The first son of Bishop Dag Heward-Mills, the founder and presiding Bishop of the Lighthouse Group of Churches (UD-OLGC) formerly known as Lighthouse Chapel International,  has passed away.

Dr. David Heward-Mills died in the United States at the age of 31 after a short illness.

David worked as a resident physician at Prisma Health, Columbia in the United States of America, for almost two years.He was a Research Physician at Shriners Hospitals for Children in Galveston.

His death was announced in a circular issued to members of the church.

“It is with deep regret and great sorrow that we announce the sudden passing away of David Heward-Mills, after a short illness. David was the first son of our Founder and Presiding Bishop.”

“We, also as a church, are heartbroken, however, we stand with our leader and his family and believe that God will comfort and see us through this very difficult season.”

“Please respect their privacy during this difficult time. Funeral arrangements will be communicated in due course,” the communication to church members read.

 It is heartbreaking he is no more but what then shall we say,that the Lord is to be cursed certainly not! Rather let's support the family in prayer.
