Memorial Service Held to Honor Millard Fuller's Life and Work

The Fuller Center for Housing held memorial service to honor Millard's life and work from Ebenezer Baptist Church in Atlanta, Ga., where the Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr. once co-pastored with his father. The service opened by current senior pastor of Ebenezer, Rev. Raphael G. Warnock. Millard’s longtime friend and supporter, former Habitat for Humanity board member and fellow world-renowned charismatic speaker, Dr. Tony Campolo, was the keynote spokesperson for the celebration. Former President Jimmy Carter – as well as Habitat and Fuller Center homeowners — spoke about Millard’s work and influence on their lives

Uplifting music was performed by the Ebenezer Baptist Church (Gospel) Choir and Atlanta’s Feed & Seed Band. Popular Australian-born country music entertainer Jamie O’Neal will perform “Look What Love Built,” a song she composed in honor of Millard and Linda which was featured on a CMT television show about the Fullers.
