Sermon
Listening to the Shepherd’s Voice – Pastor John Wesley Taylor
Scripture: Acts 2:42-47 1 Peter 2:23-25 John 10: 1-11
When he has brought out all his own, he goes on ahead of them, and his sheep follow him because they know his voice. The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full. “I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep. – John 10: 4,10-11

Exciting News from the Trustees
🌳 The New Trees Are In!
Our new trees have officially been planted—and they’re off to a beautiful start!
As they take root, they will need consistent care and watering throughout this first year to thrive. In addition, new irrigation is needed, along with ongoing annual maintenance to ensure these trees remain healthy and vibrant for years to come.
On Easter, Pastor John announced the “Tree Fund” campaign, with a goal of raising at least $20,000 to support this important effort. We are grateful to Beacon Gardens, who provided a significant discount and professionally planted the trees.
Donations may be made:
- In memory or honor of a loved one
- To the Glory of God
- Or with another special designation
These gifts will help sustain the trees and build on the generosity already pledged.
To contribute, please mark your checks “New Trees.”
The trees are expected to be fully planted by the end of April, so time is of the essence.
Thank you for helping nurture this beautiful addition to our church grounds for generations to come..

Wheels for Zeb & Barry
Rides to Sunday Worship – Volunteers Needed
We’re organizing rides for members of our church community who are eager to attend the 10:00 am Sunday service—and we’d love your help.
A sign-up calendar is available in the church office for those willing to drive.
- Zeb Olsen, who lives at 1 Buckskin Path in Centerville, is looking for a ride each Sunday.
- Barry Jones-Henry, a resident at Brookdale (just a short distance from Zeb), is also hoping to attend and would be deeply grateful for a ride.
With just one trip, you may be able to bring both to church.
Your time and kindness can make a meaningful difference—helping ensure everyone has the opportunity to participate in worship and stay connected to our community.
Please stop by the church office to sign up. Thank you for being part of this effort.
