AndrewM Posted April 25, 2001 Share Posted April 25, 2001 Sharon Riley went to Toronto Junior Academy in the 1970's.

I read that after a car accident she made a spiritual recommitment. I saw her about two weeks ago in Hunstville, AL for a concert at Madison Mission SDA and she was really good. She was definitely on fire for Christ. I noticed she does walk with a cane because of a limp she has, I thought it was just genetic, I did not know it was because of an accident. Praise to God tgat he allowed he another chance she is doing a wonderful work with her music ministry. ------------------Psalms 34:7-9 The angel of the LORD encampeth round about them that fear him, and delivereth them.
