The Forde Files No 70

Speaker Russell O'Quinn's touching address at the 23rd Annual Kiwanis Prayer Breakfast was a fitting kickoff to the May 1, 2014 National Day of Prayer.

O'Quinn shared his experiences as a test pilot and aviation entrepreneur after the participants at the early-morning event enjoyed the professionally catered breakfast by Linda Pettitt and her Mill Street Kitchen crew.

The breakfast, attended by civic leaders, featured readings and prayers by pastors Dr. Marvin Slifer of Mountain Bible Church, Bert Roper of the United Methodist Church and Brent Whitney of Country Oaks Baptist Church. Albertson's donated the flowers.
