It is with great sorrow that we announce the passing of Dr Curtis Earthquake Kelley on May 6, 2024...

Today we honor the life of Dr. Curtis "Earthquake" Kelley, a man whose life story is a testament to the profound transformations that faith and love can bring about. Born in Stamford, Connecticut, Earthquake was the seventh of eleven children. His early years were marked by significant trials, including domestic violence and exposure to the dark arts of voodoo, obeah, and hoodoo through his father. Yet, it was these very challenges that shaped his future ministry and deep compassion.

Dr. Kelley's life was a journey from darkness to light, marked by a dramatic encounter with God after a near-death experience at the age of 15. This turning point led him to devote his life to the ministry, determined to bring hope and deliverance to those ensnared by spiritual and physical afflictions. His testimony and teachings, as shared in his books like "Bound to Lose, Destined to Win" and "Escaping the N'MOS Cycle," have touched countless lives, guiding many to spiritual freedom and healing.

Earthquake was not only a spiritual leader but also a beacon of resilience and hope. His legacy is not just in the words he preached but in the lives he touched, the people he delivered, and the unshakeable faith he exhibited in the face of adversity. He taught us that no matter our past, transformation is always possible through faith.

As we reflect on his life and mourn his passing, let us hold on to the lessons he imparted: to live with courage, to fight for redemption, and to always believe in the transformative power of God's love. Today, we say goodbye not just to a minister but to a father, a mentor, and a friend whose impact will continue to resonate through the ages.

We thank God for the life of Dr. Curtis "Earthquake" Kelley, a true warrior of faith. May he rest in peace, knowing that his work here has left an indelible mark on the world, and his spiritual legacy will endure in the lives of those he has touched.

The funeral is still to be determined, and will be held sometime near the end of May 2024
