Abstract

In this article, attention is given to the key role that Pentecostal faith plays in the cultural identity reconstruction process of some Jamaican Canadian immigrant women. For many immigrant groups, religious faith represents an anchor of hope for coping with post-migration life stressors. Although, once emotionally caged in a new socio-cultural location in Canada, the women portrayed in this summary of my research demonstrate great fortitude and endurance in navigating a new cultural and socio-historical context. Their untold stories of resilience through religious faith led them to deeper critical awareness, scholarly accountability, and recognition of their truths.
