Churches Plan Community Christmas Eve Services By Francine Fulton
Local churches have joined together to offer community Christmas Eve services that will be held on Tuesday, Dec. 24, in the auditorium at Coatesville Area Senior High School (CASH). Services, which will feature music, a Christmas story for children and a message, will be offered at 3, 4:30 and 6 p.m. Organizing the event are Eric McAdams, lead pastor at Coatesville Bible Fellowship; Scott Feather, lead pastor at Gateway Church in Parkesburg; and Dwayne Walton, discipleship pastor at Providence Church Coatesville. Walton is also the director of The Parkesburg POINT Youth Center. The pastors said that CASH is the ideal venue to hold the services since it is centrally located and has plenty of parking “Our first idea was the high school because we knew the place was large
enough to accommodate (attendees),” said McAdams, noting that the CASH auditorium can hold up to 750 people. “We don’t just want our church congregation to come. We wanted a place large enough to hold the community.” “The other thing is that the high school is a safe, neutral location,” Feather added. During the services, church choirs will sing familiar Christmas carols and worship songs. Lyrics to the music will be projected on a screen so that people in the audience will be able to sing along. Walton will offer the message. The theme of the message and the service is “Come and See.” “Throughout the Christmas Eve services, we are inviting anybody and everybody to come and see what God reveals of Himself through the person of Jesus Christ,” said McAdams. “The whole service will be an hour long. We will sing together, and the See Christmas Eve Services pg 3

Honey Brook Presbyterian Church, 4331 Horseshoe Pike (Route 322), Honey Brook, will present its fourth annual Polar Express event and craft show on Saturday, Dec. 14, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. In addition to the craft sale, the day’s activities will include a display of model trains, along with food and beverages and showings of “The Polar Express.” The craft show will feature more than 20 vendors offering a variety of goods, such as pet items, jewelry, knitted and crocheted items and handmade soaps. “We will have Swedish weaving designs on hand towels, handmade quilted items and homemade canned items like jams and salsa,” noted church member Gwynne Sweatlock, one of the event organizers. “We will have a small section of some church member-made items.” The Polar Express event originally started with church members making and selling crafts. In 2017, outside vendors were invited to participate. Each vendor is asked to donate one item for a silent auction. “There will be gift baskets that the church has put together offered for sale,” Sweatlock pointed out. “We will also have homemade soup and chili, which you can buy to take home.” The Rev. Bill Wisneski, pastor, and the Right Track Bible Study and Model Railroad Club will set up the trains. “We have six or seven different layouts, and they are different sizes,” noted Sweatlock. The Right Track Bible Study and Model Railroad Club generally meets on the second Thursday of the month from 6:30 to 8 p.m. The group is open to people age 12 and over. For more informa-

Open House from pg 1 explained Sister Brenda McHugh, site director. She said that the building that is being used as the Gingerbread House once served as the mansion’s caretaker’s house. “It’s a two-room house with an old stove, and it was built in 1905,” she explained. “We’ve only used it for birthday parties after pool rentals and occasionally for Bible camp. It is an underutilized building. Anything we get from the donations will help to pay for updates like electric and flooring. Down the road, we hope it will be a little café.” Tours of the mansion will be offered throughout the day. There will be a fee charged per person. Children age 12 and under will receive a discount. Although the mansion is open to the public for tours only two times per year, St. Mary of Providence Retreat Center functions as a retreat facility year-round, where people of all denominations spend time praying and focusing on their spiritual needs. In addition to the religious retreat center, St. Mary’s features four buildings that house senior citizens. On the day of the open house, visitors will enter through the solarium room, where there will be Christmas music play-
ing. On display will be various gift baskets that people may win through a random drawing. “The senior citizens have all participated in making the baskets,” said Sister Brenda. Baskets will include a Spa Day Basket, a Movie Night Basket and a Breakfast Basket with pancake mix and syrup. The first and second floors of the mansion will be decorated for the season with greens, Nativity scenes, lights, garland, poinsettias and more. “We will have several Christmas trees,” said volunteer Sara Anderson. “The octagonal porch (will be decorated), and each of the Juliet balconies will be done - east and west.” There will also be Christmas trees in the Gingerbread House, the Green Room and the solarium. Historical items, postcards, written histories and a CD of photographs will be offered for sale in the solarium. “(The CD) is a slideshow that tells the history of the mansion - all in photos,” Sister Brenda said. Weather permitting, visitors will be able to walk the 40-acre grounds and view the outdoor decorations as well. St. Mary of Providence Retreat Center is located at 227 Isabella Road, Elverson. Until the mansion’s elevator is repaired, only the first floor of the building is handicapped-accessible. For more information or directions, readers may call 610-942-4166, visit www.stmary ofprov-pa.org or search for “St. Mary of Providence Center” on Facebook.
The public will be able to tour the Langoma mansion in Elverson during a Christmas open house on Dec. 14 at St. Mary of Providence Retreat Center. DOWNINGTOWN - EXTON EDITION

SALT from pg 1 SALT Performing Arts will present “Matilda the Musical” at the SALT theater, located in the West Pikeland Township Building, 1645 Art School Road, Chester Springs. Performances will continue on Friday, Dec. 13 from 7 to 9:30 p.m.; on Saturday, Dec. 14, from 2 to 4:30 p.m. and from 7 to 9:30 p.m.; and on Sunday, Dec. 15, from 3 to 5:30 p.m. Inspired by the 1988 children’s novel “Matilda” by Roald Dahl, the Tony Awardwinning musical has a book by Dennis Kelly and original songs by Tim Minchin. “Matilda” tells the story of a little girl with extraordinary powers who escapes her poor family situation by reading library books and creating her own stories. When her parents send her to school at Crunchem Hall, she meets the hostile and wicked headmistress Miss Trunchbull. With the help of her friends and her kindhearted teacher, Miss Honey, Matilda is determined to
improve her life by taking a stand and creating her own destiny. “With everyone looking for fun and different holiday outings, ‘Matilda’ perfectly fits the bill as a memory-building, family-friendly activity,” said Lauren McComas, SALT president and artistic director, noting that the play features special effects, entertaining choreography and outrageous costumes. The characters and cast members include the following: Matilda - Molly Kent; Matilda understudy - Avery Ahlmer; Miss Trunchbull - Stephen Fisher; Miss Honey - Emily Merow; Mr. Wormwood Zachary Zalis; Mrs. Wormwood - Alessandra Fanelli; Bruce - Jack Dugan and Jackson Ogden; Lavender - Abby Leiboff and Aliyeh Ashlie; Noelle - Avery Ahlmer and Zofia Mecca; Erica - Frances Foy and Lily Jennings; Amanda - Eloise McComas and Lulu Spinelli; Alice - Sophia Sims and Sophia Kogay; Hortensia - Chloe

Attendees will also be invited to assemble personal hygiene kits for people in need. All the supplies will be provided. “We are going to be setting up stations where we will have items like toothbrushes and toothpaste and washcloths that families can put together (in boxes) and we will give them to organizations in our community (for distribution),” said Feather. “They can also write a note to the person and include it in the
bag as a Christmas gift.” Walton said that the event is a way that churches of different denominations can work together as a service to the community. “Our love for one another is greater than our differences, and we do feel that God has called us to be a blessing to the community,” Walton stated. CASH is located at 1445 Lincoln Highway (Business Route 30), Coatesville.

When they come back to their seats - depending on their age it might be hard to sit for an hour - it will give them something to do and it will be a take-home (gift).” The services will end with the lighting of electric candles and the singing of “Silent Night.” A freewill offering will be received
during the services to benefit those with medical bills. “We as a community would like to take care of the medical debt (for residents of) Chester, Montgomery, Berks and Delaware counties,” explained Feather. “We are working with an organization called RIP Medical Debt. In those counties, there is $1.9 million in medical debt, which (represents) money that a person or a family owes for medical treatment they received that has gone to collections. By

With the approach of winter in Pennsylvania come freezing temperatures, snow, and ice. The U.S. Postal Service is asking customers to help letter carriers deliver mail safely by clearing snow and ice from sidewalks, stairs, and mailboxes. The Postal Service will make every reasonable, safe attempt to deliver mail during and after a storm. However, wintry precipitation can make mail delivery dangerous and slow. Maintaining a clear path to the mailbox - including steps, porches, walkways, and street approach - will help keep letter carriers safe and help them continue to offer consistent delivery service. All customers should keep the approach to and exit from their mailbox or mail slot free of ice and snow. Customers receiving door delivery should make sure their sidewalks, steps, and porches are clear. Customers receiving curbside or rural delivery should remove snow piles, such as those left by snow plows, to keep access to their mailboxes clear for letter carriers; mailboxes should be cleared sufficiently on both sides. Curbside or rural boxes should also be kept clear of vehicles, trashcans, and other objects. Delivery service may be delayed or curtailed whenever streets or walkways present hazardous conditions for letter carriers or when snow is plowed against mailboxes. Delivery will be curtailed only after careful consideration and as a last resort. Delivery of curtailed mail will be attempted the next delivery day. Blue collection boxes also need to be kept clear for customers to deposit their mail and for the Postal Service to collect the mail for delivery. Residents and businesses with collection boxes near their property are asked to keep them clear of snow and ice.

at Coatesville and Lebanon VA Medical Centers and at the Southeastern Veterans’ Center in Spring City. Each box will be wrapped and decorated in memory of the charity’s namesake, David Turner Jr., who died at the age of 20 on Dec. 16, 2009. At the time of his death, David was employed at the Coatesville VA. His family members started the all-volunteer David’s Drive 831 charity to benefit veterans by providing much-needed goods and services. The 831 symbolizes the phrase “I love you,” because the phrase contains eight letters and three words that have one meaning. Because of David’s love of Christmas, the family started the Gift Wrapping Extravaganza in 2010. “Hard to believe it’s the 10th year, but I must say it brings us comfort knowing that David is making a positive difference in people’s lives,” said David Turner Sr., founder and president of DD831. On the evening of the gift wrapping event, volunteers will fill each box with 16 items, including a music CD, a travel mug, socks, a calendar, games, toiletries and snacks. After the boxes are filled in an assembly line fashion, they will be sent to a table for gift wrapping. Girl Scouts and other youths will draw pictures on the boxes and write personal messages to the veterans. In 2018, the charity received a thank you letter from a veteran at the Southeastern Veterans’ Center. “Something so simple can bring so much joy,” the letter stated in part. “Although I got this package a couple of days before Christmas, I didn’t open it until Christmas Day. Tears of joy streamed down my face knowing the care and thoughts that went into this endeavor.” The Gift Wrapping Extravaganza is one of DD831’s many efforts that benefit veterans. The charity, which has a motto of “Helping Veterans Because We Should,”
organizes coat, underwear and clothing drives year-round. It also offers assistance to previously homeless veterans by helping them with transitional housing and by purchasing new beds and household items for them. Since the organization’s formation, Turner reported that DD831 has provided 52 new beds, sponsored a POW/MIA luncheon and luncheons for women veterans, constructed a playset for children who visit Coatesville VA residents and donated 40 new bikes to veterans and their children, among other efforts. Events sponsored by DD831 have included concerts, parades, a performance by a magician and a trip to see a preseason Eagles football game. Thanks to David’s Drive, eight veterans, accompanied by support staff from the VA, took part in a fishing trip on Sept. 30 on the Chesapeake Bay in Maryland. The charity has also donated two automated external defibrillator (AED) devices, as David’s cause of death was a suspected heart arrhythmia. One was placed at Triple Fresh Market in Coatesville, where David was once employed, and the second was placed at the Dowingtown VFW Post 845. Turner said that the various projects not only provide comfort to his family but also keep the memory of his son alive. He also credits the community for their financial donations. “Your support has made it possible for our family to memorialize David and it has given meaning to his life; that means the world to us,” Turner stated in a letter of gratitude to DD831 supporters. “Thank you for giving David’s short life meaning and honoring his wish of helping veterans. We are proud of David and we promise to continue his vision.” For more information, readers may visit www.davidsdrive831.org or www.facebook.com/davids.drive.

Road Projects Receive Funding State Sen. Andy Dinniman recently announced that four transportation and road traffic and safety improvement projects in Chester County will receive more than $2.5 million in state funding. The projects, which are funded through PennDOT’s Multimodal Transportation Fund, were approved by the Commonwealth Finance Authority. They are as follows: $1 million for Schuylkill Township for the Route 23 sidewalk project; $735,812 for Oxford Borough for the Safe Routes to School project; $119,389 for West Bradford Township for lighting for Stargazers Roundabout; and $730,000
for East Fallowfield Township for repairs to Mortonville Road. Funding for the projects comes through Act 89 of 2013, Pennsylvania’s Comprehensive Transportation Funding Plan, which increased transit funding and established dedicated multimodal funding for aviation, passenger rail, rail freight, port, and bicycle-pedestrian projects. Dinniman said that the latest projects were another example of the ability of investments in transportation infrastructure to help drive both transportation safety and economic growth.
