Since his early age, Rev. Coicou was passionate about theology and became a Minister after graduation from a Theological Seminary in Haiti. He and his father Rev. Christian Coicou worked together in Haiti to spread the Good News of the Gospel of Jesus Christ throughout the country, building churches and schools to educate people of all ages, planting the seeds for alphabetization in some of the remote villages. He migrated to the US four decades ago and continued to work in the Ministry especially in the Boston MA area where he pastored a few churches until his retirement a few years ago.
Rev. Coicou was well-known in the community as a good Samaritan, and it is very sad to see him go. The last message he left for his family and friends is: "STAND UP FOR JESUS".
