| April 24, 2017

DSC_0157COSHOCTON – Members of the Roscoe United Methodist Church donated funds and their time to package more than 16,000 meals for the Rise Against Hunger program on Sunday afternoon, April 23 at the church. Pastor Dale Sutton said, “It feels great to do this. Our members were so generous in not only giving the money needed for the meals but we also have about 50 people here packing and having fun.” This marks the third year that the church has donated the funds for the meals and their time to package a balanced meal for the world’s population most in need in a high energy environment.

About the Author ()

I live with my beautiful wife Nancy on a small farm just outside Coshocton. We have been married for thirty two years and have two grown children, Jessica and Jacob. Jessica is married to Aaron Mencer and they are employed with Coshocton City Schools. Jacob is a sophomore at Kent State University. I graduated from River View High School, have a Bachelor’s Degree from North Carolina Wesleyan University and am actively involved with the Roscoe United Methodist Church, serve on several local committees and am a member of the Coshocton Kiwanis Club, having served as Past-President. I love reading, especially military thrillers, the Civil War and history in general. My goal is to write a novel. My wife and I are also AdvoCare distributors and encourage anyone wanting to lose weight, gain energy and better health to explore AdvoCare at our website; www.fortunes4advocare.com. I love the media field, innovative technology and have worked in newspapers for over 30 years – in fact, my first job was delivering newspapers. The Beacon is a dream made possible by the support of this community and a great team. I hope to continue serving Coshocton County for many years.
