Jo Ann accepted Christ as her personal Lord and Savior at a very early age. She was a lifelong member of Mount Pisgah Missionary Baptist Church under the leadership of Pastor Nehemiah Davis until her health declined.  She has served as the Sunday School secretary for the adult department, worked in vacation bible school, Adult Mission Area #5 and #8 and was also an Inspirational Choir member.
