Just as the tragic terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001 radically transformed life as we knew it in the United States and throughout the world, the day’s events suddenly and unexpectedly became a life-changing catalyst for Sujo John, a young immigrant to the United States from Calcutta, India, who was thrust into the public eye and ultimately launched on an international ministry. Sujo and his wife Mary had moved from India seeking adventure and prosperity in the United States just six months prior to the terrorist attacks on the two World Trade Towers in New York City. Sujo worked on the 81st floor of Tower 1, and his wife Mary worked in Tower 2. By the grace of God, they both survived to tell of their accounts of the horrific events of that day.
News media from all over the world quickly took an interest in their story, and Sujo has appeared on the BBC, The 700 Club, Billy Graham Special, TBN, and the CBC and been featured in articles appearing in the Associated Press, The New York Times, The Times-London, The National Post and countless other international publications. As a result of that attention, speaking interests also poured in worldwide, interests which have now taken him to over 400 major cities and most continents of the world.
In those early days following the terrorist attacks, Sujo felt God increasingly burdening him to tell his story and use it to introduce people around the world to Jesus Christ. As he has shared his family’s story of hope and faith, Sujo presents Christianity not as a religion but as a relationship with your Creator who has a better plan for your life. In powerfully and passionately communicating that message, he challenges his audiences to begin that relationship now. So, what started with invitations to share his and his wife's miraculous deliverance on September 11, 2001 has birthed an international ministry (Sujo John Ministries) that has touched hundreds of thousands of people in many nations. In addition to addressing thousands of people in stadiums and large venues around the world, Sujo regularly speaks in churches, universities, public schools, corporations, and at sporting and community events in the United States and North America.
Sujo John earned his Bachelor’s Degree in Commerce and a Masters Degree in Business Administration and now lives with his wife Mary and their children Jeremy and Sophia in the Dallas, Texas area.
