Jeralyn desires to encourage and challenge people to pursue a life of virtue. Her previous years as a classroom teacher have impacted the way she speaks and teaches today. Her humorous and unique speaking style gets her audience up and out of their seats as they actually get to participate in what she’s speaking about. Whether she has them making dresses out of toilet paper, competing in relay races, cooking, or combining ingredients to make chemical reactions, her audience not only hears her message, but they have a visual and hands-on memory of her lessons that will last for years. In 2010, she began Purely Virtuous, a ministry with the intent of encouraging and challenging women. For twenty five years she has served in various ministry leadership roles. From 2001-2010 she led a weekly moms group of approximately 200 women–which has made her a firm believer that, “Yes! One can O.D. on estrogen!” Jeralyn enjoys speaking on topics of leadership, friendships in women, and being a mom. She and her husband make their home in the booming metropolis of Chenoa, Illinois and have two college-aged daughters.
