“My wife, Darlene and I, are blessed beyond measure and thoroughly thrilled to serve New Birth Lithonia, building on the foundation that Bishop Long established for this amazing ministry,” Davis said in a statement released by the church.

Long passed away from an aggressive form of cancer at the age 63.
