Angel Food Ministry needs donations for Christmas project

The Angel Food Ministry has now been in operation at Dorthae Pentecostal Church for a year. Each month we help families with their grocery bills by selling boxes of food for $30, each box containing approximately $70 worth of food.

This year for Christmas, it is our desire to purchase boxes of food for the underprivileged families unable to afford the food. This will be for the Tri-County area of Corbin, covering West Knox, South Laurel and Whitley counties.

In order to do this, we will need donations covering the boxes of food. Our goal is to purchase approximately 600 boxes to distribute to the needy people of the three mentioned counties.

Any organizational or personal contributions will be welcome.

To make a donation or to learn more about the Angel Food Ministry, please call 523-5572 or 524-2019.

To those organizations and individuals who have already contributed, God bless you, and thank you.

Charles Prewitt,

Angel Food Ministry

  • Memory of Bark Camp should be revived

    I am the grandson of George H. Earls who was born in Bark Camp in Whitley County in 1857. His father, Thomas Earls, settled there in 1812. My father, Rev. Maynard 0. Earls, was raised in Whitley County. The town of Bark Camp Mills disappeared during the Great Depression. I’d like to revive its memory. I am also a published author, historian and professor at Wilmington College in Ohio.
