Christy Burnett responds to a smooch from “Poke Chop” the pig after Christy’s class raised the most money for an offering during Vacation Bible School last week at Batesville First United Methodist Church. Children had contributed to a fund to support Camp Lake Stephens, with motivation that their teacher could be required to kiss a pig. Judd Gentry handled the pig while Lacey Gentry directed the procedure. Squeals were abundant from both the children and the pig. The Panolian photo by Rita How
