First Lady Pamela Daniels

“Above All Else, Family is My Ministry”

First Lady Pamela Daniels, a native of San Antonio, Texas, is the wife of the late Dr. B. R. Daniels Sr. and former First Lady of Beth Eden Missionary Baptist Church in Ft. Worth. Affectionately known as Lady “D”, her heartbeat was to assist her husband in every endeavor to ensure that the work God set before him became manifested in the minds and lives of the people. And this she she did for 39 years, while standing side by side with her husband until God called him home on June 22, 2022.

Lady D accepted the Lord at an early age and enjoyed serving God’s people as a youth leader at the Willow Park Christian Church, Rev. Thomas Hadley, Pastor (Deceased), in San Antonio. The Lord blessed her to make Ft. Worth her home as a young adult after attending Texas Christian University. Lady D strives to be an example of a virtuous woman -- a woman who is yielded to God in every area of her life. While Lady D humbly served as Dr. B.R. Daniels Sr.'s helpmate until his passing, she is also the proud mother of Lynicia and grandmother ("Tia) of two precious grandchildren McKenna and Trenton.

The Lord has given Lady D a passion for children, and she enjoys the extra special blessing of being a mother and mentor to so many young people through her ministry. Her extensive ministry at Beth Eden includes New Member Orientation Ministry Leader, AWANA Journey teacher, Young Ladies of Grace Ministry teacher, Youth Ministry worker, and Young Adult teacher. She has served as the Annual Women’s Day speaker, Women’s Conference teacher, and a Young Adult and Singles Conference teacher. Lady D’s community leadership includes her service as the 2nd Vice President of the Ft.Worth Minister’s Wives and Widows Union. She was the former president of the Northwestern Baptist District Association - Minister’s Wives Division, and she served as a member of the Baptist Missionary and Education Convention of Texas, Congress teacher - Minister’s Wives Division and member of the host committee 2006 for the National Baptist Convention, U.S.A. Inc. - Minister’s Wives Division.

Lady D continues to aim toward and produce excellence in all of her ministerial opportunities. In 2009, Lady D received her Associates in Biblical studies from Southern Bible Institute.

2010 presented one of her biggest challenges to her spirit, but because of her faith and commitment to the Lord, she has overcome Breast Cancer. From this challenge, Survivor Dolls was born. As founder of Survivor Dolls, a 501C3 organization, she created a platform to support women and their families while they overcome breast cancer and through every facet of treatment from diagnosis to recovery.

Finally, Lady D has a heart for people and is a committed prayer warrior. She lets everyone know that “God Got It!" This is her mantra as she continues to serve God in Spirit and in Truth. Her life scripture is Psalms 37 in its entirety with emphasis on v5 "Commit thy way unto the Lord; trust also in Him; and He shall bring it to pass."

She also holds aTexas Principal Certification. Her passion for helping students achieve their maximum potential is what led her to pursue a career in early childhood, as well as elementary education. Mrs. Barnes worked in public education for more than 18 years. In that time, she realized two things. 1. Students need a solid foundation in order to achieve high levels of success in secondary education 2. It is equally as important for students to have a strong spiritual foundation in order to navigate school and life.

She set out on a journey to achieve that about 9 years ago when she took over as owner and CEO of Converse Christian School. She made it her mission to advocate for her students to ensure that they get all the support her students need to be successful. Leading Converse Christian School is not just a job, it is a calling and one that she is committed to doing with excellence to the Glory of God. She has also supported other churches in creating early learning centers in their space with the focus of providing quality, God-centered education opportunities for young learners.

Nycia Emerson is a designer, faith author, wife, and boy mom who lives in the Austin, TX area.  She is also the founder of She Inspires, a faith-based organization that brings women together over Brunch and Jesus.

When God put She Inspires in her heart over ten years ago, she wasn't sure what he had in store. Since She Inspires was born in 2013, she has a whole new outlook on the word "ministry" and all that God has for each woman connected through this vision that he put in her heart.  Nycia is blown away by all that God is doing within the community of women worldwide and how he allows women to blossom in a way that gives them confidence and enables them to connect and link arms for him.
 
Nycia loves to inspire everyone around her, and any chance she gets to share God's love brings her so much joy.  Nycia believes that living the life God created for us makes life more purposeful.  She also believes that "Inspiration comes from the things that lift our spirits and allow us to love fully and live a life of peace.
