

Unión Adventista Panameña (Panama Union) under the able leadership of Misael González and his team of conference directors, conduct annual Youth Evangelistic endeavors dubbed Jabes, a prayer for the Lord to increase their territory. Young people are mobilized to perform community services, door to door to ministry, small group and preaching ministry. It runs for 2 months. This year the target city was Panama. As a result of their efforts, 485 were baptized and 34 churches were organized.
