I live in Washington DC I watched Bishop Patterson every Sunday morning loved his preaching and singing I truly believe he was a man of God RIP BISHOP.
I remember the very fist time I heard Bishop Patterson speak as he presided over the General Assembly. I, who loved to just hear Bishop J O, Sr. talk, was blown away to hear J O, Jr. sounding just like his father. Whenever I would go to Memphis I would make it my business to go to Pentecostal Temple. My prayers are with the Patterson family, Pentecostal Temple, & Headquarter's Jurisdiction. Grace, mercy, & peace be multiplied unto you. Dr. A. D. Lillard - New Bethel COGIC Norfolk, Va.

But your cousin, J. O. (Pat) is still here. A anointing father (W. A) Paternson. See u On other side. amen...God Be Glory.
I didn't have a chance to meet Bishop J.O Patterson Jr but I always here his lineage echoing through his son Pastor Charles Patterson this man was ecclesiastical bridge that help connect us to our noble heritage,legacy,history ministry and culture of the Church of God in Christ
Thank God for family....I felt that...he was so sincere...Mother Patterson felt it too..you can tell at the end...Thank God for the life and ministry of Bishop Gilbert E. Patterson!!
