The Garilus Family is a group of passionate individuals who have dedicated their lives to serving God and advancing His kingdom. Their journey began with a life-altering event—the devastating earthquake that struck Haiti on January 12, 2010. Despite surviving this tragedy, they saw it as a wake-up call, a divine intervention that set them on a new path.
Motivated by their faith and the desire to make a positive impact, the Garilus Family made the bold decision to move to the United States. In their new homeland, they continued to nurture and develop their gifts and talents, ultimately using them as powerful tools to lead others to God. Through their ministry, they found themselves ministering at different churches, spreading the love of Christ, and sharing their musical talents with congregations.
Over the years, the Garilus Family’s dedication and commitment to serving God became evident as they achieved remarkable milestones. They participated in and won numerous talent shows, captivating audiences with their God-given talents and inspiring performances. Their annual concerts became a highly anticipated event, serving as a platform for worship and celebration within their community.
However, in 2020, the world faced an unprecedented challenge—the COVID-19 pandemic. Undeterred by the limitations imposed by the global crisis, the Garilus Family turned adversity into an opportunity to help others in need. During this time, they launched the Revival Project, a heartfelt initiative aimed at assisting young people in reconnecting with their faith and finding their way back to God amidst the chaos and uncertainty of the pandemic. Their unwavering commitment, resilience, and passion for God continues to impact lives, inspiring people of all ages to draw closer to Him.
Join the Garilus Family on their journey of faith, as they strive to bring revival, restoration, and joy to the lives of individuals and communities through their ministry.
Contemporary reggae and gospel recording artist Jeniel Henningham, who is known for her powerful vocals and inspirational messages, will be in Jamaica from December 12th through to the 27th. On what is being described as a working vacation, the Massachusetts-based singer will continue to promote her latest single – Journey – released at the end of September via Pandemic Records & Entertainment LLC, while simultaneously readying a new project for 2024.
Journey is an inspiring afrobeat track that’s fused with modern dancehall. On the record, Jeniel passionately sings: “when you go through fire, when you go through flood, God will carry you through, don’t give up.” When asked what she would like listeners to take away from Journey, Henningham said the following: “Don’t give up on yourself. No matter how hard life seems, there is a season for everything, and the reaping season will come.”
