warrior trying hard not to say or do anything to blemish her salvation. Pat’s career as a comedienne and author has paved the way for many others in both fields. Faith and comedy skills sustained Pat through some of life’s most difficult challenges; a violent assault, a car crash that nearly killed her, followed by the loss of her husband. Pat has been gifted with a unique skill to turn church life experiences into material that people from all walks of life and ages will find hard to put down. That weekend I purchased my first Pat G’Orge-Walker book, Sister Betty Say’s I Do, and read it as I traveled back home to Texas. I laughed and reminisced from the first chapter to the last. I don’t know about you, but, I grew up in a church where a few Sister Betty’s ruled things behind the scenes. Although I don’t recall ever hearing any one of those women advise someone to, “Call that heifer a cab!” but they were equally as commanding in presence and in summing up when folks are being heathens. Pat’s ability to weave serious and funny messages together while showcasing how love and drama can be found at any age, even in the church, is masterful. If you haven’t had the opportunity to slide through the pages of any of Pat G’Orge- Walker’s work I recommend Sister Betty Says I Do. You will not be disappointed.
