Maranatha School for the Deaf in Top Hill

Rachel and Brett are serving at Maranatha School for the Deaf at Top Hill, Jamaica. The school literally sits on top of the hill, providing gorgeous views of St. Elizabeth, Jamaica’s Garden Parish, in every direction. Administered by Jamaica Mennonite Church, the school has 22 students, some of whom live at the school and others who commute each day.

Rachel and Brett teach computers to all of the children and sometimes assist in teaching other subjects such as math. Brett noted that at first she was terrified of teaching but has gained confidence as she continues to teach! Both Rachel and Brett relate to the students after school hours as well.
