“I was born in Goa, India, and raised in a traditional church. My father passed away when I was just two years old, leaving my mother to care for my newborn sister and me. In 1982, she moved to Kuwait to work and provide for the family, and my grandmother lovingly raised us. During my childhood, I developed a deep passion for football. It became my everything. I played for a first-division team in Goa, earning a small salary, and dreamed of becoming a professional football player for India. Football was my goal, my identity, and, for a time, my god.

In 1994, my mother called me to join her in Kuwait. Reluctant to leave my football dreams behind, I struggled with the decision, yet something nudged me to obey. Shortly after arriving, I found a job and continued playing football, quickly gaining recognition as a goal scorer. In February 1998, while attending a worship service at the National Evangelical Church in Kuwait, I encountered Jesus Christ in a life-changing way. During worship, I surrendered my life to Him. Later that year, at a retreat in India, I received the baptism of the Holy Spirit and a prophetic word:
“CRUZEDIO, as the shepherd gathers the sheep, so I am gathering you.”

Following this, I devoted myself to growing in the Word of God and ministry. I began volunteering at The Lighthouse Church Kuwait’s library, studying spiritual books and participating in courses that strengthened my faith and leadership. In 2002, God gave me a dream of preaching to multitudes. Though I was naturally reserved and not a confident speaker, I took the dream seriously and began preparing myself practicing in private and sharing the gospel with those around me.

In 2007, Bishop Tim Dailey and Senior Pastor Allan Dytianquin invited me to begin preaching formally under the mentorship of Pastor Mario Lapuz, serving faithfully for six years. In 2012, God directed me to the United Kingdom. By July 2014, through prayer, fasting, and guidance from God, I received a clear vision to start a church in London. On October 24, 2014, God confirmed it through a dream, and shortly thereafter, Life Connection Church London (LCMI) was established.

I was ordained as Pastor in 2016, and since then, God has faithfully led and provided for the church. What once was a passion for scoring goals has transformed into a passion for winning souls. Together with my wife, Pastor Elva, and our three sons Caelan, Clyde, and Cade, we serve the Lord at LCMI London, committed to seeing lives transformed and discipled in the knowledge and love of Jesus Christ.”
