Kiwanis members will hold their annual Prayer Luncheon during their Tuesday, May 23rd meeting, and honor the community’s “Kiwanis Spiritual Leader of the Year.”

And, Kiwanis members are continuing to man the Miller Media Group Drive-Thru Donation Days this Saturday to benefit the Taylorville Food Pantry.  The public is invited to donate non-perishable food and monetary donations those days from 9am to noon.
