Local Teenager Participates In LLS Fundraising Effort By Francine Fulton
Even though he is only 14 years old, Logan Conrad, a freshman at Elizabethtown Area High School, has already learned important leadership skills such as event planning, public speaking and multitasking as a candidate for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) 2019 Students of the Year program. As part of the seven-week initiative, which began on Jan. 13, select high school students from around the country participate in a fundraising competition to benefit LLS.

Fastnacht Tradition Enters 95th Year By Dayna M. Reidenouer
In preparation for the Lenten season of reflection, which runs from Ash Wednesday until Easter and during which people often give up certain foods or luxuries, members and supporters of Holy Trinity Catholic Church, 409 Cherry St., Columbia, will fry up a surfeit of fastnachts, just as they have been doing since 1924. “My mother used to save the potato water (from cooking dinner) and bring it for the dough to help it rise,” shared Kathleen Lutz, the head of the group that rolls out the yeast-raised pastries. With the development of modern yeast and the introduction of food safety laws, church members no longer collect and donate the starch-rich liquid. The rest of the process is still much the same, resulting in a rich, tasty treat. “They’re delicious,” Lutz remarked. “A group comes in over the weekend to See Fastnacht Fundraiser pg 7

of maintaining covered bridges and $5,000 to HACC, Central Pennsylvania’s Community College, for student scholarships. The scholarship program grew out of the 450-member club’s annual Covered Bridge Ride. The ride, which dates back 40 years, was originally just for club members. “We expanded (the ride) to include visitors because of the great place Lancaster County is,” said Mullineaux. Originally, the intention of the ride was to raise funds to augment the club’s budget, but in the 1990s, Bicycling magazine listed the ride as the best in Pennsylvania. “Attendance exploded,” said Mullineaux. “One year, we hit 4,000 (riders).” The ride is now restricted to 2,300 participants. It begins at the HACC Lancaster campus, 1641 Old Philadelphia Pike, Lancaster. Several routes will be offered. The 62-mile met-
ric century route will head north to New Holland, Farmersville, Terre Hill, and Reamstown, before turning south to return to HACC. Seven covered bridges will be part of the route. Additional routes include a 31-mile course with four covered bridges and a 15-mile ride with two covered bridges. One option adds a loop at Stevens that travels 32 difficult miles for riders who wish to complete a more challenging ride.

“We have given out $350,000,” said John Mullineaux of the Lancaster Bicycle Club (LBC). “The single biggest (amount) was for municipal and EMS (emergency medical services) bike patrols. We’ve purchased bicycles and equipment (for those organizations).” Mullineaux added that Lancaster police and police stations in a number of county boroughs have received funds from the club to purchase bikes. LBC is currently seeking applicants so that the club can give away another $25,000 in grants. Grants are available to nonprofit organizations, government agencies, and schools. The application form may be found at https://lancasterbikeclub.net/ grant-program. Completed applications are due to the club by Friday, Feb. 15. “It is a simple application process,” said Mullineaux. “We ask for a short description of what they will do (with the funds) and how much they want.” Mullineaux said that the application form also asks what the organization will do if it does not receive the grant. “I pull all the applications together and do a presentation for the board, and they (usually) vote up or down,” said Mullineaux, who added that sometimes the amount of the grant request is modified by the group. Those receiving grants must initiate their projects dur-
ing the 2019 calendar year. The grants were first given in 1990. Over the years, the types of requests that have been granted have varied. “We have spent money on bicycle advocacy,” recalled Mullineaux. “We have spent more than $30,000 on bicycle racks.” Mullineaux said many bicycle racks seen in Lancaster city and around the county were provided by the club. The club has also purchased road signs and bicycles for elementary school gym classes that were used to teach bicycle safety. Mullineaux said that one of the most unusual awards was to the mural project at the Northwest Lancaster County River Trail near Columbia. A part of the 250-foot-long mural will show a bicycle rider on the trail. In addition to the $25,000 grants, LBC also donates $5,000 to the county to help defray costs

The Zimmerman Center for Heritage, 1706 Long Level Road, Wrightsville, will offer a lecture on Wednesday, Feb. 13, at 6:30 p.m. Doors will open at 6 p.m. Dr. Christian Keller will present “A Powder Horn’s Story.” On a chance visit to an antique shop, Keller came across a powder horn that once belonged to his ancestor Jacob Dritt. The find led Keller to search for the story behind it. Dritt served in the American Revolution as captain of a “flying camp” and was captured by the British Army during its assault on Fort Washington. After the war, Dritt purchased his namesake mansion, now home to Susquehanna Heritage’s Zimmerman Center.
Keller is professor of history in the Department of National Security and Strategy at the U.S. Army War College in Carlisle. His talk will place Dritt’s experiences within the greater context of what was happening in Pennsylvania and adjoining colonies during the early years of the War of Independence. Dritt’s powder horn will be on display, as well as an early copy of a sketch of Dritt drawn by 19th-century folk artist Lewis Miller. There is a fee, and early registration is encouraged. Tickets will not be available at the door. To register, readers may visit www.susquehannaheritage.org/ events or call the Zimmerman Center at 717-252-0229, ext. 7.

A Woman’s Concern from pg 1 A Christmas postcard sent out by A Woman’s Concern shows a photo of double purple doors decorated with holiday wreaths and an “open” sign. “Our purple doors mean ‘love, compassion, and support,’” said Jill Hartman, executive director of A Woman’s Concern, which relocated from Duke Street in Lancaster city to 1102 Millersville Pike, Lancaster, in July 2018. “ We painted the doors purple so our clients could find us.” These clients are the more than 600 women who benefit from A Woman’s Concern services each year. Those services include pregnancy testing, limited ultrasounds, and education on healthy relationships, pregnancy, parenting, and more. “We create a loving, compassionate, nonjudgmental environment for clients, so they get all the support they need,” explained Hartman. The move nearly quadrupled the space that A Woman’s Concern could utilize, and staff and volunteers are planning to offer more services in the future by partnering and collaborating with other community organizations. Among those services are a program called Redefined, which will aid in healing for women, and a fatherhood mentoring program called The Fatherhood Journey. Matthew Neff of Family of Restoration Ministries has already run a fatherhood workshop, and Neff will soon become the first volunteer male client advocate for A Woman’s Concern. “I think that will make a huge difference in reaching the boyfriends, fiancés, and husbands,” added Laura Kline, marketing and communications director. Other services that the organization will offer will include working with a local market to provide dietitians to teach prenatal and postnatal nutrition to clients. In addition, a volunteer will help the organization expand lactation services, and the Knights of Columbus has funded a part-time medical

Matmen Focus on the Road to Hershey With the 2018-2019 wrestling season fading in the distance, it is now time to begin the second season of the school year, the road to Hershey. While there are still team tournaments to compete in, the postseason is more exclusive to the individual wrestler. Last week marked the beginning of the long haul to the March PIAA championships as the L-L League held its annual tournament Friday, January 25 and Saturday, January 26. While Donegal did not have any champions crowned, there were a few successful Indians on the mat during the weekend competition. Most notably was Garrett Blake who placed second at 160 pounds after a 6-0 decision loss to Conestoga Valley’s Josh MacNamara. Blake worked his way there beginning with a 13-6 first round decision over Kole Marley of Penn Manor. With that win, Blake advanced to the quarterfinals where he matched up with Northern Lebanon’s Ethan Walmer. He was able put Walmer to his back late in the second and held him there for the fall 4:56 into the bout. Blake then met up with Lancaster Catholic’s Jeffery Harley in the semifinal round and rolled right through with a decisive 12-4 major decision which in turn set up his finals
matchup with MacNamara. At 106-pounds, Ethan Herr and Will Small, at 170, also scored success with both Indians taking third place in their respective weight class. Herr claimed a 17-2 tech fall over Lebanon’s Brian Santiago in the first round, followed up with a pin of Caleb Banzoff from Penn Manor 42 seconds into the second period but then lost a close 7-6 decision to eventual runner up Micah Sams of Manheim Township. Once in the consolation semifinals, Herr decisioned Annville’s Ethan Missimer to advance to the consi finals with Hempfield’s Gio Luciano where he earned a 9-1 major decision and third place. Likewise, Small began his postseason with a first period fall over Timothy Freddrick at the 1:40 mark of the bout in the first round and then was a recipient of an injury forfeit when L-S’s Connor Penry could not continue in the tournament. That set up a semifinal bout with Northern Lebanon’s Ethan Herb where the eventual 170-pound champion got the fall in 3:28, sending Small into the consis. He then blasted through Octorara’s Gavin Camerote with a fall at the 1:28 mark and followed up with a 7-6 decision victory over David Hnasko from Warwick for the bronze. Two Indians claimed seventh place honors as Dylan Bowers worked his
way back through the consis from a quarterfinal loss at 126 and earned a fall over Trenton Brubaker in 1:56 and Joseph Fox, wrestling at 145 pounds also worked back from a loss in the quarters to earn a 15-0 tech fall over Alan Perez of Garden Spot. Mason Ober also came back from a first round loss to Manheim’s Austin Sauder to take eighth place at 152. BASKETBALL Donegal’s boys’ woes continued on the hard wood as the Indians winless streak was extended to 19 with a 66-50 loss to ELCO on Friday, January 25 and a 64-49 defeat against Susquehannock the next day. Patrick Summer’s 21 points, including four three-pointers, led the Indians but was negated by Braden Bohannon’s 27 as ELCO opened a 28-15 lead in the first quarter and then slammed the door on any hopes of a comeback by holding Donegal to only five points in the fourth. Ryan Zuch tallied 15 for host Donegal and was perfect at the line with a 2-2 effort. Trailing 42-24 at the half, the Indians pulled to within eight points to start the final frame when they outscored the Raiders 21-11 in the third to make the score 53-45, but could not muster enough offense to close things out. Jacob Shoemaker scored five, Reed Licopoli had four, Logan Nauman scored two and Conor
Wilken put up one for Donegal. Against Susquehannock, Donegal led 32-28 heading into the third quarter, but a 20-7 run by the visitors during that frame stole any momentum that they might have had and placed them in a hole too deep to climb out of. Zuch (15), Licopoli (12), Shoemaker (10), and Summers (10) paced Donegal while Dalton Mullhausen added two in
the losing effort. The girls only had one game, a 78-59 loss to the Raiders, on January 25th, while twice they were postponed against Octorara due to weather conditions. That loss marked the fourth in a row for the Indians, despite a 32-point outing by Kiera Baughman. In a thrilling third quarter shoot out, the two teams combined for
53 points as the Indians tallied 23 in an attempt to overcome a 27-20 halftime deficit. Unfortunately, the Raiders also heated up and out shot Donegal with 30 of their own to open up a 57-43 lead that the Indians could not challenge. Cheyenne Livelsberger had 10 for Donegal followed by Summer Steffy (8), Maddie Gohn (4), Morgan Creek (4), and Alexandra Daly (1).

United Way of Lancaster County is once again offering the Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) Program to prepare federal, state and local income tax returns for free. United Way of Lancaster County’s VITA Program is one of more than 12,000 VITA programs across the country that the IRS relies on to help people file their taxes every year, completely free of charge. Last year, United Way of Lancaster County’s IRS-certified volunteers helped more than 10,000 individuals and families in Lancaster County complete their tax returns. VITA saved Lancaster County residents more than $2.7 million in tax prep fees, and more than $12.4 million in refunds went into their bank accounts. VITA provides free tax preparation services, including federal, state and local returns, to taxpayers who make less than $62,000 and who live, work or go to school in Lancaster County. The volunteer tax preparers at United Way’s free tax preparation sites understand the 2018 TCJA (tax reform). They go through at least 40 hours of training and are certified by the IRS. The purpose of the program is to provide customers with high-quality, professional, personal service by trained volunteers who are equipped to identify tax refund opportunities for customers. The IRS will delay issuing refunds for taxpayers claiming the EITC and ACTC until Friday, Feb. 15. The law is designed to help the IRS find and stop fraud. However, the IRS notes that these refunds likely will not arrive in bank accounts or on debit cards until late February.

For the Parenthood Plunge Challenge, there will be a contest for guests to vote on what famous parents the couple will
dress as, including Herman and Lily Munster, Ricky and Lucy Ricardo, and Popeye and Olive. Supporters can donate through www.gofundme.com/kevin-and -sammi-adoption and put their vote in the comment section. Separate costs have been set for the dinner for individuals, for couples, and for children age 10 and under. Children age 3 and under may eat for free. A family discount is available, as well. Preregistration and payment are appreciated by Friday, Feb. 15, although guests may also pay at the door. Payments may be made by cash or check or through the GoFundMe page.

event were also donated to LLS. He also held three additional fundraisers at local restaurants during which a portion of the proceeds from food and beverage sales was donated to LLS and credited to Logan’s campaign. Logan was nominated to be part of the Students of the Year program by his neighbor Shaun McCoach, who was a candidate in LLS’ Man of the Year Campaign last year. Similar to Students of the Year, Man or Woman of the Year recognition is given to the person who raises the most money for LLS in a 10week period. Although he was nominated, Logan said he was not sure that he would participate. However, he quickly became committed after hearing more about the program. “We were invited to an LLS workshop in Harrisburg in November 2018 for candidates from central Pennsylvania to learn about the campaign and some skills we might use,” he explained. “I used that as a deciding factor, and I decided that I wanted to run.” Logan said he was moved by the speakers at the workshop. “While we were there, (we heard from) a few speakers who had cancer,” Logan stated. “While they were talking, I realized how lucky I was because no one close to me had cancer or blood cancer specifically. A lot of people are not as lucky as me, and I wanted to give back.” Proceeds from the cornhole tournament and the restaurant fundraisers were tallied by the LLS of Central Pennsylvania in Camp Hill. Candidates are not allowed to reveal how much they raised at various events until the end of the program on Saturday, March 2. “All candidates and their teams are invited to a gala on March 2 at Historic Acres of Hershey,” Logan said, noting that he will be in attendance at the

MERCHANDISER - Donegal Edition -
New Reporting Tool Available A tool for reporting suspicious activity surrounding the prescribing or dispensing of prescription drugs, including opioids, has been created. The tool will be available on the attorney general’s website at https://pennsylvania.pmp aware.net, on the Department of Health’s website at www.health .pa.gov, and within the state’s Prescription Drug Monitoring Program (PDMP) site for registered users at https://pennsylvania.pmp aware.net/. By making the attorney general’s suspicious activity reporting tool available on the PDMP and the Department of Health’s website, another layer of safety is added for the responsible prescribing of controlled substances such as opioids. The illegal diversion of
prescription pain pills from doctors’ offices and pharmacies is contributing to the opioid epidemic across the commonwealth, but diversion activity is hard to identify and even harder to investigate. The new reporting tool, which is available online to everyone, allows people to anonymously give the attorney general’s office detailed information about suspected diversion so criminal activity can be better investigated and prosecuted. The attorney general’s Office of Diversion created the suspicious activity report form, a web-based form, for health care providers and the general public to report suspicious activity involving prescription medication. Things that might be reported include
fraudulent, stolen, or altered prescriptions; a suspicious doctor or pharmacy; or an individual obtaining prescription drugs for any purpose other than the treatment of an existing medical condition, such as for purposes of misuse, abuse, or diversion. Completed reports are assigned to the appropriate attorney general’s office investigator in the region where the suspicious activity is alleged to have taken place. Those with an active Pennsylvania professional license that permits them to prescribe or dispense medications must register to use the PDMP. Authorized users include prescribers, dispensers, the attorney general’s office (on behalf of law enforcement),
designated commonwealth personnel, and medical examiners or county coroners. More than 90,000 registrants have conducted approximately 1.6 million patient searches each month. The PDMP online database allows prescribers and dispensers of controlled substances to monitor who is obtaining opioids, who prescriptions are being obtained from, and how often they are prescribed, and it also supports clinicians in identifying patients who may be struggling from the disease of addiction and help connect them with treatment services. For more information on the PDMP, readers may visit https://pennsylvania.pmp aware.net/.
Wednesdays for the next four weeks, ending on Wednesday, April 3. A set number of fastnachts will be available for ordering on each day of the bake. “620 dozen per day multiplied by 11 days - you’ve got quite a few,” Knapp remarked. Still, the bake usually sells out quickly. When the website went live last year, all of the available pastries were claimed within five days. This year, orders may be placed from a desktop or laptop computer at www.holytrinitycolumbiapa.com beginning on Monday, Feb. 11. The security settings on most phones and tablets will not work with the website. Online ordering will be open until
fastnachts are sold out. Fastnachts will be sold by the dozen; half-dozens will not be available. Payment will be by credit card or PayPal. As was the case when the sale was introduced 95 years ago, the proceeds will be used for the church building and wherever funds are needed. The fastnachts will be made and may be picked up at Our Lady of Angels Catholic School, which is located across the street from the church. Folks who have supported the fastnacht bake in previous years will note that the pickup door has changed to ensure student safety and security. Signs will point customers to the new location.

According to Knapp, fastnacht preparation is a lengthy process. The dough is mixed at night so it has time to proof overnight. Then, folks arrive at 4 a.m. to prepare for the frying process, which the church calls a “bake.” Fresh fastnachts are ready for pickup by 10 a.m. All pastries are reserved, but any not picked up by 1 p.m. are fair game and are sold on a firstcome, first-served basis. “People have grown up with them.

Time-Saving Suggestions Posted Back of the Year in 1998, and Outstanding Back of the Year in 1998. He was selected as Section Three’s Outstanding Football Player in 1998 by the Elizabethtown and Lititz Lions Clubs. He played in the War of the Roses All-Star game and was nominated to Big 33 in 1998. In baseball, Madara earned two varsity letters while playing on the Indians’ teams that won Section Three Championships in 1998 and 1999, finished second in District Three in 1998, and was a state tournament qualifier in 1998. He received Section Three Honorable Mention in 1998. At Millersville University he earned three varsity letters in football. The 1970 baseball team was coached by head coach Donald Staley and Al Brooks and included players Thomas Derr, Douglas Lee Estock, Dennis Frank, Dennis Hay, John Henry, Lynn Hoffman, Tom Houseal, Butch McCurdy, Donald Musser, Scott C. Penwell, John F. Shrum Jr., and Bruce Sutter. The team went 13-2 and won the Section One and Lancaster County championships. The Indians overcame numerous obstacles in their run to their championships, with the biggest and most painful being the loss of Staley, who fell ill with terminal cancer early in the season and was hospitalized, missing the rest of the season. The Indians dedicated the season to him. After defeating Garden Spot 2-1 in the county championship game at Ephrata’s War Memorial Stadium, the team went directly to Lancaster General Hospital, where they presented Staley with the championship trophy and the signed game ball. Staley was named Lancaster County Coach of the Year.
Whether it is to spend more time exploring the great outdoors or enjoying the company of family and friends, everyone wants to find more time in their busy schedules to do the things they love. While work at home and at the office always seems to be beckoning, no one wants to be tied down by housework and/or a to-do list. Though it is impossible to add more minutes to the day, several tips can help people save time. First, people should clean as they go. When it comes to keeping a home clean and organized, it pays to do a little bit at a time rather than spend a whole day or weekend on chores. Wipe down the shower after each use to avoid the build-up of mold and mildew. Dust surfaces in the closet regularly to keep items and clothes clean longer, and wipe kitchen surfaces while cooking. Regular maintenance goes a long way toward keeping a home tidy and ready for spur-of-themoment gatherings. Second, avoid shopping on weekends. People who work a typical 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. schedule often do their shopping on weekends because that is when they have the most time on their hands. But since that is true for most
Amy Hoffman is the Milanof-Schock Library’s 1.5 millionth visitor. In an effort to celebrate the library’s 20 years of service at its Anderson Ferry Road location, library staff tallied annual visitation numbers to determine how many people have visited the facility since its opening in 1999, and they discovered that a special milestone loomed. On Jan. 9, the counting device near the library’s front entrance reached 1.5 million as Hoffman walked through the door. Staff members greeted her with balloons, confetti, and a cake to share with other library visitors. To learn more about the library, readers may visit www.ms library.org.

Bethel AME To Celebrate 200 Years Bethel African Methodist Episcopal (AME) Church, located on Fairview Avenue in Marietta, is marking the 200th year of its founding this year. The church was organized in 1819 by escaped slaves and free people of color who met outside of Marietta in an area known as Heisey Woods. In 1822, the congregation purchased a carriage house, remodeled it, and called it Bethel. In 1861, this building was destroyed when vandals set it on fire, but the congregation rebuilt another church on the same site. In 1969, the church was blessed by Mrs. Anthony Resch, and the old church was torn down and a new one was built at the same location. Bethel AME Church is recognized as the oldest continuously operating church in Marietta. Graves of 20 black Civil War vet-
erans are buried in the church cemetery, including Wesley Armstrong, who fought with the Massachusetts 54th U.S. Colored Infantry, which was featured in the film “Glory.” The church is planning several events throughout the year to commemorate its 200th anniversary milestone. To kick off the “Celebrate 200” project, a Valentine Musical featuring local talent will be held on Saturday, Feb. 9, at 3 p.m. at the church. All are invited to attend. A “Celebrate 200” banquet will be held on Saturday, Oct. 19, at Heritage Hotel in Centerville, and an anniversary worship service is also being planned to be held in the future. Information on these two events and others will be forthcoming. Everyone is invited to attend the events.

The program is still activity-oriented, but more emphasis is placed on paper-andpencil activities and structured seat work. The student notebook is expanded and built upon as a tool for scholarship. The Writing Road to Reading literacy program is introduced, and students expand their phonetic awareness and segmentation in preparation of beginning to read.

Dayspring Christian Academy, 120 College Ave., Mountville, invites families with soon-to-be preschoolers and kindergartners to its Early Childhood Education Open House on Thursday, Feb. 14, at 10 a.m. The open house will feature a Valentine’s party that will focus on 1 Corinthians 13:13, which states, “The greatest of these is love.” Parents will meet with teachers and learn the distinctives of the Principle Approach, the method of education that is used at Dayspring and that was used during the Colonial and founding periods in America. According to headmaster Dr. Mike Myers, the Principle Approach is rooted in the Word of God. Dayspring offers two kindergarten programs - Developmental Kindergarten and Academic Kindergarten - in which children begin to learn the rudiments of subjects such as science, history, and geography while learning to view God as the Author of every subject. Both kindergarten classes incorporate field studies, as well. The Developmental Kindergarten program is appropriate for children who are 4 years old or who just turned 5 at the start of the school year. The program is activity-oriented while introducing the structure and rigors of a formal classroom setting. As a first step into scholarship, the student notebook is introduced and students begin formal steps toward reading through the Sound Sensible program. Students develop early math skills,

The February edition of the LunchTIME presentation at the NAWCC National Watch and Clock Museum, 514 Poplar St., Columbia, will feature museum staff as they explore and uncover the details of the effects of the Art Deco movement in horology, or the study of the measurement of time, and how its influence differs from that of Art Nouveau and Streamline Moderne. The Art Deco LunchTIME Talk is scheduled for Wednesday, Feb. 13, at noon. Art Deco, or Style Moderne, was a movement in art and design that originated in the 1920s and became popular in Western Europe and the United States in the 1930s. Its stylized look influenced design in many everyday objects, including clocks and watches. From December through March, museum hours are Tuesdays through Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. From April through November, the museum is open Tuesdays through Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Sundays from noon to 4 p.m. From Memorial Day through Labor Day, the museum is also open on Mondays. Discounts are available to seniors, students, AAA members, and groups of 10 or more. Groups of 10 or more are encouraged to call ahead.

Eastern Mennonite Missions (EMM) worker Jonathan Bornman presented at an event on Nov. 30, 2018, at Tyndale Theological Seminary in Badhoevedorp, Netherlands. The event’s theme was “A Dialogue Comparing the Divine and the Human in Islam and Christianity.” Along with Bornman, the presenters included Dr. Yaser Ellethy, Dr. Khalid Hajji, and Dr. Bert de Ruiter. The Muslim and Christian scholars had been invited to participate by Tyndale professor and EMM worker Dr. Philip A. Gottschalk. Attendees were predominately seminary students and faculty, but community members were also present. Gottschalk hosted the event as part of a course he teaches titled “Ethics of War, Peace, and Peacemaking.” Bornman, a Christian-Muslim relations consultant, highlighted the belief that humanity is created in the image of God. He said that humans’ ability to creatively solve problems is an example of humans reflecting God. Illustrating this creative problem-solving, Bornman shared the story of M.J. Sharp and his work in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Sharp, who was
Board Elects Leaders
murdered in 2017, creatively sought to promote peace in a challenging setting. Bornman’s main purpose in sharing this story was to emphasize how the creativity of God within humanity can be used to do good in the world. Several students who were in attendance had been raised as Muslims but had later converted to Christianity. One student shared they were surprised at how openly the presenters could discuss theological differences in a respectful manner. EMM’s Christian-Muslim Relations Team, of which Bornman is a member, seeks to encourage church leaders to interact with Muslim clerical leaders. In addition to his work with EMM, Bornman is a Ph.D. candidate at Middlesex University London. His dissertation is focused on the nonviolent practices of a Senegalese Sufi order called the Muridiyya. He served as a Bible teacher in Senegal from 1999 to 2009 but is currently doing research in the Murid community in Harlem, New York City. Tyndale is an international, English-language seminary. The school has had students from more than 80 countries.
