Hurricane Melissa devastated our communities in Jamaica and destroyed our over 100-year-old Perth Town/ Bellevue United Church— a place of worship, learning, and unity for generations. We’re raising funds to rebuild the church and help restore damaged homes. Every donation brings hope back to our community.

Rebuild Hope. Rebuild Home. Rebuild Our Church.
Dear Friends, Family, and Community Partners,
We reach out today with humble and heavy hearts. Our communities in Jamaica is facing one of the most devastating moments in our lifetime. Hurricane Melissa swept through with unimaginable power, destroying homes, families’ livelihoods, and places we cherished deeply.
Among the greatest losses is our beloved church — a historic landmark over 100 years old (Bellevue United Church)
This church was never just a building.
It was the heart of our community.
✨ It was where generations learned to read
✨ Where school lessons were once taught
✨ Where families prayed together
✨ Where elders found strength and comfort
✨ Where children grew in faith, love, and unity
Today, it stands in ruins. The walls are damaged, the roof torn away, and the inside left unrecognizable. But what remains intact is the spirit, the memories, and the legacy this church carries.
Now, we have an opportunity to rebuild not just structures — but hope.
We are launching this fundraiser to:
️ Rebuild our historic over 100-year-old church
Help restore damaged homes for affected families
Support community recovery after Hurricane Melissa
This church has shaped countless lives. And with your help, it will continue to shape many more.
We are asking for your support — whether through financial contributions, donated materials, volunteer help, or simply sharing this campaign. No gift is too small. Every act of kindness brings us one step closer to restoration.
Let us stand together as one community, one family, and one people determined to rise again.
Thank you for your prayers, your generosity, and your compassion.
May God bless you abundantly for all you do.
Let’s rebuild history. Let’s rebuild home. Let’s rebuild our church.
