First Lady Sherrilyn Jones was born and raised in Chestertown, MD. She was born on June 22. She is one of six children. Her parents' names are Harold R. Somerville, Sr. and Joyce Black Somerville.

First Lady Jones gave her life to Christ on March 30, 1997. She has been saved for over fourteen years and been running for Christ since then. She was a member of Gospel Church of God where the pastor is Ronald T. Fisher. She was very active in the church. She was part of the Education Department Committee, church secretary, and also the president of the Usher committee.
When her husband, Guy Jones, Sr., was called by God to become a pastor of Work In Progress, she was obedient and followed his vision. Since Work In Progress started she has not only been a first lady but also very involved in different committees within the ministry. She is on the praise and worship team, president of the education committee, part of the administration staff in finance, chair of Women’s Day, and chair of the monthly women’s fellowship.
In 2009, Work in Progress and Greater New Hope Church and Ministries became covenant ministries. Our very own First Lady became co-chair of women’s ministry and also financial overseer for United Fellowship of Covenant Ministries.
