Help Continue Their Impact
On November 10, 2025 our community received heartbreaking news. Evangelist Alexander Wurm (53) and his daughter Serena (22) passed away in a plane crash while transporting humanitarian aid to Jamaica. Their final moments reflected exactly how they lived, serving others with courage, compassion, and unwavering faith.
Alex travelled throughout the Caribbean and beyond, dedicating his life to sharing the gospel, strengthening local churches, and bringing hope to those in need. He was a man of deep prayer, humility, and extraordinary generosity. Whether as a husband, father, minister, counsellor, or friend, he carried a grace and wisdom that touched countless lives.
Serena shared her father’s heart. She was compassionate, thoughtful, and committed to helping others. She was already stepping into ministry and service, following the example she witnessed at home every day. Their final mission, bringing aid to those in need, was a true reflection of who they both were.
Alex leaves behind his wife Candace, and their children James (17) and Christiana (20), as well as a far reaching community of friends, youth, and leaders shaped by his ministry.
