A woman of unwavering faith, Lillie accepted Christ at a young age and joined New Jerusalem Baptist Church in Thomasville, Georgia. After moving to Miami, she attended the Miami Revival Center for over 20 years. Later in life, Lillie became a dedicated member of Jesus People Ministries Church International, where she served faithfully in the Wisdom Generation Ministry.
