I am very sorry for your loss. Death is the most heart breaking event, that we have to live through in our lives. On a comforting note, the Bible speaks of a time, when there will be no more sickness, or death at Rev. 21 3, 4 .This is a wonderful hope that we can all look forward to.
Chris, I didn’t know your mom but I know you and I know you loved her with your whole heart. I know you will miss her terribly but I know you know she is happy beyond our understanding. My prayers will be that your memories of her will fill you with peace and replace all grief.
She was always such a sweet inspiring lady, love talking to her when she stop by to pick out flowers for someone or her church. She will be missed by many Chris I’m here if ever need to talk.. Love and prayers

Although no words can really help much to ease the loss you bear, just know that you are very close in my thoughts and prayers. The love of those around you will help you through the days ahead. May our Lord bless and comfort you and your family during this time of grief. Please accept my sincere condolences.
In the prayer room and Women of Destiny was where I had some amazing encounters with Mother Augst. She taught me many things, called my dance ministry into being alone with Mother Robeson. She passed the healing anointing in my hands. I will truly miss my spiritual mother, but I’ll see her again one day.

I remember Mother Augst when I was a little girl when Truth Tabernacle Ministries was on Pender Str….the praying Mothers that are etched in my mind was Mother Rosa Gaynor…Nannie Lou Porter and Mother Augst…these women of God stuck in my mind whenever I thought of Prayer warriors. It was always a joy to see her in attendance when she would visit us on Arlington Str. She is truly an angel of God and will be remembered and honored by God for her works here on earth.
Chris, you’re in my thoughts and prayers….Love, Pat

AWESOME WOMAN OF GOD JEAN BELLAMY
May the God of Heaven pour out His love and mercy upon the families and loved ones of Pastor Augst. We never met her but she held a special place in our family’s heart. She prayed for our family and sweet son, Vincent, during his 2-month premature birth. She covered us in prayer miles apart but God closes the gap each word spoken on our behalf. We do the same for her and her family now.
We are sorry to hear of the loss and send our prayers to the family. Jay and Ann Richardson
R.I.P. Mama. You are missed! Thank you to everybody that showed such kindness to us during this time of grief. There’s no doubt mama is resting peacefully and dancing with the angels!
