Taizé service offers opportunity for reflection
BY CATHY MOLITORISThere’s something powerful about silence. It offers an opportunity for reflection and meditation, and it’s an integral part of a Taizé worship service.
Named for the Taizé region of France where it originated, the service includes elements of Catholic
and Protestant traditions, with a focus on spirituality.
A Taizé service is held on the first Saturday of the month at St. Luke Episcopal Church, 209 S. Market St., Mount Joy, beginning at 5 p.m. The next service will be offered on Saturday, Sept. 2.
The Rev. Martha Harris leads the service, which began at St. Luke See Taizé pg 5
Marking 20 years of supporting students
BY CATHY MOLITORISFor20 years, the Lancaster County Career & Technology Foundation (LCCTF) has been supporting students as they prepare to enter the workforce.The organization marked its anniversary earlier this month, celebrating the purchase of an automatic truck for the CDL program at the Lancaster County Career & Technology Center (LCCTC) in Mount Joy.
The LCCTF formed in 2003 with a mission to ensure the LCCTC has the materials, equipment and funding to provide optimal career training for high school and adult students. Over the past two decades, the organization has raised $7 million to support students, including $34,000 annually awarded in scholarships for LCCTC students attending
postsecondary schools; $20,000 annually awarded in Workforce Grants for people directly entering the workforce following the LCCTC; and $10,000 annually in financial assistance to current LCCTC students.
including participation in the state’s Educational Improvement Tax Credit program and the ExtraGive.
“We also hold our annual fly fishing tournament, Fly on the Run,” Baker stated. “2024 will be the 18th year for the event to be held May 8 and 9. In 2023, we raised a record $130,000 to support the LCCTC.” Individual donors also support the LCCTF, and the organization just launched an alumni network this past spring, encouraging previous students to stay connected and give back to the LCCTC.
Stair climb will honor fallen first responders
BY ADRIAN ESCHENWALD“The foundation supports all four LCCTC campuses, including its Brownstown, Health Scienceslocated in Willow Street, Mount Joy and Willow Street locations,” said Jennifer Baker, executive director of the LCCTF. Money is raised through multiple channels,
The purchase of the automatic truck will aid students in a fourweek CDL program, part of the LCCTF’s Workforce Talent program. The initiative is designed to recruit, educate and place adults into highdemand, skilled positions, Baker said.
Lancaster County’s annual 9/11 Memorial Stair Climb will be held on Sunday, Sept. 17, at the Barnstormers’ stadium, 650 N. Prince St., Lancaster. Registration will begin at 8 a.m., followed by the stair climb at 9 a.m. Participants will be required to pay a set cost to sign up, and registration will also be available online at www.lancasterstairclimb.org until Friday, Sept. 15.
Once the memorial service begins, participants will begin a procession
up the steps of the stadium. They will circle the stadium five times, making the distance of the climb equivalent to the 110 stories of the World Trade Center. During the climb, each participant will carry an image or the badge of a first responder who was killed while responding to the 9/11 terrorist attacks.
Every year, many first responders travel to the Barnstormers’ stadium to participate in the event. Firefighters often choose to don their full set of equipment for the climb, carrying the same type of heavy gear
“The Workforce Talent program provides opportunity to those that are unemployed or underemployed.”
Volunteers to work with refugee children
Judy Kay Bard and her son, Dan Bard, who works with students with special needs, will accompany Lark Eshleman on a return trip to Romania from late September into October. They will aim to help stabilize and provide mental health services to children and teens - many of whom are orphans - who have been sent out of Ukraine for their safety. Eshleman spent several weeks in Medias, Romania, last fall with dozens of children and teens who continue to live in an orphanage in that part of Transylvania, and she plans to see those refugee children again on this trip. The team will also work with preschoolers in Sibiu and other refugee children in Cluj on the upcoming trip. While the adults pay most of their own costs, taxdeductible donations will be accepted toward the cost of materials for each child in the program. Donations may be made to the Kiwanis Club Norlanco Rheems Foundation (KCNR Foundation), a nonprofit held by the Norlanco Rheems Kiwanis Club. For more information on how to donate, email Barb O’Neal at oneal1301@comcast.net.
Additionally, donations of hand-made crib-size blankets are being delivered to the crew from a quilting club in Philadelphia, led by Susan Heydt’s aunt, Nancy Stevens.

After Harris became priest in charge in January, she took over the Taizé service in February.
“The church is an ideal venue because of its small
sanctuary size,” Harris said.
“It’s an intimate setting.”
The sanctuary is darkened for the candlelit service.
Participants enter the church in silence, and the service includes psalms of praise, read-and-respond
recitations, prayers, Bible readings and chants. Worshippers are invited to light a candle at the altar during the service in memory or honor of someone as well.
Initially, the Taizé service featured recorded music, but after April’s service, Harris recruited musicians to play live at the service.
“I’ve been on a search for musicians, especially ones who play instruments that are conducive to small spaces,” she said. In Lancaster, she found Davie Krak, who plays the Irish harp.
opportunity to worship in their own mind and heart while also being part of the community.”
She encourages anyone who’s interested to see what a Taizé service is all about.
“This is a come-as-you-are type of service,” she said. “People often say they are spiritual, but not necessarily religious. This is an opportunity to practice that in an ancient way.”

“He hadn’t heard of Taizé before, but he was interested,” Harris recalled, noting that Krak created original compositions for the service. “He plays beautiful music.” At the Sept. 2 service, Jonathan Hansen will accompany Krak with music on wooden Native American flutes as well.

At the end of the service, people may leave in silence, or they may stay in the sanctuary for Communion.
One of the best things to come out of the Taizé services has been the opportunity to welcome new people into the St. Luke’s sanctuary, Harris said.
“We’ve had people here who have never been to St. Luke’s,” she noted. Harris is also priest in charge at St. Paul Episcopal Church in Columbia, and members of that congregation have also come to the Taizé service.
“You don’t have to be Episcopalian or even a religious person to come to this service,” she emphasized.

“The Workforce Talent program provides opportunity to those that are unemployed or underemployed. Adults who match that criteria have the ability to apply for tuition assistance for up to 80% of the cost of tuition,” she explained. “We also provide tuition assistance for adults who enroll in the LCCTC’s 10-week Basic Welding program.”
Since 2017, the LCCTF has raised $1.1 million to provide tuition assistance to 111 welding students and 92 CDL students.
Everything the LCCTF does supports students in their quest to gain career and technical skills in a variety of
industries, Baker said, noting that donations to the organization bolster this mission.
“Give today to build tomorrow’s workforce,” she said. “Donations will directly help to enrich LCCTC programs by providing new equipment, current technology and up-to-date curriculum content; support students’ futures by giving them the opportunity to train on industry-standard equipment and technology; and build a thriving Lancaster County workforce by increasing the pipeline of skilled workers.”

Stair climb
that their fallen comrades did as they rescued those trapped in the twin towers. In the past, the event has drawn first responders from across the entire county, as well as firefighters and emergency personnel from New York, Connecticut, Maryland and New Jersey. “We have guys from outside of the state who only see each other at the stair climb every year. It’s a common bond for people,” said Scott Yuill, a member of the East Petersburg Fire Company. “They swap stories and catch up. Firefighters already have a bond with each other, but the memorial makes that stronger.”
Similar memorial events
are held throughout the country in almost every state, and Lancaster’s stair climb is one of the largest in the region. The proceeds from the Lancaster event will benefit the National Fallen Firefighters Foundation, which distributes funds to the New York City Fire Department’s counseling services. Many survivors, victims’ families and those who helped with rescue efforts continue to receive counseling over two decades after the attacks.
Yuill helped to establish the annual stair climb in Lancaster 13 years ago as a way to honor fellow firefighter Ronald Pucca. Yuill and Pucca met at a training program in New York, and Pucca was one
of the city’s fire marshals who was killed by the collapse of the World Trade Center.
Members of the community, especially first responders, immediately rallied in support of the memorial.
“The memorial gives people a unique way to show that
they haven’t forgotten, like everyone promised in the days after 9/11,” Yuill said.
“Even the younger generations participate, despite being babies when it happened. They know that it’s about honor and sacrifice, and they honor that.”
