Paula White-Cain, a prominent former megachurch pastor and televangelist, who serves as head of the White House Faith Office, shared her condolences in a statement on Facebook along with multiple photos of the two together.

“Today a General for the kingdom, a pioneer, a worldwide evangelist and MY FRIEND went to be with The Lord,” said White-Cain. “With tears in my eyes .. I will miss you @jonilamb .. and I know you are in the Presence of God.. fully perfected .. You finished your course.”
