October 20, 11 a.m. in Jeff Wall Hall. Join us for “Tales from the Past”, presented by Michael Decker and Jenny Ivey, followed by a catered lunch. Topics covered are:
- A Righteous Man: The story of a Knoxville boy whose quiet heroism, born of his deep faith, was recognized many years after his death.
- Tennessee’s own Alvin C. York, who went from being a hell-raiser in his youth to a devout Christian who applied to be a conscientious objector, then became one of the most-decorated heroes of World War I and ultimately a tireless advocate for education in his native Fentress County.
Make your reservation online at www.cookevillefumc.org/YAH by noon Monday, October 17, for a lunch of chicken and dressing casserole, oven roasted potatoes, chess pie, salad and rolls.
