Clarendon
Selling a home in Clarendon, Jamaica, requires careful planning, market knowledge, and a solid strategy to attract the right buyers. As one…
Clarendon’s Free Town Foundation, outreach arm of a Church of God of Prophecy congregation, planned a health fair and back-to-school event on its church grounds, aiming for 300 backpacks and 10 scholarships with diaspora support from Toronto and Brooklyn.
Four men, including the church’s security guard, were detained after speakers and lights worth $660,000 were stolen from Spalding New Testament Church in Clarendon, a warning on church equipment security.
The NHT reserved 100 of 351 new Clarendon housing units exclusively for sugar workers. A targeted fix for one obstacle, competition for units, that doesnt necessarily solve the other: affordability.
The NHT is putting $18 billion into nine Clarendon housing schemes over three and a half years, alongside 8,500 planned mortgages this year. What the Monymusk groundbreaking actually commits to.
In a long-running fight over land, a church and manse at Belle Plain, Clarendon, the Supreme Court ordered a US-incorporated Mount Zion Apostolic church to lodge $4.5 million security for costs before its claim could go forward.
Pastor Pauline Stephenson began Faith Anointed Ministries with nine people under thatch in Thompson Town, Clarendon, then bought land starting with half an acre for $500,000 and built a 500-seat church that opened in 2008.
Only 800 of 10,000 applicants for one NHT Clarendon scheme actually qualified once income tests were applied. Hundreds of allocated homes now sit unsold while the Trust works through the queue.
A 2014 Observer profile traces Cari-Med founder Glen Christian from Clarendon postman to owner of nearly 400,000 square feet of property, including the address where he once delivered mail, guided by his mother’s belief that God placed us here as stewards.
