Description
Summary:This report of the Church of God National Convention highlights intergenerational priorities for sustainability. The purpose of the convention was to strengthen the members, but as an interdisciplinary research team of health care providers, and educators, the goal was to maximize and develop methodologies that might assist in improving communication, education, and health. The priorities are clustered in three generations of church leaders: the Veterans, Issacharians, and Naaman’s Maid. The framework and culture are explained for global understanding of the efforts within the Jamaican church; expectantly, other ministries will find this work useful. The implications are discussed.
