Resolution of Respect
In Loving Memory of
Bishop JT Wilkins JR

Though your days on the earth were too brief and the grief at your loss is deep, we draw comfort from the knowledge that you are in the hands of the Lord where there is neither darkness nor pain.
Whereas, Bishop Wilkins JR passed from this life on August 29, 2024.
Now, therefore, be it resolved that we take comfort from the Word of God:

Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid. St. John 14:27

Therefore, be it further resolved that we bow to a greater Will than our own and rest in the knowledge that there is no hurt that God cannot heal.

Humbly submitted,
Bishop Leroy Lane
Rhema Word Ministry - Benton Harbor, Michigan

One of many of my favorite memories with my Dad; I went to buy my truck and my dad and mom left for 4 hours. When they came back I´m like ugh I gotta tell you something. My dad looked and said what you do ? I´m like I can show you.. long story short I bought a lemon and my dad was like girl you don´t do this on your own you have a daddy.. then he got to trying to fix it after realizing how much work needed. He helped me sell it. It touched me how he made sure I remembered he is here for me and my babies.. That's my Daddy & my babies Papa.. We will never forget all the talks, lessons, fun time we enjoyed together.. See you later Daddy, we love you
