About My Family
My wife, Gina-Lou, and I met on the mission field at an orphanage in Haiti in 2015—a foundation that continues to shape our lives today. We are both proud Americans of Haitian descent who speak Crenglish (a casual mix of Haitian Creole and English) in our home.
God has blessed us with three beautiful children—NaNou (6), Zachi (3), and Gracie (18 months). Above all, we are dedicated to raising them to know and love Jesus and to find joy in serving the church. When we aren’t at home playing in our yard, you can usually find us playing soccer, exploring the local library, or enjoying the beauty of nature together as a family.

About My Ministry
Ministry starts at home, with my wife and kids; it manifests itself in how we seek to walk in obedience to the Lord, in our family devotionals, and in how we apply Scripture to our daily lives. Every spiritual habit we attempt to form is by the power of the Holy Spirit and for the glory of God. Outside my home, I serve as a deacon in my church; most of my service involves caring for our widows and the needy. I also take advantage of preaching opportunities that are offered to me by our local churches and the campus pastor at our local university.
Finally, I am able to minister through my work as a hospice chaplain and an Army Reserve Chaplain. I look for opportunities to offer comfort, support, and to share the gospel of Christ!

SBC Chaplaincy
Chaplaincy is a "frontline" ministry that is vital to the extension of the local church. Chaplains reach the lost among the thousands of men and women in the U.S. Armed Forces, correctional facilities, healthcare settings, public safety, disaster relief sites and corporate environments. SBC Chaplains care for the broken, offer hope to the hopeless, and advance the Gospel of Jesus Christ in hard to reach places. The qualifications expected of a Southern Baptist applying for endorsement as a chaplain or counselor are established by the using agency and the Chaplains Commission, SBC. These qualification requirements vary according to the type of chaplaincy or counseling ministry involved but all are expected to meet a high level of ministerial competence. A basic qualification from the Chaplains Commission, SBC, is that an applicant is a Southern Baptist who is a member in good standing with an SBC church. Additional qualification requirements may involve certain age limits, educational background, ministry experience, physical condition, financial and credit history, citizenship eligibility for a security clearance, certification by certain national organizations, and other qualifications specific to the Using Agency or Chaplains Commission, SBC.
