Johnny Dunbar, the 69-year-old pastor of Heritage Hope Church of God in Somerset, Kentucky, is gaining popularity on the internet as the Appalachian PawPaw after a TikTok by Nikalie Monroe went viral. Heritage Hope was one of ten houses of worship that responded with an immediate offer to help when Nikalie gave them a call. Johnny invited Nikalie as a guest in his church recently.

We found a report that shared all sides of the story from Taylor Alesia on YouTube. You can find that video, and her channel, here.
