 Rev. David Wilkerson, founder of Teen Challenge and founding pastor of Times Square Church in New York City and author of the best-selling book, "The Cross and the Switchblade," has died. He was 79 (May 19th 1931 - April 27, 2011).
David died Wednesday afternoon in a car accident in East Texas, Texas Department of Public Safety spokeswoman Tela Mange said. Wilkerson's car smashed head-on into a tractor-trailer rig after veering into oncoming traffic on U.S. 175 west of Cuney, about 95 miles southeast of Dallas, Mange said.
Wilkerson founded the non-denominational Protestant Times Square Church in 1987 in an area of Manhattan that was then riddled with X-rated movie houses, strip clubs, prostitution and drugs.
He also founded Teen Challenge, which uses a biblically based recovery program for drug addicts.
His family confirmed his death in a statement posted on the website for Wilkerson's World Challenge Inc. ministries, saying he "went to be with Jesus." |

Do you have some spare time? Would you like to make a difference in your city? Then have you thought about volunteering some of your time, skills, etc on the Teen Challenge Bus... for more get in touch. If meeting people, youth is not your thing - then there are many others opportunities and things that you can help with for example - donate or fundraise (maybe organise an event), support the teams, prayer, there are many opportunities to help and make a difference in Newport. |
