Global Christian philanthropist Pastor Joe Persaud will headline a major leadership summit at Talk of the Town, Jamaica Pegasus, this weekend.
The conference, which will bring together Christian leaders in all sectors of society, expects to energise Christian ministries and outreach across all spheres of society.
Pastor Persaud, who heads Liberty Bible Fellowship in New York, brings a wide range of financial, developmental, and ministry experience to the gathering.

The ministry has also launched and maintained microfinancing projects in Haiti, Nigeria, and India. Most recently, he helped rebuild a hospital in Haiti. His ministry also bought and delivered cows for several vulnerable families in India as a business start-up to break the cycle of poverty. Through his ministry, Pastor Persaud is currently financing the digging of wells in various villages in India to provide drinking water for several communities.
The various arms of Liberty are supported by the Persaud family and business enterprises, the congregations, and several teams across the world.
