Ron and Trina Alleyne

Ron and Trina Alleyne have been married for 17 years and live in the Atlanta metro area with their 6 beautiful children.

Ron is a medical doctor serving as the director for Wellstar’s Center for Best Health in Atlanta. He grew up in Trinidad and Tobago and moved to the US at the age of 18. He had some exposure to the Gospel at a young age, but didn’t surrender to Jesus Christ until after college graduation.

As a stay-at-home mom, Trina has focused much of her time on raising and schooling her kids. The Lord saved her at the age of 25 and helped her escape a downward spiral of sin. She has a deep passion for fashion and design. After getting a degree in fashion design and marketing, she worked for Russell Athletic. She also has a degree in Christian Ministry from The Master’s University, teaches Bible studies for women and children, writes devotionals (Jesse Tree and Hope Tree), blogs, and sermon notebooks, and has taught teenagers about fashion from a biblical worldview (Fashioned for Christ).

Together, Ron and Trina serve their church and community and have a strong desire to help families grow in the grace of Christ.
