Trevor releases the presence and power of God everywhere he goes through a strong prophetic and healing anointing. He and his wife Melanie have three children, Janelle, Sarah and Carter. Trevor serves as the Apostolic Initiatives Pastor of the Church at South Edmonton, an Apostolic Centre in Edmonton, AB. Canada.
