McBride and then under Bishop Dewayne McBride where she attended faithfully and served as a Sunday School teacher and a speaker of God’s word until a decline in her health would no longer allowed her to attend in person.

During Oddie’s time with the Christ Holy Sanctified organization, she accepted Jesus Christ as her Lord and Savior and walked closely with Him until the lord called her home to be with him.
