From Jeff Hokett:

     In March, my mother, Rev. Doris Hokett, passed away in her sleep at her home in Lagos, Nigeria. We can agree there can never be another person more dedicated to God’s work or more willing to press on with God’s direction no matter the hardship. In April, three memorial services in Africa went over 2 hours each, with local Chiefs, government officials, and church leaders participating with over 1500 total attendees in-person & online for each service. In June, the final memorial service at Faith Assembly of God in Pasadena, Texas, in the Houston area was filled with friends & family covering all 86 years from early childhood in Houston to her last days in Lagos. All four services are on YouTube now if you search for “Doris Hokett Memorial Service” online.

     As you may expect, five churches were left incomplete with Rev. Doris Hokett’s passing, and their total remaining costs were $34,550. Your donation has been added with others to total $11,373 – you helped finish two of the churches. Please pray with us for the remaining $23,177 to complete the last three churches.

     Thank you for helping sustain this ministry’s effort to make a difference in northern Ghana, and we know you are making a difference where you live as well. May God bless you and encourage you. Thanks again for partnering with Hokett International Ministry to complete these last five churches and to honor the many memories from Rev. Doris Hokett’s missionary ministry.
