It was a very ‘different’ night for the organizers and supporters the Jesus Party on Friday September 29 at Scotia Link to celebrate the events 2nd anniversary and to launch YOW 4.
The well publicized and highly anticipated Jesus Party was positioned to be the biggest ever, it was slightly dampened however, as a result of police orders to cancel the show.
When FiwiVoice.com first heard Bring Down (the debut album from Koen Duncan), the conclusion was quickly, that Koen Duncan is a Gospel Reggae Minister that simply Must be Heard, and Followed! Though his music speaks for itself- our love for this profound Trinidadian Lyricist only increased when we learned that Koen is member of the FlowMasters clan, and colleague of Sherwin Gardener.
Fiwivoice.com interviewed Koen after a powerful ministry at St. Andrew’s High School for girls in Kingston Jamaica. He was ministering with a contingent of other youth - to youth on the Extreme Impact Jamaican School tour.
He has shared with us on his conversion, his Vision and his Ministry.
Luke Kuamina, is a truly exemplary yute. Fiwivoice.com was determined to interview him, after hearing his testimony, and hearing of his work on the Extreme Impact Jamaican School Tour. This Trinidadian young man, is a powerful speaker and singer. He grew up in the church in a christian family, and finally decided to serve Christ at 16yrs old. This is Luke Kuamina.
Meet Kevin Downswell. I was raised on Maxfield Avenue, Waterhouse and Central Village. I’ve been at the worst but here is God taking the worst and exalting it, taking the humble and exalting it. My message is my life, you can never be too low for God, you can be never too low for God! You can never be too poor for God and you can never do too much that God can stop loving you.
Kevin has been in gospel music for about 10 to 13 years and has been on fire for the Lord singing and ministering all over the world. He is well know for hit songs like Stand & Evil doers.
Jason Mighty is a wonderful singing sensation. With his unique sing jay and DJ vibe Jason has carved out a niche for himself in the fast rising and increasingly popular gospel-reggae market.

Kemar Gallimore started performing professionally in 1998, a year after he was converted at a bible study. Gallimore, was convicted after realizing it would be futile ‘to gain the whole world and lose his soul’, and so he accepted Christ in his life. Living in ‘Rema’, in Trench Town Gallimore was greatly influenced by the Rastafarian movement, made strong in his community through the influence of Bob Marley. Today, Galimore is a bonafide Gospel sensation. This is Kemar’s Story on gospel reggae, homosexuality, the music business, his career and his ministry.
“Fire BUNN FI CHI-CHI MAN!!!- Because the bible says…”
How often does this line echo across Jamaica? How often is this used as justification for hate, murder, malice and antagonism towards a group of people who the Bible also says, we are all just as sinful as.
“All have sinned and come short of the glory of God,” and in the first verse of Romans 2 after Paul just describing the repugnance, disgust and anger of God towards sins like homosexuality, he argued that ‘none of us has right to condemn anyone, for at that moment we are condemning ourselves who are just as wicked and sinful.
