LE'n'ERS TO THE EDITOR
Dear editor:
We are hearing a lot late-
ly from school boards who
have stepped up and made
a case both locally and
statewide for both restor-
ing and increasing funding
for schools.
So many different kinds
of groups make money
pitches for so many causes
that the temptation may
be to lump these school
boards in with the rest.
But that's not where they
should be. When mem-
bers of the Bath County
school board advocate for
better funding, they are
doing it for the children
of this community: for
the up-to-date books they
need for their classes, for
the after-school programs
that help struggling read-
ers, for new school buses
to safely transport them,
for buildings that offer the
physical settings needed to
learn, for course offerings
and technology that will
enable then to graduate to
a career or go on to post-
secondary education, and
on and on.
In other words, their only
vested interest is in the
children they were elected
to serve. LeVs remember
that during January, when
Kentucky observes School
Board Recognition Month.
LeVs also remember that
when Ms. Shelly Sanders,
Mrs. Barbara Razor, Mr.
Hurschell Rawlings, Mrs.
Connie Grimes, and Mrs.
Sandy Crouch champion
local schools and students,
it comes with a personal
cost. Your board members
may spend hours read-
ing materials and looking
over reports to prepare
for a single board meeting.
These laypeople take time
out of their schedules to
obtain training to become
knowledgeable about the
leadership, budgetary pro-

like an old, wounded dog
lying there. This is not to
mention all the shame and
guilt that Satan puts on you
for spending money that
you shouldn't have, or for
missing dinners and other
family events, with your
children and others.
You may say or think:
My child or someone else
I love is on drugs, and he's
helped cause it, and he
deserves all these things.
You may very well be right.
I realize now, that I did
damage and/or caused
harm to the community
and the people in it. God
has shown me that I have
more victims that I will
ever meet. I sincerely apol-
ogize for this, and ask for
your forgiveness.
You see, it's not about
me. I knew that there are
many people out there in
the same dark spiritual
prison that I was in. Some
of them are probably your
loved ones.
What is true freedom?
To me, it can only be found
in Christ. It's not some-
thing that's determined by
if you're detained some-
where or not. Paul wrote
2/3's of the New Testament
while he was. detained, but
there's no doubt that he
was FREE!
There is a spiritual side
to these drug addiction
problems. That's why the
same person goes through
2 or 3 rehabs and still uses
again. We've just been
treating the symptom, and
not the problem. The drug
use is just a symptom of a
deep-rooted, under-lying
problem that needs to be
dealt with. The root of
these problems is spiritual.
We need to get to the root.
If you would like to
write me concerning these
things or for other reasons,
please contact my Mom
(Nancy Wills), or my sister
(Lawanna Lu Butcher), to
get my address. I would be
glad to hear from you, and
try to help in any way I can.
As I sit in my dark jail
cell and write this at 5am,
my eyes are tearing up.
They are tears of compas-
sion. The only two purpos-
es of writing this are to try
to help others and to obey
God.
Hopefully, one day, I will
return to Bath County. I
hope that you will allow me
to work with some of you
to help with these drug
addiction problems. May-
be together we can reach
others, so they and their
families will not have to
go through these things -
for them to be free.
To all the people who
help and sponsor the
church programs, drug
classes and rehabs - keep
up the good work and
may God bless you!
To all the ones who
have loved ones addicted
- please don't shut them
out. I know you're inno-
cent, and you've prob-
ably been hurt and done
wrong, but please reach
out to them. They are in a
dark prison of their own,
and they need your love
and support.
To those of you who are
addicted: You know from
reading this article that I
know and I've been where
you're at. I know the way
out! Please contact me.
God loves you and so do I.
You have a choice!
To my Mom, sister,
children, other family and
friends - when you see
my picture on the front
page, saying that I was ar-
rested, don't let Satan put
that shame and guilt on
you. Rejoice, thank God
I'm in that column and
not the obituary column.
Thank God I'm alive and
I'm free. I'm sorry for the
hurt and pain I've caused
you.
I will continue to pray
for my county and the
people in it - for God to
heal the broken-hearted
and set the captives free.
You may never see me
again, or you may see me
again soon. Either way is
alright, because wherever
I'm at, I AM in CHRIST,
and I AM FREE. For you
see, I wasn't arrested, but
I was RESCUED!
May God Bless Us All,
Terry C. Wills
