AndrewM Posted April 25, 2001 Posted April 25, 2001 Sharon Riley went to Toronto Junior Academy in the 1970's. I recognize her name because she used to sing at a lot of our school's talent shows and banquets. She was a couple grades below me when I attended.<P>Sharon's talent was quite evident then. I read that after a car accident she made a spiritual recommitment. <P>------------------<BR>Be glad in all that God has planned for you, be patient in trouble and always be prayerful.

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.
