As we close out the old year or as the Old Year comes to an end we are to lift up our heads and look up for our redemption draweth nigh. 1. Let us remember those that have laboured with us and have been called home from works to reward. 2. Let us continue to lift up our clergy, brothers and sisters in the Lord and pray the Lord to continues to pour out His blessings on His children. 3. Remember the Homeland of St. Vincent and the Grenadines where the citizens are under the threat of the volcano.

James Johnson, a young minister of the popular Church of God of Prophecy at 41 Old Harbour Road in St Catherine was gunned down yesterday evening while teaching a class at the church.

According to the police’s Corporate Communication Unit, Johnson, a 29-year-old pastor from Union Estate in the parish, was reportedly in the middle of teaching a class about 5:00 pm when a lone gunman entered and shot him several times.

There is an outpouring of grief on social media for Pastor Johnson who was the only son of his mother.

I write on behalf of the church of THE MYSTICAL ORDER OF SPIRITUAL BAPTIST registered in New York to condemn the brutal killing of this young man of God. A life cut short too soon but God knows best. We grieve and mourn together as the body of Christ and I pray that His soul finds rest in the arms of Jesus. Paul admonishes us that to be absent from this body is to be present with the Lord 2 Corinthians 5:8.

My Patriarch and Chief Apostle, Clergy and members join with me in sending condolences to his mother and the church family of the late Pastor James Johnson. I pray that you find strength in these times of your grief and mourning.
