I am Sashagaye Walker and This Is My Story

From Jamaican ghetto abuse to divine purpose and unbreakable faith

  • Biography

Born into the raw streets of Jones Town, Kingston, on August 26, 1986, Sashagaye Walker faced a life-threatening bacterial infection at age two that nearly claimed her. Yet God spared her for a purpose. Gunfire echoed through her childhood ghetto, balanced by joyful Sunday beach trips with her father. When her parents separated, she and her siblings were sent to rural Manchester, where aunts who should have nurtured them delivered cruelty instead—physical beatings, verbal torment, and sexual abuse starting at thirteen. School started late at seven, but Sashagaye's brilliance shone, skipping grades despite hunger and isolation. A worn yellow Bible and dreams of heaven became her anchors. The church offered refuge: choir, youth group, kitchen duties—places to belong amid pain. Baptized at fourteen, filled with the Holy Spirit, she cried out to God, questioning her suffering but never abandoning faith. This raw memoir reveals how abandonment forged resilience, abuse ignited a divine calling, and faith transformed a broken girl into a beacon of hope. I Am Sashagaye Walker and This Is My Story is a triumphant testimony for anyone who's survived the unimaginable.
