Father Trevor Nathasingh was called to conversion, from a Hindu/Muslim background, over 30 years ago. Fr. Trevor Nathasingh joined the Catholic Church and was ordained to the Holy Priesthood on June 18th, 1989 for the Archdiocese of Port of Spain. Fr. Trevor, as he is fondly called, currently serves as the Parish Priest of The Laventille/Morvant Pastoral Area, in the North West of Trinidad. The seeds planted during his period of conversion as a covenanted member of a Lay Charismatic Community and his years in the Seminary have begun to bear fruit. Fr. Trevor’s charism of teaching and preaching throughout his home country of Trinidad, the Caribbean Islands, North and South America, Africa and the United Kingdom at crusades, missions, revivals and Life in the Spirit Seminars have made him one of the most outstanding Caribbean Catholic Evangelists.
Fr. Trevor remains committed to the growth of the Catholic Charismatic Renewal, for the building up of the people of God. Fr. Trevor continues to
dedicate himself to a life of service in order “to proclaim without compromise the action of the Holy Spirit at work in the Church today.”
