Christian Testimony

Celeste Zugec became a Christian in 1980.

Through a 1980 appearance of Dan Peek (ex-America) on the 700 Club, and subsequent series on "prophesy" that Pat Robertson and Ben Kinchlow did, Celeste committed her life to a personal relationship with God. She had just left her job as Press and Publicity Manager for Capitol Records-EMI Canada, had lived through - an abusive marriage, the suicide death of her brother; alcohol and "drug abuse" and for nine years had been involved in the "white light" occult movement and was living with her now husband Chuck;. As an aspiring "medium and astrologer" Celeste says, "I never would have tuned in to one of those dreaded religious programs had I not seen Dan that day as he sang 'All Things Are Possible'".

Her training in public relations with a Toronto fashion magazine and Capitol Records prepared her to work with Christian missions like SCA International, Yonge Street Mission, where she helped create support material for the development & media departments as well as for field staff. She also began a speaking/singing ministry in Ontario prisons, and with Stonecroft Ministries/Christian Women's After 5, and Christian Business & Professional Women's clubs, traveling to cities in Canada and parts of the United States.

During the mid 1990's she traveled with Lonesome Dove, a country band that also played some gospel music. Unlike other lead singers that usually go backstage during intermission, I spent time getting to know the people around their tables. There are a lot of hurting people out there, and what they are really looking for is love the kind that only God can give. "I heard a lot of heartbreaking stories from moms that had lost their families because of their own addictions; men whose wives had left them for other men; still others who were so disappointed with, the church, (the place where everybody should have known their name) that they were sitting in a club, hoping for relationships like the ones idealized in the popular TV sitcom Cheers and the song, Where Everybody Knows Your Name.
