Rev. Timothy Wright Still in Critical Condition, Homegoing Service for Betty Wright and D.J. Wright held in Brooklyn
"My mom lived what I call a rapture ready life .That means
that at any minute, at any moment when God came, it was
alright with her because she was prepared."-Daniel Wright
WCBSTV.com has the video report on the funerals of Betty Wright and her grandson DJ, which was held today in Brooklyn at Washington Temple Church of God in Christ. According to reports, the service was so full that the crowd had to gather on the sidewalk outside of the church.
The Wright’s five sons-Danny, David, Derrick, Dwayne and Donny-told the audience about their mom’s incredible faith. "We have to celebrate her life," Donny Wright said. "She didn’t live a life of being sorry. She lived a life of praising God."
The Wright’s grandson, 14-year old D.J., had just graduated from the eighth grade at Roosevelt Middle School. The road trip with his grandparents - his first time away from his parents - was a gift because of his good grades. Daniel Wright, the father of D.J. said, "I wish I could say what I want to say clean, but it hurts like H-E-double-L, it hurts."
The Wrights were returning from a religious convention in Detroit when their car was hit head-on by a car driving the wrong way on Interstate 80 in Pennsylvania. The wrong-way driver also died. Rev. Wright is in critical condition in a Pennsylvania hospital on a respirator.
Please continue to pray for the full recovery of Rev. Timothy Wright and for comfort and strength for his family.

One correction to the article…
Daniel’s quote was incorrect. He said: “my mom lived what I call a rapture ready life, not a wrapped and ready life…
Chanelle,
Thanks for letting me know about the correction. I really want the information to be as accurate as possible.
May God continually bless you all. We are praying for Rev. Timothy Wright and Family. Remember in times like these, God is carrying you through the storm. He said He would not leave you, nor will He put more on you than you can bear. I know it is hard right now, just know that God will ease the pain.
