Sister Carter was the most caring, sweet person a preacher could have as a parishioner. What a delight it was to know her, have spiritual conversations with her, and hear her stories of the old days. I will miss her dearly, but I know heaven has gained a Saint! Cori and I send our love to Rickey, Glenda and all the family! We are holding you up in prayer and inviting Gods comforting presence to be yours. 🙏🙏🙏❤️"Pastor John
