Shaunie Henderson is taking proactive damage control measures after silencing that naysayers on social media as she and her husband, Pastor Keion Henderson , return to in-person services at The Lighthouse Church.
Keion sparked backlash and criticism after going viral with his appeals to his congregation. He asked “2,100 people to donate $2,100 each” to help rebuild the Houston-based church’s north campus, which suffered significant damage when Hurricane Beryl battered the city on July 8.
As contentious as the requests were, the donations came through, as the couple posted updates on their social media returning to the refurbished building. Keion previously stated that the building was insured but he said, “We can’t wait on the insurance company to that.”
On Saturday, Aug, 31, Shaunie posted an Instagram video of herself completing her “first lady” duties, placing towels on seats for the patrons and stating she was “ready to step in.”
While the video captioned, “I’m EXCITED TO SEE MY LIGHTHOUSE FAMILY TOMORROW!!!” was meant to welcome back the congregation, Henderson was not welcoming negative comments on her posts, which have been limited.
