Dwayne Wade Buys His Mom A Church

I spent a lot of time giving attention to things that don’t really matter like videos of drunk fans, and Kim Kardashian, so it’s necessary to have a little balance. I caught this story about Dwayne Wade buying his mother a church and thought you guys should see it.
For many years Dwayne Wade’s mom Jolinda abused drugs, wasted her life, and her activities eventually placed her on the run from the law. Things changed when she was persuaded by her daughter to attend church. The day in church sparked a chain of events that led to Jolinda turning herself in to the cops, going to prison, dedicating her life to god, and starting a ministry behind bars.
Jolinda Wade is now seven years sober and the proud owner of a church thanks to her son Dwayne.
“I respect my mother so much, from the life that she used to live and to see her today in the life that she lives. I’m so proud of her,” Dwyane Wade told The Associated Press before the service. “Everybody thinks I’m the miraculous story in the family. I think she is. I think what I’ve done means I’ve been very blessed, but she’s been more than blessed. She’s been anointed.”
