Community Soup Kitchen

First Presbyterian Church of Florence, located at 224 East Mobile Street, will offer a Community Soup Kitchen at Noon Friday February 6th. This will begin a six month ministry for the downtown congregation.

Anyone desiring a free meal is invited. Also, the church will offer referrals to various local agencies for those who currently need assistance with utility bills or child care.

It's unfortunate that such a need exists in this area, but kudos to the church for stepping forward to fill it. Our best wishes in this endeavor.


What's up with this: The town of Red Bay is losing several physicians due to budget cuts in state agencies--highly unusual for an area in Roger Bedford's district.
