Later, Odile left with her still young son to be part of the mission planting in Douala, Cameroon in 1994. After her son&#8217;s return to France, Odile never lost her heart for the ministry and led the women in Libreville, Gabon in 1997 and Pointe-Noire in Congo Brazzaville in 2003. Affectionately known by all as Mamie Odile because of her practical character, profound wisdom and her very hard working example. Her life and ministry impacted hundreds of disciples. A very quiet and modest woman, she yet always had an indelible impact on those who spent time with her. She has left a legacy of everyday faith and righteousness. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Our beloved sister in the Lord, Odile Meviye, peacefully passed away Saturday, November 4th after a long battle with cancer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":25,"featured_media":5711,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ghostkit_customizer_options":"","ghostkit_custom_css":"","ghostkit_custom_js_head":"","ghostkit_custom_js_foot":"","ghostkit_typography":"","_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_hide_featured_image":false,"_jetpack_featured_image_duplicate_dismissed":0,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[71],"tags":[51],"post_folder":[151],"class_list":["post-5710","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","tag-africa"],"featured_image_src":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/disciplestoday.org\/clone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/82bed3e0-c9a5-4860-a87a-6a81ad4616b2.jpg?fit=310%2C547&ssl=1","author_info":{"display_name":"dtadmin","author_link":"https:\/\/disciplestoday.org\/clone\/author\/dtadmin\/"},"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/phsvEw-1u6","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":3357,"url":"https:\/\/disciplestoday.org\/clone\/paul-okolo-goes-home-to-the-lord\/","url_meta":{"origin":5710,"position":0},"title":"Paul Okolo Goes Home to the Lord\u00a0","author":"dtadmin","date":"September 9, 2018","format":false,"excerpt":"Our beloved brother in the Lord, Evangelist Paul Okolo, peacefully passed away Thursday, September 6, 2018, after a long battle with renal failure.","rel":"","context":"In &quot;News&quot;","block_context":{"text":"News","link":"https:\/\/disciplestoday.org\/clone\/category\/news\/"},"img":{"alt_text":"","src":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/disciplestoday.org\/clone\/clone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/paul_okolo_G0zCjypkQ2SblaMaQWFc-326x338-1.png?resize=350%2C200&ssl=1","width":350,"height":200},"classes":[]},{"id":5051,"url":"https:\/\/disciplestoday.org\/clone\/calgary-sister-finishes-the-race\/","url_meta":{"origin":5710,"position":1},"title":"Calgary Sister Finishes the Race","author":"dtadmin","date":"September 26, 2018","format":false,"excerpt":"Jenny Ann Abarquez was 31 years old when the Lord took her home as she passed away on Wednesday, September 5th, 2018 after a valiant fight against stage four lung cancer.Jenny\u2019s form of lung cancer is extremely rare and occurs in only one percent of the population.
