Dr. Mable John

Born in Louisiana to Mertis and Lillie John, Mable is the eldest of ten sisters and brothers.  A former R&B vocalist, she is the sister of the late-great Little Willie John. When she embarked on her singing career, she received a bit of advice from her already famous brother. “Either be a star or pack your bags and go home”. Mable heeded his advice; she is indeed a star.

During the 50’s and 60’s, John toured the South with some of the biggest names of that era: Jimmy Reed, Shirley, and Lee, B.B. King, Sam Cooke, The Flamingo’s and others.  Now living in the Los Angeles area, John is Pastor of “Joy In Jesus Ministries” with an evangelistic outreach called “A PLACE TO PRAY”, where she feeds the hungry and gives clothes to the needy on a daily basis. The ministry has a full line referral service that assists men and women on how to reclaim their place in society. July 1993, John received her Doctrine of Divinity degree from the Crenshaw Christian Center.
