On Wednesday, April 1, 2009, Commissioner Sarah Wescot-Williams received a signed copy of the book: "From the trash can to the dinning table" by Pastor Elston A. Thomas, who launched his book at the Family Bookstore in Philipsburg.
Pastor Thomas welcomed Commissioner Wescot-Williams to the signing and said that it was a pleasure for her to be here at the launch. He then proceeded to sign a copy of his book and presented it to the commissioner, adding that he feels very blessed for being here.
The author of the book, Pastor Thomas, who is of the Tabernacle Ministries in Aruba, is about my life story, which is mainly about my plight out of the drug life and into the realm of God.
Commissioner Wescot-Williams was pleased to be there and extended a warm thank you to Pastor Thomas for inviting her and wishes him the best with his book launch. Commissioner added that his life story was a very inspiring one. "Young People can take heed from your story. It shows that regardless of where you were, one can arise from whatever situation. I wish you the best, and I wish you success on the initiation of your book. You are an encouragement to all. I want to congratulate you." The book is available in Dutch, Papiamento, and English.
