The Mothers of the Church

The Mother Board of traditional African American churches always receives the utmost respect and they are a force to wreckon with. When these women call Jesus on the mainline to pray for you, He always listens and answers their prayers on your behalf. As a young child, you know better than to act up in church if you are sitting anywhere near them in the pews and all they need to do is cut you a look. Their faith in God is strong and unwavering, and they are the backbone of black congregations.
