CAC Worldwide gave Janet Fashakin  befitting Burial in New York

Bishop Dr. Timothy Agbeja the top Superintendent and Leader of the CAC in America leads an Assemblage of CAC Pastors worldwide to give late Evangelist and Attorney Dr. Janet Olusolape Fashakin a befitting Burial in a 4 Day Marathon in the Big Apple.

The activist attorney who on her sick bed at the Jamaican Hospital in Queens, New York, had remarkably asked to receive a Holy communion minutes before she drew her last breath as a devout Christian.

That shows as explained by Bishop Agbeja that the learned lawyer fully understood that one of two things in Christianity and Christendom namely the Second coming of Jesus or the Call by Jesus to his anointed, after they have attained their mission and their purpose in life.

Dr. Timothy Agbeja pretty much like Socrates the World’s greatest teacher has eloquently explained to the ecumenical gathering of Christians who gathered from all over the World at the CAC Cathedral at 622 Cortelyou Road in Brooklyn New York to thank God for the quintessential woman of God.

Bishop Agbeja who spoke from the heart and without a note or a teleprompter has delivered one of the most powerful Homilies that received a standing ovation after the powerful man of God was done.

I have never seen anything like it.

The Sermon was so deep and powerful and intellectually sound thus confirming Bishop Agbeja as one of the most eloquent and powerful preachers in the CAC Denomination worldwide today, if the truth be told.

The awesome Cleric explained much to the complete satisfaction and understanding of his listeners that Jesus is the central pillar of Christianity and that Christianity loses its essence and moral fiber and authenticity if Jesus is discounted from it.

He then went on to link in a wonderful symbiosis how Evangelist Janet Fashakin nee Ogundipe from Ilesha has exemplified or epitomized that conviction in her life and in recognition of the amazing legacies the extraordinary woman has left behind by how many initiatives and breakthrough for Christ she has successfully pioneered and how many lives she has touched in her 67 years on this Earth.

The Bishop told the Congregation in lucid language it is not how long a Christian has lived on Earth, it is how well the Christian has fulfilled his or her mission or purpose in life.

It is whether or not that individual would be ready for the rapture or the “cutting off” when he or she hears the call to glory as a believer.

He brilliantly described the two things as follows:
When Jesus come again as predicted in the Holy Scriptures or when Jesus calls the individual like He has done on September 14, 2024 to our beloved
“Janet Olusolape Fashakin Omo Ogundipe Omo Ijesha Modu Aponoda. Omo Eleni a te I ka. Omo Eleni Ewele, Afinju Adaba to njeun lawujo Asa, Iwerepe gba ra re gba Igi Oko. Afinju lawyer to nwe Gele Ilaari, Ogbontarigi Agbejoro Ako niwaju Adajo”

Bishop Timothy nearly brought down the roof of the Cathedral with his power of Oratory explaining the true meaning of Christianity in a way that is completely and fundamentally new and informative to the ecumenical gathering and in a simple and lucid language that every Dick and Harry could understand.

He ended his virtuoso performance by calling up to the Sanctuary to have the whole Church pray for the family of the Deceased which included their most senior Uncle, Pastor Adegbokun of CAC and his wife, the immediate sister of Janet, Mrs. Rachel Bose Omole and the first son of Janet, 41 year old Opeyemi Fashakin, a brilliant lawyer like his mom and his 3 other siblings comprising of two lawyers and two medical doctors that Janet has left behind.

The powerful Bishop assisted by no less than 50 pastors from CAC and other Denominations have come from all over the world to pay their last respect to an achiever without blemish and one of the greatest Heroines of the nascent Yoruba Nation which sent delegates to represent them at the Thanksgiving Service.

The powerful Bishop had seized the opportunity to briefly acknowledge the presence of Dr. Wumi Akintide who flew in from New Orleans, Louisiana,and other celebrities in the Service while encouraging Attorney Opeyemi Fashakin and his wife and sisters to try and step in into the giant shoes of their mother and to ensure that the imperishable legacies and contributions of their mother to the CAC Church in America and Nigeria as a whole grow by leaps and bounds because those legacies are fundamentally good and benevolent and they need to be preserved, nurtured and kept alive and reinvigorated and replenished

Janet Fashakin Omo Ogundipe was buried like a Royalty at the Pinelawn Cemetery in Long Island as Christian Services, Candlelight Vigils and Service of Songs were simultaneously held for her in Berlin, London in the UK, Toronto, Canada and in Oshogbo, and her hometown of Ilesha and the 3 prominent Universities she had graduated from namely the great Obafemi Awolowo University of Ile Ife, Nigeria, the UCH, Ibadan, the Walden University of Baltimore and last and not the least the Cardoso School of Law of the Yeshiva Jewish University of New York where Dr. Akintide also graduated from many years before Janet gained admission to the same University,

The bond between Janet and Dr. Akintide has come from that development and because Janet was Dr. Akintide’s personal lawyer.

They both recognize Yeshiva University as one of the best Citadel of Learning in the biggest City and the financial capital of the World.

Janet’s connection as a distinguished alumna of the University and her legal background have informed her ability and foresight to become one of the Chief initiators and Coordinators of the annual CAC- sponsored Pilgrimage to Jerusalem from New York.

Janet’s role in organizing the Pilgrimage was acknowledged by the Good Women Association of the CAC which has played a very prominent role in the befitting Burial attended by the Class of 2019 as eloquently acknowledged by Bishop Agbeja in his once-in-a- lifetime Sermon from the Pulpit.

The Ori Oke Apata Branch of the CAC in the City of Baltimore was established by a close associate of Janet Fashakin, namely Evangelist Ruth Apata from Ilawe who singlehandedly sponsored and made it possible for no less than 15 Nigerian women to join the 2019 Pilgrimage to Jerusalem led by Revd Dr. Ilufoye and Bushop Agbeja and their wives who got most of us baptized at the same River Jordan in Israel where Jesus was baptized by John the Baptist as documented in the Bible. All of these individuals all flew to New York to honor their folk heroine.

Yesterday’s Thanksgiving Service was one of a kind that would be remembered for a long time to come in New York and at Ilesha where a few projects to immortalize her name are being actively pursued as we speak
