TRINIDADIAN RC priest Collin Jackson has vowed not to abandon his flock in St Vincent, even in the face of the threat of La Soufriere volcano, which continues to erupt and cause devastation throughout the island.
Jackson, born in Sangre Grande, has been in St Vincent for almost two years and is now in charge of the St John the Evangelist Parish in Mesopotamia, in the southeast of the island. He was ordained a priest last August.
