In September of 1973 I traveled to our sister island, St. Kitts to fulfill a contract to construct a family home. In October of that same year, I was invited to a week of crusade meetings. Being new to St. Kitts, I wanted to meet some Kittitian ladies so I decided to go.


I went and I really did meet a lady. She told me about Jesus, and as she shared Jesus with me, the rich presence of God was there. I tried to tell her wait until tomorrow, but she kept on talking. I tried to move away from her, but I could not move. It seemed like the Holy Spirit had me stuck to the spot. That night I gave my life to Jesus.


My life was never the same from that night. I started attending church, and faithfully following the Lord. I was passionate about God and started growing in the things of the Lord. Early on I realized that I had a call to ministry. I attended Bible training for over a year. I served in the church as a Sunday school teacher, elder, lay preacher, and youth leader eventually becoming the Sunday school superintendent.
I attended World Impact Bible Institute for two years and graduated with a Diploma in Christian Ministry. I am presently preparing myself to spend the rest of my life in ministry as a full time evangelist and author.
