A letter of gratitude from St. Paul’s Anglican Church

The Times-Tribune

CORBIN — I would like to take this opportunity to thank all of the kind individuals and businesses in the Tri-County area for their support with our home repair event. We truly live in a Christian community.  

A true spirit of giving was evident in all those who participated through their donations, discounts or manual labor.  They will be blessed by the Lord for their kindness.  

It takes many people and much organization to plan and implement such an undertaking. With God’s help we will be able to continue this outreach. The congregation of St. Paul’s Church would like to thank the following businesses and individuals for their help in a successful outreach to repair homes in the area.  

If I forgot to mention anyone, I am deeply sorry. It is not important that I know, but rest assured, God knows.  



• St. Stephen’s Church mission team

• Surplus Sales

• Poff Sanitation

• Homebuilders Supply

• Wiley Brown Northside Supply

• W.D. Bryant and Sons

• Tri-County Mobile Home Parts

• St. Paul’s Church family

• Claude Aker III

• Jonathan Hubbard

• Austin Powers

• Marquis McGee



Thank you all and God bless you!

Andy J. Dunn,

St. Paul’s Anglican Church

  • 0210 Patricia Turner Tom Jenson.jpg Call your representatives and ask them to support Senate Bill 87

    On Jan. 31, Brian and Martha Reeves, Larry Davenport, Mark Turner and Irene Roark and I joined other groups of Disability Rights advocates to teach Kentucky’s State Legislators in Frankfort about Newsline, an electronic information service for the blind and otherwise print-impaired Kentuckians.

  • Bootleggers use community outrage to stay in business

    I would like to weigh in on the issue of the legal sale of liquor in the city of Corbin. The way I see it, all the objections seem to be coming from the bootleggers through the churches.

  • Please stop killing other people’s pets

    Over the past three months, I have seen an increase of both cats and dogs that have died from being struck by drivers. What makes this such a sad thing is that most of the time the driver will pick up speed and aim for them just to hit and kill them or injure them badly enough that they will eventually die on their own or from other drivers who also enjoy running over them.

  • Alcohol devastates and destroys lives

    To Knox County Constable Carl Bolton, I forgive you. You were honest when you admitted you broke the law when you drove while under the influence of alcohol. You even acknowledged that you were blessed, as were others, by the police officer who did his job. Thank you for accepting responsibility for your actions.

  • A thank you to Rep. Jim Stewart

    In a time of budget cuts, time constraints and tight deadlines, it is unusual to find someone who takes the time to care about kids. However, on Jan. 12, at the Capitol, Rep. Jim Stewart welcomed a group of fifth- and sixth-grade students from Corbin Intermediate School and exchange students from Hong Kong’s Taoist Ching Chung Primary School.

  • What good could possibly come from alcohol sales?

    I want to start by saying that I was born and raised in Knox County. If you would have told me 15 years ago that legalizing alcohol in Barbourville and/or Corbin would be an issue, I would have told you that you were crazy.

  • A chaser for the booze debate

    Why not sell alcohol in Corbin? Here’s the straight and cordial rundown of the answers served by some readers: the Bible says don’t do it; minors will drink; more accidents, crime, “tragedy;” we banned smoking (Whaa?!); and economic analysis favors prohibition. Frankly, the debate has fermented past its prime. Have we not already heard the argument as it hops from one side to the other?

  • Waterways suffer too much pollution

    There is a lot of pollution in our streams and other major waterways. While pollution may not affect the taste of the water we drink, it will affect the health of people and animals.

  • Society forgetting how to interact outside of Facebook

    Our society today is too involved in social media such as Facebook and Twitter, and we are forgetting how to socialize in the real world. Does anyone really talk face-to-face anymore, or do they just socialize with each other online?

  • Alcohol increases chance of tragedy

    The debate of whether Corbin should be a “wet” town has gone on a long while. It seems more than a few people would be overjoyed if this became a reality. However, the possibility of underage drinking and drunk driving would spike quite a bit.
