Mary was born in St. Petersburg Florida on July 21, 1959. The loving daughter of the late Clarence & Rosa K. Fields aka as Rosa Kate Harris-Cole.



Mary was the fifth oldest of twelve children, a loving and happy mother, and an adoring grandmother and great-grandmother. At the age of 19, Mary became an entrepreneur; she started and operated several successful businesses throughout her life.



She live a full and exciting life, meeting people and putting together events; no one was a stranger. She not only celebrated her life but the lives of others by writing letters, and sending cads and gifts on their special days. When she found Christ that same love, entrepreneurial and coordinating spirit was used for the up-building of God’s kingdom. She started “Mary’s Soup Ministry” preparing hearty soup meals to feed the hungry in the winter season, developing fund raising programs to support her ministry. As one of the mothers of Faith and Love Temple of God Inc., she was a faithful and hard working member, loving God and teaching others of His love for us.
