His niece read a quote from the 98-year-old ex-commander-in-chief to the church worshippers in Carter’s hometown of Plain, Georgia.
The congregation at Maranatha Baptist Church honored Carter at the first Sunday services following the somber news about the 39th president.
“Maybe if we think about it, maybe it’s time to pass the baton,” an emotional Fuller told congregants before leading them in a prayer. “Who picks it up, I have no clue. I don’t know.
