From The Founder, Visionary & CEO Mernistyne Rennette
Greetings and welcome!
It is an honor and a privilege to serve as the Founder and CEO of this exceptional and auspicious organization known as Beta Eta Epsilon Sorority and Fraternity Incorporated. We are the BEES! Our Sorority and Fraternity consists of diverse and unique members. Beta Eta Epsilon Sorority and Fraternity Incorporated is not a club. It is a divine calling. The members are chosen and hand picked. The membership is exclusive. One must understand , embrace and be ready to work the vision that God has given. We believe in Jesus Christ and that the Holy Bible is the true Word of God! Our mission is to be the change that we want to see.
Why Beta Eta Epsilon Sorority and Fraternity Incorporated? This assignment is a commission that I received from the throne room of Heaven. I heard the call and then I answered. The commission was “GO!” and I said “Yes! Send me. I’ll go!”
More about me. In 2019, I was in a coma and on life support. The doctors told my family to place me in hospice or take me home to die comfortably amongst my loved one. After a period of time, my family decided that it was time to let me go because they knew that I wouldn’t want to suffer like that. Guess what? After being taken off of life support, I continued to breathe on my own. I received and became a living, breathing miracle. A testimony!!
After awakening from the coma, I later learned that I could no longer walk. My reality upon waking up was that I was now, officially, a battery operated woman and that I was going to be in a wheelchair. It was a humbling experience. It was in this place where the crushing took place and where God would pour the “oil”, the dreams and the visions into me. I accepted this place of the crushing. I accepted these events as my new reality, my new norm. I still said ,” YES GOD!”
My family didn’t give up on me. They decided to take me to a different hospital for a second opinion. It was this hospital that the suffering intensified. The suffering was a place of humility, I could do nothing for myself. I was at the mercy of others to care for me. It was during this time that God showed me how much we need each other. I had to have people to wipe my behind, clean my nose, feed me and to lift me into the wheelchair or onto the commode through a sling. It was through these selfless acts of kindness and outpouring of love from others that I recovered. The miracle continues. I can now walk. I’m no longer in a wheelchair. I even dance. I began to take salsa classes. Go figure. After these events, I made God a promise. I promised Him that I would tell at least one person per day about the life He restored to me. He gave me my life back! A life to serve! I promised that I would give back those acts of kindness wherever I can. This is why this organization was started. I know that I am a blessed woman. Now, I want to be a blessing and encouragement to others. Will you help me to give back? Will you help me to serve our communities? Will you help me to pay it forward? Our families and communities need us. Together, we can do this.
