Dear Saints,<\/p>\n

“Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of His Saints<\/em>.”
\nPsalm 116:15<\/p>\n

<\/a>This notice of Episcopal Transition is as per the directive of our Presiding Bishop & Chief Apostle, Bishop Charles Edward Blake, Sr.<\/p>\n

God, who is omnipotent and omniscient, has summoned His Servant, Bishop John Wayne Leggett<\/strong><\/em>, who transitioned from this life earlier on today.\u00a0 Bishop Leggett served our church faithfully as the Prelate of the Georgia Southern Second Ecclesiastical Jurisdiction.<\/p>\n

During the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic resulting in local and state restrictions on public gatherings to achieve social distancing, the Leggett family will hold a private memorial service for this valiant soldier of the Gospel.\u00a0 When the restrictions are lifted, a date will be set for a National Memorial Service that will appropriately recognize the godly life and notable achievements of Bishop John Wayne Leggett.<\/p>\n

During this time of uncertainty, we request the continued prayers as well as acts of emotional and spiritual support for the family.\u00a0 It is with great honor that the National Adjutancy will assist the Leggett family and the Georgia Southern Second Ecclesiastical Jurisdiction during this most difficult time.<\/p>\n

“Blessed be the God, even the father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and the God of all comfort.<\/em>”\u00a0 2 Corinthians 1:3<\/p>\n

Sanctifying the Leader, I Am,<\/p>\n
