On November 1, 1925 in Fort Pierce, FL the joy of life of Eloise Jenkins was given to the late Harrison and Mattie Norris Jenkins.

Eloise was one of ten children that attended the public schools of Saint Lucie County from the Jenkins' family.

Eloise was a woman of very few words, but when asked of her opinion, her reply was, "I will take it to the Lord in prayer."

Eloise was reared in a christian home where her faith allowed her to seek a relationship with Jesus Christ for herself. Eloise decided to follow Christ by sharing the love of God with those who were lost. She was also a mighty prayer warrior.

Eloise had a chance to share love and marriage with Alvoid Williams. After the dissolution of this marriage, she then shared love and love and marriage with Joe Lettingham. Between this union of marriage, nine children were born.

After her commitment with serving the Lord in spirit and in truth, she became connected with Jesus is Lord International World Wide Ministries under the leadership of the late Dr. Lena Bates. Eloise served as the Church Mother.
