Meet The Pastors

Sam Chapman, PhD, DrPH accepted the call to gospel ministry, and considers this vocation a blessing for over two decades. He worked as a teacher and principal in the Adventist education system; as health educator and administrator in city and state government; as forensic technician, counselor and supervisor in psychiatric hospital and private settings; and as adjunct professor of public health education and administration at colleges in the United States.

 

Yet, throughout the years, his passion has always been ministry. Pastor Sam seems forever engaged in gospel ministry and he cherishes being a servant leader. He is always there for the people. He raised up and assisted others in establishing churches that are “beacons of light” in their respective communities and countries. In Trinidad and Tobago, the United States, Medellin, Colombia, and as far east as the Philippines, he has helped hundreds resolve conflicts, solve problems, build their self-esteem and accept Jesus as ”the Way, the Truth and the Life.”

 

He is an ordained Seventh-Day Adventist minister who gladly serves in this self-supporting ministry. He is licensed and registered to conduct weddings, and he performs funerals and baby dedications as well. He gladly serves all parishioners, people in the community and whoever may need his services. He is happily married and has three adult children.

Called to gospel ministry, Pastor Darius John studied Theology at the University of the Southern Caribbean, where he graduated with a Bachelor of Arts degree in 1995. He served the South Caribbean Conference of Seventh-day Adventists as a minister of religion before migrating to the United States.

​

Pastor Darius takes delight in preaching and teaching the word of God. He finds life's greatest satisfaction in receiving from the Lord and transmitting the same to the people of God.

To better serve humanity, Pastor Darius embarked on a field of study in natural health with the aim of being fully equipped to educate the people of God on the prevention and cure of disease. He became a Certified Natural Health Professional (CNHP) in 2006. In 2017 he completed his studies and graduated as a Naturopathic Doctor of Original Medicine (NDOM).

Pastor Darius believes that the health message is an integral part of the gospel ministry and should never be neglected, as together they adequately satisfy the physical, mental, and spiritual needs of man.
