Pastor Michael Cummings praying at the Wesleyan Holiness Church on Mannings Hill Road in St Andrew on Sunday. Governor General Sir Patrick Allen proclaimed two days of prayer and fasting, running from 6 p.m. last Friday to 6 p.m. yesterday, against the outbreak of COVID-19 in Jamaica. Congregations were generally sparse on the weekend as Christians observed social-distancing guidelines and a ban on mass gatherings.
