Uncrowned Community Builders

Velma Jones was born and educated in Roxboro, North Carolina. She later relocated to Buffalo where she met and married Bishop Leroy Jones. She is the mother of seven children and grandmother to six.

Having received Christ more than thirty years ago, Evangelist Jones subsequently acknowledged her call to the ministry. Now, as an ordained minister of the gospel, she serves on the pastoral staff of the Cold Spring Church of God in Christ where her late husband formerly served as pastor.

God has blessed her ministry greatly by opening doors and allowing her to exercise her gift all over the United States. In her extensive travels, Evangelist Jones has ministered on several occasions at the Potters House of Dallas, Texas, and has taught and preached at numerous women conferences, retreats, and special services.

Desiring to become all that she can be in Christ has set Evangelist Jones upon a course of study with the Rhema Bible School from which she will receive a degree in Bible studies.

Her heartfelt desire is to be instrumental in seeing the body of Christ grow in a first-love relationship with the Father and to walk in the ministry of reconciliation. Sister Jones' ministry of reconciliation has truly been anointed and blessed by God.
