Faith Greenleaf

Faith Greenleaf was the middle daughter of James and Mae Greenleaf.

(Grace was the oldest daughter and Charity was the youngest, because Jacob tells Grace, "Remember you left Faith too..." when Grace left to go to college.)

Early Life and Later Suicide
Before she left Calvary, Faith, Grace, and two other members were in a gospel singing group that would perform for other churches and Christian organizations. This was revealed in Season Two. Faith was also a youth pastor for the children's church, which was called "Little Saints" as this is mentioned in Season One.

She was molested and raped by Uncle Mac. As a result, she left home and became addicted to drugs. It is presumed that she also engaged in prostitution to finance her drug habit and numb her pain.

Prior to the events of Season 1, she committed suicide by drowning in the lake by the Greenleaf manor. The family took the death as "God's way of taking her early", mentioned in Season One, Episode One. Aunt Mavis and Grace both know that the family did not want to accept the fact that Faith committed suicide and didn't want the publicity and scrutiny that came with it. However, Grace soon believes that the suicide was the cover-up for murder, but there is no evidence to support this.

Season One
It is revealed in Season 1, Episode 9 (The Broken Road) that Uncle Mac was sexually attracted to Faith. Mac tried to confess his innocence to Mae about the sexual abuse charges. However, he accidentally confesses to Mae that he did rape those girls, including his niece, in an indirect way

Here is the script:

Mae: "Say you didn't do it."

Mac: "That's what I've been saying the whole time. I did not do it."

Mae: "Any of it?"

Mac: "Any of it!"

Mae: "And that you never touched Faith."

Mac: "No, no. I loved her. I think about her every day. It's a crime that Faith is not here and Gigi's still here to trouble you like this. But you... know how it is. God takes the best for himself and leaves the rest of us to shift. Faith was the best."
