(revike) With hearts full of emotion, we must announce that Rev. Ike made his transition on July, 28, 2009. He was an extraordinary man, and we’ve lost a loved and respected leader, husband, father, and teacher. We will all miss him terribly but, without a doubt, Rev. Ike will continue to live on through his timeless teachings, and through his students. We want to thank all of Rev. Ike’s faithful members and supporters around the world for helping to keep his memory alive by sharing his Prosperity philosophy with others, and by helping us to keep this Prayer Ministry strong through your generous support. The outpouring of love and condolences from Rev. Ike’s friends, admirers, and members of his Church family all over the world is genuinely appreciated. Rev. Ike always said that when he left this earth for his journey to the Other Side, he did not want a funeral, but instead, asked that people celebrate his life.
