Jimmy Petrousse was born in Beirut, Lebanon in 1978. At the age
of five, his parents sent him and his twin brother (Bobby) to
the Seychelles Islands, in the care of their maternal
grandparents. After graduating from high school, and completing
two years of post-secondary education (emphasis on science),
Jimmy worked as a high school math and science substitute
teacher. In the year 2000, Jimmy traveled to the United States
to continue his education. He graduated from Florida College in
2004 with a Bachelor’s degree in Biblical Studies. Jimmy met his
wife Tabitha while attending Florida College was married in the
summer of 2005.

Jimmy was taught the gospel by an American preacher named,
Robert Smith and was baptized into Christ in 1994 at the age of
sixteen. Soon after his conversion, Jimmy decided He wanted to
spend his life working as an evangelist, especially with the
people of Seychelles. However, due to his wife’s health
complications, Jimmy and Tabitha have remained in the States, so
Tabitha could receive the necessary treatments that she needed.
Jimmy and Tabitha have set a goal is to move to the Seychelles
as soon as possible. They both hope that sometimes in the year
2008, if the Lord wills, they will be able to be in Seychelles,
and participate in the Lord’s work there.
In the meantime, Jimmy currently preaches for the congregation
that meets at the Zephyrhills Church of Christ, in Zephyrhills
Florida. Jimmy has been working with this congregation in
Zephyrhills since August 2005.
