Thankful for the Jones Chapel UMC pavillion

Adair County Public School bus drivers, from left, Chris Reeder, Johnny Richard, Joe Vanarsdale and Perry Reeder were preparing to hand out lunches to families in the Gradyville section of Adair County Wednesday. They are thankful to Jones Chapel United Methodist Church for the ability to use their pavilion rather than having to get everything ready inside the bus. This is their schedule, as far as they know, through Sept 28, 2020 when everyone hopes in-person classes may begin.

From behind my mask I asked them to smile for the camera. From behind their masks, the bus drivers said, "we ARE smiling!" And so it is during this 2020 Coronavirus life of nothing normal. We are thankful for the communities working with the schools so that every child can have meals and access to Internet services for classes. - LW

When she’s not at her job as Director of Purchasing at Campbellsville University, Lisa Ferguson is working making her world in northern Adair County a better place for the family. One example shows her garden in this picture of the pretty, almost translucent Gladiola/Sword Lily blossoms among Zinnias.
