Author Biography As a child growing up in Beaumont, Texas, my desire has always been to help people. I attended College to pursue a career in Nursing. I worked in hospitals my entire life and helped those who were sick. After marrying and raising two daughters, it was time for me to really get busy and do Kingdom work. I dedicated my life completely to Christ and chose to live the Christian-lifestyle. After the loss of my late husband, God directed me to be a full-time servant and to do His perfect will. Several years later, I was elected by God to become the First Lady to the Rev. E. L. Burnside, Pastor of the Mount Carmel Missionary Baptist Church, located in Houston, Texas. My work for Christ is always with me on my job. I love to tell everyone at the work place that my employer's name was changed to Jesus when I accepted Christ as my personal savior. My mission is to encourage people daily and to let them know that God is in control and everything will work out in their favor, regardless of what man may think or say and always continue to put their trust in God. Written By, Constance Burnside Author Biography A survivor, this word fit the description of the life I lived to tell about.
