Jamaica III: Diaspora

Pastor Andrew plans to link the Jamaican diaspora in the US, Canada and the UK to reach out to the homeland, which has 2.7 million people.

With apparently 20,000 Jamaicans leaving their island each year, the economy -- and society -- is in some danger of hollowing out.

Yet Jamaica has the potential for a bigger imprint on the world. It's already famous for its exquisite Blue Mountain coffee, reggae -- and being a tropical island never stopped it from sending bobsled teams to the Winter Olympics!! That's great spirit!
