Navin Lawrence of Central Jamaica Conference emerged champion of the Jamaica Union Bible Connection Finals on Sabbath, October 10, 2026, earning the opportunity to represent Jamaica at the Inter-American Division finals in the Dominican Republic on November 21.
Lawrence topped a field of 10 finalists at the Meadowvale Seventh-day Adventist Church, leading a strong showing by Central Jamaica Conference as Faith Chambers finished second on her birthday. Miguel Foster of West Jamaica Conference placed third.
The championship brought together two finalists from each of the Jamaica Union’s five conferences for five rounds of questions testing their knowledge of the Book of Daniel and the Spirit of Prophecy.
“Seventy weeks are determined for your people and for your holy city…” Where in Scripture can those words be found?
It was among the questions the finalists faced in a competition in which the lead changed several times before Lawrence secured the championship in the final round.
