I thank the Lord Jesus Christ for calling me and saving me.

Hi my name is Lesley, and I am very fortunate to be able to tell my story.

I was a wild young man – always drinking and fighting. My father left when I was young so I didn’t have a father figure. One day, when I was in my teens, my sister received the Holy Spirit and I heard her speak in tongues…

By the time I was 15 I was drinking and partying every weekend. I had a child and was in an abusive relationship so asked God to get me out of it – and He did. But I still felt lost and started taking drugs. Then I met someone who talked about God as a friend…

Three years ago I found myself trapped in my own web of lies and deception. I was a compulsive gambler and nothing else had any true meaning for me. Gambling sucked everything away and I could think of nothing else.

I thought I would never be free from that dark cloud. But I was! The Lord healed me.

On the 25th of May 1996 I received the Holy Spirit, speaking in tongues. From that moment my life was transformed.
