On Friday, November 9th the annual One Place of the Shoals Volunteer Luncheon was held at First Methodist Church in Florence. One Place could not continue to exist without volunteers who provide valuable assistance to people who come to One Place for services. We are grateful for ALL of those who volunteer their time and/or services to One Place.

On October 31st, we traveled to Montgomery to attend the bill signing of Hollie’s Law, which makes it a capital murder to kill a parent in the presence of their child. This law is in honor of Hollie Newbury, who was murdered in front of her two small children in Lauderdale County in 2009. Those of us at One Place are honored to not only call the Newbury family our friends, but to also consider them as part of our family. We are thankful for their courage and patience througho
