Rev. Bethel Ransom knew his ABCs: Always Brought Christianity to the forefront of any given chat--whether at Faith and Worship Ministries, Inc. where he would serve in hymn/song service, tickle the ivories and ebonies on the keyboard, and say what thus saith The Lord...or at the courthouse circle with fresh produce and spiritual fruit that would remain (for all the fruit inspectors he might encounter....) When my younger-only brother, Rev. Albert Bivens Jr. died suddenly on Monday, June 8, 2020, Rev. Ransom comforted me with The Word of God. May the family find solace from God's Holy Word as we pray we'll all be ready for God's expected, but unannounced return, in Jesus!!!

It is a shock to hear of Rev Ransom leaving us behind. He was a quiet person with an humble spirit. Surely he will be missed by you and many others who know him! Turn your burdens over to Jesus and He will help you to bare this burden.
