Sister Childress joined the Pioneer Baptist Church in the year 1940 and when the Jakes Branch United Baptist Church was organized, she moved her letter from the Pioneer Church to Jakes Branch Church and went in as a charter member. She remained with this church until death. A vacant place is in our home and church, but we feel our loss is her eternal gain in glory.
