Pastor Testimony:
Pastor Edma Guillaume was born and raised in a Voudoo family. God intervened in his life and saved him when he was 18, on July 7, 1989. Because of his decision to follow Christ, his parents made life very difficult for him. However, he says he never regrets the decision he made to follow Christ because God has always been faithful to him. Pastor Edma has been involved in ministry since his conversion to Christianity as a teenager. He started as an evangelist, a preacher, and a missionary before officially becoming a pastor in 2006. That same year, he married his wife, Farah Pierre Guillaume. They now have two beautiful children. The Lord called Pastor Edma to start MEBSH de Merger in 2015, and has been pastoring there ever since. He gives all the glory to God!
Meet the church:
Eglise MEBSH de Merger
MEBSH Merger began in September 2012, as a prayer meeting for members of MEBSH Cote-Plage. Members got together in a backyard of a private house located in the city of Merger, and after several meetings and crusades in that community, the prayer group grew and the leaders of MEBSH Cote-Plage decided to officially start Eglise MEBSH de Merger with Pastor Edma Guillaume in September 2014. In that same backyard as before, a PPM team came and helped build a temporary sanctuary which still is the place the church is meeting every Sunday with 150 members plus children and youth! God has provided so that they could partly pay for a property in the same community to build the official sanctuary upon. With the help of a PPM team, the church already started working on that property to put the foundation for the new building and truly believe in the faithfulness of God is so evident in their story. Their vision is to develop a ministry that will help the people of Merger in every way possible: spiritually, educationally, socially, economically, and medically. "We believe in one God in three distinct persons: God the Father, God the Son, God the Holy Spirit. We believe in baptism in water. We believe in he rise of the church to Heaven before the great Tribulation. We believe salvation through faith in Jesus Christ. We celebrate the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ."
