PastorMills said some members of the community remained displaced, two-and-a-half years later
Residents were locked down for months, he said, and the NGOs could not get in because of flooding, and later, the pandemic, severely delaying recovery efforts
Pastor Mills pointed to the place where one of the church’s historic buildings had once stood, explaining how it been completely destroyed
'We had three buildings on this property that survived many, many hurricanes going back to hurricane Betsy of 1965, Hurricane Floyd of 1999,' he said ahead of the royals’ arrival'
'But the facility was no match for hurricane Dorian. It was a Category Five monster storm that had waves crashing the roof of this building. The water was very much up to the ceiling in here'
'It washed everything out and it just destroyed so much history that was here. The building that was here was built in 1952. It was a wooden building built out of Abaco pine, and we kept it here and remodelled it to maintain its historic values, but Dorian swept it off its foundation'

'Take a closer look at the fabric of Alessandra Rich's midi dress and you'll see how detailed it is - the silk-jacquard is finely woven with polka-dots and printed with delicate roses in tonal-yellow hues. It has an '80s-inspired silhouette with a bow-detailed ruffled collar, puffed sleeves and a pleated peplum at the waist. The crystal-embellished buckle and faux pearl buttons are a nod to the decade's glamorous excess.'

1983年、22歳際の、初海外ツアーの時のドレス
似てる?と言われたり

The silk-jacquard gown was strikingly similar to a Jan Van Velden piece worn by Diana during her visit to Alice Springs School on her 1983 tour of Australia with Prince Charles
In March 1983, the newlywed royal couple and baby Prince William visited Australia's Northern Territory in the Princess of Wales' first overseas tour and first-ever trip abroad at the age of 22
Foreign tours are an opportunity to reflect. You learn so much. What is on the minds of Prime Ministers. The hopes and ambitions of school children. The day-to-day challenges faced by families and communities.
I know that this tour has brought into even sharper focus questions about the past and the future. In Belize, Jamaica and The Bahamas, that future is for the people to decide upon. But we have thoroughly enjoyed spending time with communities in all three countries, understanding more about the issues that matter most to them.
Catherine and I are committed to service. For us that's not telling people what to do. It is about serving and supporting them in whatever way they think best, by using the platform we are lucky to have.
It is why tours such as this reaffirm our desire to serve the people of the Commonwealth and to listen to communities around the world. Who the Commonwealth chooses to lead its family in the future isn't what is on my mind. What matters to us is the potential the Commonwealth family has to create a better future for the people who form it, and our commitment to serve and support as best we can.
'In a highly unusual move, Kensington Palace issued some words from the Duke of Cambridge as he and Kate flew back from The Bahamas – the last of the three countries they have visited this week on a tour which has raised questions about their relevance in 2022.
It’s been the first big tour since the pandemic and the Black Lives Matter protests after which many communities have been looking anew at the wrongs of the past and their impact on the present.
This visit to three Commonwealth Realms - former colonies which gained independence but kept The Queen as Sovereign – was to celebrate the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee. Consequently, the programme often appeared to be looking back when it could have been looking forward.'
