(Clinton, KY - August 20, 2017) - The scene could have been a setting for a scene in a John Grisham novel. On a hot and humid night in mid August, rows of white folding chairs meandered across the lawn of the historic courthouse. On a Sunday evening in a very small town in a very small county, one hundred twenty men, women and children gathered on the courthouse lawn to sing, speak, pray and light candles in a service of healing and harmony.
