NORTH LIBERTY– The First United Methodist Church in North Liberty is holding a fundraiser to beat hunger, poverty, and isolation in eastern Kentucky.
After watching a television special about the hidden hunger in America, church members contacted Homecoming Church in Inez, Ky. – the main distribution center for Kentucky's poorest citizens – to help unemployed parents and their children who are struggling to survive.
The church will begin collecting clothes, food, personal items and money. Our goal is to collect enough for a hundred $10 Wal-mart gift cards to distribute to these folks.

NORTH LIBERTY – It’s one day, one party, one cool time.
On Sunday, May 24, join the fun at this free family event for the entire community. Liberty Centre Blues & Barbecue, from 12 p.m. to 10 p.m., will take place rain or shine.
The free music by area bands kicks off at noon with acts such as Wise Fools, headed up by bassist Ben Soltau, and legendary blues musician Kevin “B.F.” Burt. Heating up the stage later in the evening is Bob Dorr and the Blue Band.
