She also shared the heartbreaking moment she learned of her husband’s death.

“When you say, ‘Here I am, lord, use me,’ God will take you up on that. And he did with Charlie,” Erika said, wiping away tears.

"11 days ago, God accepted that total surrender from my husband and then called him to his side. On the afternoon of September 10, I arrived at a Utah hospital to do the unthinkable: To look directly at my husband's murdered body. I saw the wound that ended his life, I felt everything you would expect to feel. I felt shock, I felt horror and a level of heartache that I didn't even know existed. But there was something else, too. Even in death I could see the man that I love. I could see the single gray hair on the side of his head, which I never told him about — now he knows, sorry baby."

Erika reminded mourners that Charlie was on tour doing what he loved when he was shot in the neck.

“And then he blinked and met his savior in paradise,” she said.

“After Charlie's assassination, we didn't see violence. We didn't see rioting. We didn't see a revolution. Instead, we saw what my husband always prayed he would see in this country — we saw revival," she continued. “I bless all of you for coming here from all over the world to honor and celebrate my Charlie."
