A message from our pastor...
Welcome Rev. Mark Magoni
It is my pleasure to welcome The Rev.
Mark Magoni to the pulpit at Centerville UMC
today. Mark is the former pastor at Wesley
UMC on Hartley Bridge Rd. He is now
serving as the new Chaplain at the United
Methodist Home for Children and Youth in
Macon, Columbus, Americus, Valdosta, and St.
Marys.
In addition to giving spiritual guidance to
the children and staff, Mark takes a great deal
of time to go around and share the story of the
UM Home at churches like our own.
Mark calls Columbus, GA his home where
he graduated from Columbus High School. He
went to The University of Georgia and to
Asbury Theological Seminary. He has served
St. Paul UMC in Columbus as Youth Director
and Associate Pastor. He also served Midland
UMC in Columbus, Wesley UMC in Macon
and now calls the UM Home his place of
ministry.
He and Fran live in Warner Robins
where she is the Minister of Children At
Harvest UMC.
They have three grown
daughters.

Flowers on the Altar
The fresh flower arrangements on the altar on some
Sundays are placed there by generous donations. You can
have fresh flowers given in memory or in honor of
someone or just to the glory of God. Each arrangement is
$45 (cost has gone up) There are many Sundays open.
Check out the flower chart on the bulletin board outside
the office and pick a Sunday that is special to you.
With Sincere Gratitude
“We thank all of you for all the love and friendship you
have shown our family.” Love in Christ, John & Donna
Nichols
Our Church Needs You
There are many ways you can help serve our church. We
need the gifts and talents of our congregation in all areas.
Greeters, Ushers, Children’s Sermon, Children’s Church,
Sound Tech, Lay Readers, Children’s Sunday School, and
J.A.M. are just some of the ways to serve. If you feel led to
be a part, let us know how you would like to help.

again in August after school starts. See Amber Gamble.
