early educational resume includes Wheatley, New Hope & Saddler Elementaries,
and Carter G. Woodson High School where she was a member of the

Growing up in a household where God was ever present Trish professed a
hope in God at an early age and united with the Little Rose Baptist Church.
Over the course of her life and travels she visited other churches and upon
her return to Muskogee she united with the Coal Creek Baptist Church under
the pastorate of her mother Rev. F. J. Wright. Upon on the closing of those
doors she became an attendee of Turning Point New Deliverance Church under
