Story of the Inn

As the story goes,

Charles Lowery, the local banker, built the house in 1889. When he married in 1921, his wife informed him that the house was too small for entertaining. He expanded the house, of course.

Fast forward to 2005 when the farm property was being sold. The city of Wilmore didn’t want to see this historic home destroyed and asked Rudy and Pat Medlock if they would move and restore the home. They were happy to do so and were able to purchase property just across the street from the original site.

At the time,

the Medlocks were unsure about what to do with this historic home. However, after much prayer, the verse from Jeremiah, which says, “Go down to the potter’s house, and there I will give you my message,” came to mind.

Rudy, a former Asbury art professor and potter, and Pat decided to name it “The Potter’s Inn” and use it as a bed and breakfast. It was their prayer that the Inn would be a place where people could indeed hear from the Lord.
