The Jones-Shepherd Family Endowed Scholarship

The Jones-Shepherd Family Scholarship was established by Dr’s. Taylor and Kimberlyn Jones in remembrance of their loving parents and in remembrance of their conversion. At one time they were living in Switzerland and were legally designated as Jones-Shepherd, as the Swiss chose to take the surname of the husband and the maiden name of the wife, separated by a hyphen. Since it was during this time that their conversion occurred, they would like the scholarship to be remembered by this designation.

Our desire is to help students recognize that every aspect of music-making is worship, and enable them to develop their God-given gifts to become salt and light. We want all of our students to live as God-first musicians.
