A Time to Be Born: (Ecclesiastes 3:2)

A Time to Serve:

Lizzie was a devoted woman of faith who deeply loved studying God’s Word and minister and serving as youth director. Her life reflected kindness, encouragement, and unwavering love for others. She faithfully attended and served at First Elizabeth Missionary Baptist Church and Silver Run Missionary Baptist Church, where she found immense joy in worship, fellowship, and serving the Lord.

One of her favorite songs was “Praying Time,” a song that beautifully reflected her faith and devotion to God.
