Pastor Webster became a member of the Seventh-day Adventist Church during an evangelistic series conducted by Pastor Hesketh Matthew on Anguilla in July 2004.

From a very tender age Pastor Webster’s desire was to become a lawyer. Nevertheless, after becoming a Seventh-day Adventist Christian, he felt God’s calling upon his life and as a result, he decided that he would become a minister of the Gospel. In 2009, he attended the University of the Southern Caribbean in Trinidad and culminated in 2013 with a Bachelor of Arts in theology. Furthermore, on Sept 1, 2013, Pastor Webster, joined the ministerial fraternity of the North Caribbean Conference of Seventh-day Adventists. In 2020, he is completed a Master of Arts in Pastor Theology with an emphasis in leadership and administration from the InterAmerican Division Theological Seminary. In August 2021, he was ordained as a minister of the Seventh-day Adventist in Church. At the 14th quadrennial session of the North Caribbean Conference, he was elected to serve as the Youth, Chaplaincy, Public Campus Ministries and Communicator Director. Pastor Webster is a powerful pastor, poetic preacher, vibrant leader, and faithful father. He believes that the task ahead of him is not as great as the force behind him- Christ Jesus.
