On behalf of Apostle Kelvin E. Shouse, Lady Cheryl Shouse, and entire The Covenant Church family, we extend our deepest and most heartfelt condolences to Bishop Rory C. Baker, Sr., the entire Baker family, and the Fruit of the Spirit Ministries International Church Family in the passing of their beloved Matriarch, Co-Founder and National Mother, Mother Bettye Jean Baker.
We join our hearts with Bishop Baker, a cherished part of our fellowship family, and all who loved Mother Baker during this time of bereavement. We pray that the God of all comfort will strengthen every heart, grant peace in the days ahead, and allow the precious memories of her life, love, service, and faith to remain a lasting source of encouragement.
We mourn with you, we pray with you, and we stand with you. May Mother Baker rest from her labor and may her legacy continue to speak through the many lives she touched. 🤍🕊️
“Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.” — Matthew 5:4
With love and sincere sympathy,
