Chavannes Jeune

About Me

Name: Secrétaire aux Relations Publiques

Location: Haiti

At age nine, when most American kids would be playing Little League for the first time or learning long division, Chavannes Jeune was preaching his first public sermon at an open-air outreach. Born in Haiti on December 29, 1953, Pastor Chavannes grew up in a evangelistic household; his father was a pioneer of the Mission Evangelique Baptiste du Sud d'Haiti (MEBSH). During a Vacation Bible School at age seven Chavannes made his own personal commitment to Christ, followed by baptism at fourteen. Although Chavannes graduated with a degree as a civil engineer, he knew his real mission in life lay not in building an earthly city, but in furthering a Heavenly Kingdom. Since preaching his first sermon (22 people were saved as a result!) Pastor Chavannes realized that "God had a clear purpose for my life to be his mouthpiece." And so he went to universities in Washington State, South Carolina, and Chicago, where he completed studies in a broad range of subjects including Missiology, Christian Education, Public Administration, Spiritual Counseling, and Communications.
