My purpose is to be a vehicle of LIGHT to see The FATHER, SON – JESUS and the HOLY SPIRIT glorified to a world in need!
Isaiah 60: 1-2
1 Arise, shine; For your light has come! And the glory of the LORD is risen upon you. 2 For, behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, And deep darkness the people: But the LORD will arise over you, and His glory will be seen upon you.
First Lady JoAnn James
JoAnn James is a multi-faceted woman with a treasure trove of talents. The list of her educational, professional and personal accomplishments is both long and impressive. In an attempt to be brief – out of the plethora of words that can be used to describe JoAnn, a fitting encapsulation of her talents can be found in the two-word title of her profession, as well as in her maiden name.
Mrs. James is a native of Shelbyville, Kentucky. She attended the Shelby County Public School System and a graduate of Kentucky State University, where she received a Bachelors of Arts in Social Science, and a Masters of Social Science. JoAnn has also acquired countless amount of training in the field of Social Work at Indiana University, where she has obtained Rank 1 in Education.
Anyone who has had the pleasure of being in her presence for more than a minute knows that she is a social being with a free and loving spirit. JoAnn has truly never met a stranger. Also, those who know JoAnn can attest to the fact that she is an extremely hard worker. She will do whatever it takes to get the job done no matter how daunting or menial the task. She has conjoined her love of people with her untiring work ethic to excel in her professional career at the Jefferson County Public School System. She retired in 2018 after 30 years but hasn’t slowed down one bit as she continues to pour herself into her service as First Lady of Elim Baptist Church where her husband Reverend Vincent E. James, Sr. is Pastor.
JoAnn’s maiden name is Childs. In her role as a social worker, Mrs. James always placed a priority and a premium on protecting children and families. She recognizes the importance of such advocacy as a proud mother of three adult children Joey, Vincent Jr., and a beautiful daughter Carol. But, probably the best and most fitting description of JoAnn James is that she is first and foremost a child of God.
JoAnn is also a member of the following but not limited to:
National Association for the Advancement of Color People
National Council of Negro Women
Delta Sigma Theta Sorority Inc.
Key Association of School Social Workers
Kentucky Association of Black School Administrator
PTA District Wide
Life time member of the Kentucky State University Alumni Association- Louisville Chapter
Alumni Association of Kent School of Social Work – University of Louisville
Named one of Louisville’s 100 Most Fascinating Women
JoAnn believes in the scripture Romans 8:28 “And we know in all things, God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to this purpose.” She holds this scripture dear to heart, and uses it daily to keep her grounded as she encounters life’s challenges and blessings.

She is married to Cecil A. Blye Jr. who holds a Masters of Divinity from Harvard Divinity School located in Cambridge, MA and a Juris Doctorate of Law. He presently works as a pastor and lawyer. She has been married her entire adult life.

Pastor Viennese has been in ministry for 39 years, starting out as a youth minister in Louisville, Ky along with her husband. She says; he has taught her much of what she knows today about serving Christ and being in ministry.
Much of her life consists of witnessing, ministering, counseling and teaching to a hurting, lost dying world. She has seen many lives changed by Preaching the Word of God, through faith, and serving the power of the previous Holy Spirit reach the hearts of people. She has seen signs, wonders and miracles and expects to experience the Power of God in each one of her meetings, as the people of God believe with her.
She stands on the scripture: Mark 16: 20 " And they went forth and preached everywhere, THE LORD WORKING WITH THEM, and confirming the WORD with signs following."
