Loss of a Great Woman of God

Sis. Sharlett Embry, pastor of the COGOP in Caneyville passed away this morning. She's been battling cancer for a while. Sis. Sharlett passed about 7 or 7:30 this morning.

When someone said anything about a woman of God, she is the first person I think of. She has pastored for many years as well as worked in camps and other state events. She was a Godly Mother to many around the state of Ky that did not have one. She will be greatly missed, I miss her already.

Keep the family in your prayers!

I just heard the news through email myself. She was a worker right up to the end, I have heard testimonies of those that have visited with her as the cancer progressed, and she was always working to lift up others and draw the lost to Christ. She has gained her reward, but will be greatly missed.

I saw her at the Assembly and I could tell she was having a rough time with everything. She saw me from a distance and started to make her way towards me and said I knew you would be one of the first people I saw. When i asked how she was doing she said "God's taking care of me, he always has" then she said. "how are you? did God refresh your spirit tonight?"

a great lady, I know she is with God.

She was an awesome woman. My Mom was friends with her and had been keeping me updated. I am sorry for this loss.

Sis. Embry has finally gotten "her mountain" that she used to sing about.

I imagine she is shouting up and down on her mountain at the present
time.

God bless her family at this time.
