About Susan Jones
Hi and thanks for stopping by! I am a public school teacher in West Virginia (USA) with a love of music. I sing locally, sometimes as a soloist and sometimes as an alto in my family's gospel quartet, and I am a certified lay speaker which allows me to fill the pulpit when pastors are away and need a substitute.

My musical training comes by way of my father, the public school system (we have some top notch teachers) and Ben Speer's Stamps-Baxter School of Music where I spent a couple months of intense training under mentors Jack Clark, Harold Lane, Eugene McCammon and Daryl Williams. I now write for the southern convention-style songbooks as well as for myself, my church choir, school's choruses, and some of the performers of Southern Gospel and Inspirational music. I have been extremely blessed to share some writing credits with Tery Wilkins (If It Wasn't For The Cross) and Chris Binion and David Hanvelt (One Gave All.) The final demo is a sample of my convention-style songwriting. The performance was the West Virginia School of Gospel Music student body directed by Charles Towler at the closing program, 2006. Jason Vaughan is playing the piano.

I live in the wonderful community of Moundsville where I'm also a church choir director, AWANA commander, and Sunday School teacher. My husband, Bill, is a retired high school history teacher and continues to be active in our public schools, local church and Lions Club. Life takes its turns, but God is good all the time!
Here are some pictures of family, friends and my fellow social studies teachers.

Greetings in the name of the Lord!

Thank you for being my friend here on ShoutLife. It is always nice to connect with my brothers, and sisters in Christ Jesus! Please stop by my page sometime to read my testimony, and to listen to my music. I hope we get to know each other better in the months to come. May God bless you and yours always!
