The family of SirVonn is accepting donations to assist with SirVonn’s burial expenses and to help support his mother so she can take the time she needs to grieve, begin to heal, and be present for her daughter without the added worry of financial obligations.

No contribution is too small, and every donation, prayer, and share is deeply appreciated by her and her family.

To donate or share please use the following link:

May everyone continue to surround this family with the love, compassion, and support they need, not only in the days ahead but in the weeks and months to come.

Peace and Blessings,
Rev. George W. Smith-Whitfield and The Wesley Temple A.M.E. Zion Church

🙌🏽 I Brought My PRAISE with Me!

On Sunday, Wesley Temple AME Zion Church had the pleasure of welcoming guest speaker Pastor Darrel Williams, who shared an uplifting message from Psalms 34:1–3.

He reminded us:

👏🏽 My praise is my decision.
Choose to praise God in spite of your circumstances. Even in troubled times, let your praise remain!

🙌🏽My praise reminds me of what God has already done.

Remember the wonderful things God has done in your life. When trouble shows up, recall what He has brought you through—and give Him praise!

🗣️ My praise will not be silent.
Don’t be ashamed of whom you worship! Give God your Shabach praise—a loud, joyful praise!

Thank you, Pastor Williams, for reminding us to bring our praise wherever we go! What God has done deserves to be remembered and celebrated!🙏🏽
