Vision Statement for Precious Jewels Ministries
The goal of Precious Jewels Ministries is to glorify Jesus by proclaiming His gospel of grace to the lost and encouraging the body of Christ through the word, in our home church, in Texas, in the United States, and ultimately around the world. (Acts 1:8)
Susan Slade
Susan Slade is an ordained minister (Kerygma Ventures) with a bachelor’s degree in English Bible with minors in Pastoral Counseling and Modern Hebrew and a master’s degree in Biblical Literature from Oral Roberts University in Tulsa, Oklahoma. She is the founder and President of of Precious Jewels Ministries. She was a guest on “Life Today” with James Robison three times. She has performed weddings, baby dedications, and served as a research assistant to her pastor from November 2010 to August 2015, helping him prepare for sermons. Susan began by writing scriptural blessing poems for “champions,” children with special challenges, to encourage parents not to define the child by their limitations but by what the Lord says about them; but now she writes these for all children as all of them face challenges. Susan has expanded the scriptural blessings to Covenant Blessings for couples and Exhortation Celebrations for individuals. She has co-authored several devotional books which are available at Amazon.com and many other online book outlets. She and her ministry partner, Susie Hale, have also written a Bible study and are currently working on their second Bible study. Susan is a powerful prayer warrior. By the way, she has a combination of spastic and athetoid cerebral palsy affecting all four limbs and is a double above the knee amputee. Even though Susan has to overcome daily chronic pain, she does not let her challenges define her!

Karen Sue Hale (Susie) has a bachelor’s degree in Music Education and a Master of Education with a focus on language arts and serves as Vice President and Secretary of Precious Jewels Ministries.

She enjoyed teaching a senior adult ladies’ class at North Pointe Baptist Church in Hurst, Texas from June 2014 to August 2016. Susie is Susan’s “facilitator” as she types what Susan dictates and looks up information in books and on the internet when they are working together doing Bible Studies, devotionals, and scriptural blessings. Susie authored two articles published in “Purposeful Singleness Monthly” and one published on a webzine called “Christian Women Today.” She has two “adopted” adult children, a daughter-in-love, a son-in-love, and has been blessed to be called Grandma Susie by seven precious grandchildren.
