God has blessed Elder Jones to be an inspiration not only in the church but also in
the marketplace where she served over 25 years as an administrator at Hampton

She loves God with all her heart and strives to be all God has called her to be. She

One of her inspirational scriptures is Ecclesiastes 9:10, Whatever your hand finds
to do, do it with your might; for there is no work or device or knowledge or
wisdom in the grave where you are going. She believes whatever gifts and talents
God has given to us, we should use them for edifying the Body of Christ and to
bring glory to God.
