Not sure what to say?

I am so sad to just hear that Bishop Jackson passed! He was an incredible Pastor, who never gave up on his flock! We are truly losing someone who's heart is pure. I've been apart of St. John's church since I was in the second grade, and know that the entire congregation sends condolences to the family because we are all in morning!

Our Prayers and thoughts are with you and your family in this time of sorrow. Bishop Jackson will truly be missed. Praying that you will find comfort, strength, and peace in knowing that God will never put more on you than you can bear. Our Deepest Sympathy.

We at Greater Promise Baptist Church

I met Bishop Jackson back in the 90's when I joined St. Johns, but it feels like a lifetime. He married me & my 1st husband, baptised both my boys, prayed over my sick mother when she was unable to pray for herself and then when I asked him if he would prepared her eulogy, he kindly accepted without hesitation (even though my mother was not a member of his church). I will be forever grateful to God for bringing Bishop into my life! He will be missed!

Although my name is not mentioned as one of the children Bishop Jackson treated myself and my three children as though we were apart of the family and he will be greatly missed by all of us. Can't believe this is real he is gone!!!!
