Jamil Gaston

Bringing Joy Through Praise & Worship - Jamil Gaston's Gospel Music Ministry

Jamil Gaston began playing the piano during his elementary school years, taking sporadic lessons as his parents could afford them. By the time he reached high school, he was organizing small singing groups in his community and writing and producing music. In his twenties, he took a break to complete business school and start a family, becoming the father of three girls: Layla, Janel, and Skylar.

 

Jamil experienced several traumatic events in his thirties, including the loss of his grandmother, father, mother, and first marriage. Following his grandmother's passing in 2014, Jamil decided to honor her by playing at her funeral. This experience prompted him to start his music ministry, and he began organizing and participating in youth church as a youth minister.

 

Jamil's work with the youth choir reignited his passion for music, and he encouraged many youth church members and their friends to join the choir. He taught them to sing and play the piano. However, Jamil faced a series of personal setbacks, including the loss of his father, the breakdown of his marriage, and the passing of his mother. Just as he was trying to get back on his feet, the COVID pandemic hit, disrupting his plans.

 

Undeterred, Jamil decided to continue his musical journey with the youth and started his own inspirational music group called "The Chosen 5." During the pandemic, he searched for a new church home and documented his journey in some of the videos on this page. In 2022, Jamil remarried and welcomed his fourth child, a son named Jeremiah, on December 25th of that year.

 

Currently, Jamil serves as the Minister of Music at Deliverance Temple, a position he has held since 2023.
