An explosion and resulting fire in the home of John and Brenda Vaughn resulted in severe injuries to Mrs. Vaughn and her two-year-old daughter, Becky. Pastor Vaughn was completing his seventh month as pastor of Faith Baptist Church in Greenville, South Carolina when the accident happened. Mrs. Vaughn sustained third-degree burns over 65% of her body in an attempt to rescue her daughter Becky from what would have been certain death. Her two-year-old sustained third-degree burns over 95% of her body. Neither were expected to live through this tragedy.
Seven months later, Mrs. Vaughn was released from the South Carolina Burn Center in Charleston, South Carolina. Seven months after Mrs. Vaughn’s release, the Shriner’s Burns Institute in Cincinnati, Ohio, allowed Becky to return home. Becky is one of only a few children to survive an almost total body burn along with its many complications. With recuperation as the primary concern, two years quickly passed, and the issue of Becky’s schooling surfaced. Her father began to search for a school that would be able to minister to Becky’s special physical needs as well as her academic and spiritual needs. At the time, the Vaughn’s two older children were enrolled in a private Christian school where academics were presented in the context of a biblical world view. They set out to find such a school for Becky. Two of the three needs could have been met in the schools in the Greenville area. However, accommodations were not available to meet her special physical needs. After much prayer, consideration and counsel from individuals with relevant backgrounds, Pastor Vaughn began Hidden Treasure Christian School in August of 1981.
The school needs your help. On Thursday, November 14th, Hidden Treasures Christian School will be hosting their first Banquet of Light to raise needed funds to support their mission.

Grady Ansel King, Sr., 99, passed away peacefully at his daughter's home Wednesday, June 3, 2020. He was born August 27, 1920 in Pickens County, a son of Robert and Texieanna Alexander King.
Grady served in the Civilian Conservation Corp (CCC) as a teenager, serving at both Jones Gap and Parris Mountain. He joined the US Army and proudly served his country during World War II. Oh, the stories he could tell. When he finished his time there, he became a sales rep for Keebler Bakery.

In a Facebook post last week, Congressman Jeff Duncan wrote about the fight against the coronavirus our country is facing:
"We cannot, however, let these measures be more harmful than the virus itself. Let me be abundantly clear when I say that: the virus is real, it is novel, it is a threat, and it is highly contagious. But at the same time, we can’t wage war against our economy while we fight off the coronavirus on another front. We MUST handle both. Economic devastation and health devastation are equally as important for us to confront."
The Congressman from SC's 3rd District is right!! This may be the week that we start seeing smart steps in reopening our country. Take a minute to listen to Congressman Duncan's commonsense approach to this crisis we find ourselves in as he joined me on the show this morning.
