Centre (HBLC), a US-based company have signed a memorandum of understanding to establish a five-star quality lifestyle center/resort on a part of the property at Camp Verly in Spring Gardens, St. Catherine.
The signing took place on June 26, 2016 after months of negotiation and meetings between the parties.
Citing a letter from the book, Manuscript Releases, Volume 14, pg. 248, by Ellen G. White, Pastor Levi Johnson, President of CJC suggested that, providentially, this Sanitarium is fulfilling a wish of the Adventist Pioneer Ellen G. White.
The full quotation reads as follows:
“I spent three weeks at the Paradise Valley Sanitarium, but was sick all the time. I contracted a severe cold on my way down there. In order that the others in the building might not be exposed, I kept very closely to my own room. The day before I left, Brother and Sister Richardson insisted on seeing me, that they might tell me of the many advantages that Jamaica possesses for sanitarium work. I certainly hope that this field may be entered by earnest laborers. I shall not attempt to tell you what Brother and Sister Richardson told me; for I was sick at the time, and could not hear all they said.” Manuscript Releases [Nos. 1081–1135, 1984–1985]. (1993). (Vol. 14, p. 248). Ellen G. White Estate.
