In October, we had several fantastic speakers, but if you missed Kathy Bohannon, you really missed an unbelievable speaker! She told some very entertaining true life stories of which most of us could relate.

Comments from Readers of the Times-Herald:
When I read your columns, I just laugh out loud! I just wanted you to know that I really appreciate the joy that your writing brings to me. It is so nice to read something written by a down-to-earth person!
I enjoy your writing in the Times. When I first noticed your newspaper columns, I was delighted to recognize you!
Thank you for your article on prayer. Remember my family as you pray and we will be praying for you.
Your story touched my heart! Thanks for sharing.
We appreciate so very much you coming to share with the ladies of Guyton Woman's Club. I really needed a laugh and you supplied it. Also, sharing your heart and love for Jesus was wonderful. SECC doesn't often sing the old hymns, so I really enjoyed it. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Beverly (Guyton Women's Club)
I just wanted to say thank you again. What a true blessing it was to me and so many others. Everyone commented on how great you were. I pray God continues touching your life and blessing you in a mighty way. He gave you the gift of making others laugh and relating to situations in life with a different outlook. HOW ENCOURAGING!!!

It was our pleasure to have Kathy Bohannon speak recently at our Savannah Baptist Association Senior Adult Picnic in Savannah. She geared her program to the interests of senior adults, and it was evident that they related. She shared freely from her heart regarding old sayings her mother and grandmother used, and we sang along during her closing of the old Carol Burnett theme song "I'm So Glad We Had This Time Together." I appreciate so much the way her subject matter was appropriate for Christian Senior Adults.
