The youngest of four sons, Thomas Haggai was born in 1931 in Kalamazoo, Michigan, to a Syrian/Lebanese father and a mother whose forebears arrived in Maine in the 1660s. Haggai's father was a Baptist minister and seminary teacher who brought home $14 a week during Haggai's early years. At the age of 12, Haggai was stricken with a life-threatening illness. When he realized he was going to live, he began his service to God and preached his first sermon in Boston, where he spent most of his childhood. - See more at: http://www.horatioalger.org/members_info.cfm?memberid=hag80#sthash.MmfJiO76.dpuf
