Owsley Kentucky

Scott Walker March 17, 2014

I had an amazing, eye-opening, interesting and somewhat sad trip to Owsley, County KY. The poverty rate in the county is the HIGHEST in the United States. I headed up there with a friend and we randomly knocked on doors of trailers, buses, and homes and handed out food to those in dire need. We also gave a box of student bibles to a local woman in Boonseville, KY who runs a Christian outreach center. She told us that meth is a major battle for them.
