Cheryl Salem (née Prewitt) (born 1957), from Ackerman, Mississippi was Miss America 1980, and is now an Christian evangelist, singer, prolific author, and musician. She has been married to Harry Salem II, (the brother-in-law of televangelist Richard Roberts) since 1985 and, along with her husband and children, she ministers through Salem Family Ministries.〔(Salem Family Ministries )〕 She is a strong politically conservative, evangelical Christian. Referred to as "God's Miss America", Cheryl is now evangelizing all around the world. She speaks at many churches, get-togethers, and conferences, with a special focus on salvation and on restoring worship in the Church. At age 11 a horrifying automobile accident left Cheryl with a scarred face, a body cast and a wheelchair, all of which she overcame to become Miss MSU, Miss Starkville, Miss Mississippi, and Miss America.〔http://www.missamerica.org/our-miss-americas/1980/1980.aspx〕 The Salems have two sons, Harry III and Roman, and a daughter, Gabrielle, who is deceased. They have written a book to honor their daughter Gabrielle entitled, from ''Mourning to Morning'', with inserts from Benny Hinn, Oral Roberts, Eastman Curtis and many more.〔http://www.salemfamilyministries.org/shop/web/gabrielle.asp〕 ==Miss America 1980== The local milkman told a 5-year old Cheryl Prewitt that she would be Miss America one day. And so she was. Cheryl Prewitt walked the runway to become Miss America 1980, despite poverty, sexual abuse, a horrific car crash that resulted in a physical handicap and over 100 stitches in her face at age 11, and subsequent accident and fall that put a total of 200 stitches in her face by age 20 which have never been touched with plastic surgery. Prewitt was the first Miss America to have a platform, something she said the pageant now encouraged for all contestants. "I stood for God and country and putting the two back together." Ms. Prewitt entered - and lost - pageants for 5 years before successfully winning the crown that would take her to Atlantic City. She won the Miss Starkville and Miss Mississippi titles in 1979, culminating in Miss America 1980. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Cheryl Prewitt」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
