Converted On LSD Trip

Thirty years after the author’s confession to the Police and conversion to Christianity, he got news of his older brother, Michael John Clarke’s arrest and prison sentence in the Philippines. After 5 years of his 16 year sentence Michael too was convinced that Jesus was the Christ the Son of the living God, and he too became a Christian. It was then in September 1999, David decided to go on a mission of help to the Philippines. This was to bring help and relief to his brother. This part of the story was reported as news by Portsmouth News. Their story was also reported in The Oldham Chronicle, the town where the brothers were born.David visited Michael in New Bilibid Prison, for the first time, in 2001. This prison being the National Penitentiary and Maximum Security Prison, in Asia’s Far East.. He visited Michael several times over the next four years and the two brothers worked together within the prison with Religious Volunteers, and many prison inmates, seeking to help former criminals in their own stages of rehabilitation.The brother’s vision was to equip former converted criminals to Christianity to return to their own villages, towns or Cities and preach the gospel to their own friends and relatives.The first inmate to be released with this commission was William Ola Poloc who was released in August 2002, after serving 14 years for homicide. Many other prison inmates testified, in their own handwritten accounts, their own stories of reformation, which David writes about in their book, Trojan Warriors, that contains 66 testimonies of converted criminals in New Bilibid Prison to Christianity.But Sadly, Michael died of Tuberculosis in New Bilibid Prison before their vision of bringing help to many had been realized. Michael’s story was reported in the Eastbourne Herald, on 27th September 2012.Since August 2002, William Poloc, the first of these prisoner to be released, has worked in Baguio City Jail and Benguet District Jails, working with inmates and former criminals, and founded several church groups, called Christ-Centered Churches, and a Theological Institute. David the author writes this story with a view to help many.
