Amy Vaughn
Children's Ministry Director
My name is Amy Vaughn. I am married to Charlie Vaughn and have three beautiful children: two boys and one girl. I graduated from Cleburne in 2001. From the time I was 20 years old, I started volunteering in Cleburne schools. I found that my favorite place to volunteer in the school is the library. I love to read, especially to the little ones! For about five years, I babysat for different family members in my home. My family and I have been members of Bono Baptist for six years. Five of those years I have been teaching children on Sunday mornings and Wednesday nights. In June of 2019, I became the Children's Ministry Director of Bono Baptist Church. I love teaching children about Jesus, God and the Holy Spirit. I feel blessed to be a part of the Bono family.
