Jubilee from pg 1 By Chelsea Peifer
Jubilee Ministries might be most familiar to people who have driven by or shopped at its stores in Annville, Lebanon, Manheim, Myerstown, and Palmyra, but there is a lot more going on behind the scenes of the bustling thrift stores as the organization aims to fulfill its mission to rebuild, restore, and renew lives. Income from the stores, which sell a wide variety of quality used clothing, furniture, electronics, and housewares, support what chief executive officer Ryan Newswanger listed as Jubilee’s three core avenues of outreach: a prison chaplaincy ministry, a prison aftercare program, and summer camp scholarships provided to local children and youths affected by incarceration. “Most people know us from the stores, and they don’t necessarily know there’s a significant ministry going on,” remarked Newswanger. “Most of what we do happens behind bars and barbed wire, so no one sees it.” Seventeen chaplains are currently on staff with Jubilee and spend time with inmates at 10 prison facilities in Pennsylvania. That time is split between leading worship services and Bible studies and recovery groups, teaching life skills classes, and offering one-on-one counseling to men and women. “I often tell people our chaplains are very much like missionaries,” Newswanger said. “Prison is certainly a place where the Gospel is needed.” Taking the message of salvation and freedom available through Jesus Christ into prisons was how Jubilee got its start in 1972. “There was a revival, and a group of young people felt called to go into the Lebanon County Prison,” relayed Newswanger. What began at the prison with prayer and young adults boldly sharing testimonies of what God had done in their lives grew to include a thrift store in Lebanon to generate funds to support chaplains to go into area prisons. Several other store locations were launched as the entire ministry multiplied. The after-care program began in 1993 as a way to purposefully support people coming out of prison and transitioning back into society. “We’ve been doing re-entry since before it was called re-entry,” Newswanger said with a smile. Men may apply to be part of the program, which offers group housing with faith-based and life skills classes to attend, as well as job training and work at
the Lebanon thrift store. Newswanger described the program as very structured and designed to help each individual meet specific goals. “The change can happen, and we see it all the time,” stated Newswanger. “The most fascinating thing about this ministry is how someone can go from committing whatever crime they did and being at a very low point and then seeing the transformation that can happen if they choose to follow Christ.” Newswanger considers it an honor to watch men who have completed the after-care program then go on to become a successful part of the workforce, own businesses, pastor churches, and raise healthy families. For children and youths who are or have been impacted by incarceration, Jubilee offers one-week summer camp scholarships to local faith-based camps every year. The scholarships - which are in the average amount of $400 - are available to any young person ages 8 to 17 whose parents are currently in a prison served by one of Jubilee’s chaplains or are being served through Jubilee’s after-care program. The idea is that each individual will be able to relax and have fun at camp and be exposed to the Gospel. “The tragedy for the kids (who have an incarcerated parent) is that either mom or dad isn’t there. That means they are forced to grow up fast and have to become a parent to themselves or their siblings at a young age,” said Newswanger. “Camp is great because it gives kids a chance to be a kid.” To donate to support Jubilee’s summer camp scholarship program, readers may visit www.jub.org/summercamp. More information about Jubilee, including details on other ways to contribute financially or volunteer at its stores, is available at www.jub.org. Pictured on front: Evoni
(center) attended Kenbrook Bible Camp in Lebanon thanks to the camp scholarships that Jubilee Ministries provides for local children and youths who have a parent who is incarcerated or in another challenging situation. “Camp has been one of the biggest impacts in my life,” shared Evoni. Jubilee also offers a prison chaplaincy ministry and after-care program.

Pastor Carl Rabbe (far left) leads a planning session for the Stephen Ministry Introductory Workshop to take place at Palm Lutheran Church in Palmyra on Saturday, March 14. Also participating in the planning process are (continuing clockwise) Kitty Wolf, Stephen Leader; Ann Miller, Stephen Leader; Betty Kern, Stephen Minister; and Elaine Thompson, Stephen Minister. Palm Lutheran Church, 11 W. Cherry St., Palmyra, will host a Stephen Ministry Introductory Workshop on Saturday, March 14, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Registration will begin at 8 a.m., and refreshments will be served. The half-day workshop consists of three sessions designed both to enhance participants’ caregiving skills and to help congregations explore ways to expand their caring ministry. “The needs for ongoing care in congregations and communities are often much more than pastors can handle alone,” said pastor Carl Rabbe, one of four Stephen Leaders who oversee Palm’s Stephen Ministry. “Palm has been enrolled in Stephen Ministry for over 30 years and has been equipping our members to provide quality one-to-one Christian care for decades.” The workshop is sponsored by Stephen Ministries, a St. Louis-based Christian organization that has been providing congregations with training and resources for Christian caregiving since 1975. The workshop will be led by Kathy Hollenbeck, a trained Stephen Minister and Leader. Since 2012, Hollenbeck has been a member of the staff at the Stephen Ministries Center in St. Louis, where she is a key member of the operations team. She communicates with pastors and lay leaders, conducting research and providing consultation for their ministry needs. Prior to joining Stephen Ministries, she, along with her husband and three sons, ministered in Uganda in East Africa for more than 10 years. In the first session of the workshop, “Ministering to Those Experiencing Grief,” participants will learn about the stages of grief and how to minister to people in each of those stages. The second session will provide an introduction to the Stephen Series, a system of lay caring ministry through which congregation leaders can equip members to provide

one-to-one Christian care to people in need. Since 1975, more than 13,000 congregations representing more than 170 denominations have implemented the Stephen Series. Since 1986, more than 50 members of Palm have undertaken 50 hours of training to become Stephen Ministers. Palm usually has an average three to five active Stephen Ministers at any given time. Each meets weekly with someone who is experiencing a life crisis or challenge, such as the death of a loved one, divorce, hospitalization, the loss of a job, loneliness, or relocation. “Being a Stephen Minister has been a blessing to me,” said Kitty Wolf, Stephen Minister and Leader for over 20 years. “I have grown so much spiritually through the experience of seeing God work through me to touch the lives of my care receivers.” The final session of the workshop will focus on “How to Care in a Distinctively Christian Way.” Participants will learn what makes Christian caregiving unique and how they can use resources like prayer, blessings, and Scripture in their caring for others. A per-person fee has been set, with a discount for groups of four or more people from the same congregation. For more information or to register, readers may contact Stephen Ministries at 314-428-2600. Registration is also available at www.stephen ministries.org/workshop. Pictured on front: Stephen Ministers Elaine Thompson (left) and Rosalia Wooley roleplay what to say and what not to say to someone experiencing grief. The upcoming Stephen Ministry Introductory Workshop at Palm Lutheran Church in Palmyra will also include role-playing. and major credit cards will be accepted as payment. Also available for sale during the fish fry will be handmade chocolate eggs available in peanut butter, buttercream, coconut, and peppermint. Each 2.4-ounce egg is dipped in white, dark, or milk chocolate. Eggs are individually priced. For more information, including the full menu, readers may visit www.ssbvm.org. The location is handicapped-accessible. Overflow parking is available at nearby Feaser Middle School.

Joke of the Week You know you are over the hill when... -You and your teeth don’t sleep together. -You try to straighten out the wrinkles in your socks and discover you aren’t wearing any. -At the breakfast table, you hear snap, crackle, pop and you’re not eating cereal. -Your back goes out but you stay home. -You wake up looking like your driver’s license photo. -It takes two tries to get up from the couch. -When your idea of a night out is sitting on the patio. -When you’re on vacation and your energy runs out before your money does. -When all you want for your birthday is to not be reminded of your age. -When you step off the curb and look down one more time to make sure the street is still there. -It takes longer to rest than it did to get tired. -Your memory is shorter and your complaining lasts longer. -Your address book has mostly names that start with Dr. -The pharmacist has become your new best friend. -The twinkle in your eye is merely a reflection from the sun on your bifocals. -It takes twice as long to look half as good. -Everything hurts, and what doesn’t hurt doesn’t work. -You look for your glasses for half an hour and they were on your head the whole time. -You give up all your bad habits and still don’t feel good. -You have more patience, but it is actually that you just don’t care anymore. -You finally get your head together and your body starts falling apart. -You wonder how you could be over the hill when you don’t even remember being on top of it. Thank You Thanks to good ol’ Francis Kasper of Middletown for the Joke of the Week! I can relate to more of those things than I care to admit! Food for Thought Our days are happier when we give people a bit of our heart rather than a piece of our mind.
