About My Family

I am originally from Cap-Haïtien, which is the northern part of Haiti. We moved to Atlanta, Ga., in the summer of 2023 to plant Renaissance Tabernacle Church. I was born and raised in a religious family. I thought I was saved because I was born into a religious family, until I met a Gideon who explained to me the plan of salvation. I was 11 years old when I was saved and baptized at 17.

Thirteen years later on May 22, 1998, after I finished my bachelor’s degree in theology at the Christian University of North Haiti, Jesus called me to be the senior pastor of Romeo Baptist Church in Haiti. I have worked at this church as senior pastor for 10 years. I left this church to come to the USA to follow my studies.

I met my wife in high school and got married when she was in college. We have six children (five girls and one boy).

About My Church Plant

God called me into the ministry when I was 24 years old. After I got my degree at Landmark Baptist College, I moved to Las Vegas, Nev., to help the Haitian community there. In 2023, I met pastor James at the Renaissance Church where I served the Lord faithfully. Renaissance Church became my sending church months later.

Since 2019, I have been praying to God for two things—a mother church and in which direction I should head to plant a church. He answered my prayers first with the location of Georgia and second with Renaissance Church located in Las Vegas, whom I thank for their support and their acceptance with opens arms.

NAMB Church Planting

Demonstrated Christian character is essential for missionaries and chaplains to gain credibility and build community. A missionary is a person who, in response to God's call and gifting, leaves his or her comfort zone and crosses cultural, geographic or other barriers to proclaim the gospel and live out a Christian witness in obedience to the Great Commission. The North American Mission Board supports missionaries serving across the United States, Canada and their territories. Churches are the missionary incubators and sending centers for missionaries through the Southern Baptist Convention. Missionaries serve in a variety of settings and face tremendous challenges. But the rewards are tremendous and life-changing. Missionaries have the privilege to represent their church and their Father in sharing the gospel as the primary focus of their activity. If you are interested in pursuing next steps as a potential missionary or chaplain from your church, explore the possibilities at namb.net/send-me.

Pray

Pray Renaissance Tabernacle Church (RTC) will be a church culture that pleases God spiritually, physically, culturally and vocationally. Also, pray RTC will be a kingdom-minded church. We want to be a church where people feel loved, valued and engaged. Finally, we want a church that loves God, loves people and the community.

Participate

I go outside and evangelize. I share my vision with the people in the community. Come join me.
Many missionaries build a team to join their ministry in prayer, participation, and provision. These friends, family and churches support missionaries beyond the tithes and offerings given within the church plant.
