Dominican reported missing at sea from Guadeloupe

Gideon Corriette has been reported missing at sea

A Dominican, who has according to reports has been in Guadeloupe for a few weeks, has been reported missing at sea.

He has been identified as Gideon Corriette.

Reports are that Corriette and two friends went out to sea from Guadeloupe on January 17, however, their boat began experiencing difficulties and started sinking.

A distress signal was sent out from the boat, which according to reports was south-west of the French island at the time.

The French Coast Guard responded but intensive searches have so far proved futile.

Sources in Guadeloupe told DNO that the search continues, however at least one relative said that it appears everyone has given up on finding the three men.

    I hope the two people he was with are honest ones.
    Hoping they will be found alive.
    Did they have life jackets?
    Only a few weeks in Guadeloupe. What did they go out to sea for?

      I join all who are praying for this young man and his family during his difficult time.

      This frightening experience reminds us of the risks and uncertainty of life. We should take a few minutes to think about being ready to meet the Lord whenever or however it happens. Belonging to a church and having religion is not enough. Jesus said *Ye must be born again.* (John 3:7) This means to trust Christ as your Savior by depending upon – and ONLY upon – what He did for you on the CROSS to put your sins away! Read Romans 5:6-8.

      Sincerely, Rev. Donald Hill. Evangelist.
