Our partners in the Diocese of Jamaica and the Cayman Islands have shared two videos with us to show what Christmas looks like in Jamaica; a rendition of O Holy Night on the steel drums, and a Patois Bible reading of the Gospel of Luke. A huge thank you to the diocese for sharing - scroll down to watch both, and see the full Christmas around the World collection on our YouTube channel.
