FAREWELL SISTER TITI
How do I begin to describe Sister Titi as I fondly call her whom I met on the 17th of October when my family worshipped at He's Alive Chapel, Berachah Centre, Badore, for the 1st time. The warmth and the reception at the Church from the Patorate to the Members was infectious, leading to my family adopting the Church immediately as our fellowship centre, being new to the environ.
Sister Titi became an immediate Sister, a friend and a confidant, caring beyond words. The teenagers sunday school class became the talking point in my house. My son quickly chose "Mama T" as he fondly calls her as his 2nd mum and will easily run to his "Mama T" on the slightest provocation in the house. You were there for the Teenagers whom you loved with unparalled passion, even when they are misbehaving, you were strong in faith that they will be alright. You refused to give up on your Teenagers and encouraged us as parents to believe God for the fulfilment of their destinies. As I write this, I have tears in my eyes as I ask - who will be there for your "Josh"? How I wish you lived to see "Josh" fulfil his destiny. I have not been able to bring the news to your "Josh" even now.
The news of your death has remained devastating and I am struggling so hard to reconcile the fact that you are gone. Somehow, I got consoled with the word that those who have made impact in life are those that are currently going home. You have gone ahead of us to Him that loves you more. I remember clearly when in 2011 -2012 I had a serious challenge and wanted to take a very drastic decision that would have been very comfortable for me as an individual. It was Sister Titi's counsel to seek the perfect will of God that held me back.
My sincere prayers is that God will console Pastor Fabian and the children as well as His Church. I join ALL in imploring the Spirit of Comfort to be at work at a time like this. I remember when we were studying the Holy Spirit in Sunday School and I can still see you bringing a different perspective to the study especially looking at other versions of the Bible in your IPAD for clearer explanations to the study. I enjoyed listening and sometimes getting in an "argument" which mostly led to a better understanding of the Teachers.
Words can never be enough to describe the Sister Titi that I knew for >4 years. You remained caring to the very end. I and my children will miss you so much but be consoled that we will try not to allow your legacies to be forgotten.
Rest In Peace until we meet to part no more.
