During Covid almost daily we watched the MMC on YouTube. The choir along with Mother Mosie got us through that very difficult time. We will miss her and her beautiful spirit. Every time I hear I´m not tired yet I will think about her. I know she is with the Lord and deserves her rest.

Condolences to the family and my high school classmate Kenneth Horne. Mama Mosie is singing in heaven. "I´m not tired yet" and "When I rose this morning" was my grandmothers favorite songs. They were the last songs she heard while she transitioned to heaven. Mama Mosie will be missed by so many.

I remember years ago when I visited my Mother's Church, the Ushers had just let us in so we could be seated in the Sanctuary and the Choir was preparing to sing their first Inspirational Song for that morning and Lord and behold it was "I ain´t tired yet"! I got up out of my seat and felt something all over me! This was a time when I was looking for answers and felt tired but I kept telling myself that I couldn´t quit. This Song literally jump started and recharged my faith in Jesus Christ and I joined that Church and later was chosen to be a Deacon. Thank You Mama Mosie Burks and I know you´re resting in the bosom of Jesus.

God bless the family and keep them in this time of sorrow. I think of one of the choirs song. "When I rose this morning", Mother Mosie when she rose that morning absent from the body, but present with the Lord. Rest in peace, you fault a good battle, and finished the course. We all shall meet again at the meeting, Amen

Mama Mosie, you truly will be missed. I loved hearing your voice it was truly so beautiful, as were you and your soul. I used to listen you sing with my grandma before she passed away on March 30th of this year. I miss her so much. You were such a bright light and an inspiration to me and to everyone in the world.
You take your rest Mama Mosie, it´s well deserved. And also, please say hi to my grandma for me. Tell her I love her, and I miss her, and I cherished all of my time with her. Her nickname is Pie.
