    Big things can come from small packages, as Dee Caldwell found out recently.

    Caldwell leads a small group of pre-school children, ranging in ages 3 to 5-years-old at the Corinth Baptist Church.
    The six Mission Friends meet each Wednesday night and learn about missionaries and what they do. The children also learn how they can be missionaries in their community.
    Caldwell stressed that it was difficult to get preschoolers to understand the concept of missionaries serving in different countries.

    Punxsutawney Phil must have got his fur crossed.
    Pennsylvania’s most famous rodent did not see his shadow on Feb. 2, which means that spring should be on it’s way.
    The old wives tale is if the groundhog sees his shadow on Feb. 2, there’ll be six more weeks of winter. The absence of the shadow had people hoping spring was going to be sprung soon.

  • New water pipeline to benefit Grant customers

    The Kentucky Public Service Commission gave a thumbs up for Kentucky-American Water Company to build a pipeline that will connect its customers in it’s northern service area to the company’s plant on the Kentucky River in Owen County.
    Kentucky-American has about 3,900 customers in it’s Northern Division in Grant, Gallatin and Owen counties.
