VisionCorps in need of volunteer drivers BY FRANCINE FULTON

VisionCorps is looking for volunteers to help drive people who are blind and vision-impaired. Volunteer opportunities are available in both Lancaster and Chester counties. Especially needed are volunteers willing to drive VisionCorps staff members to clients’ homes,

where they teach them the skills they need to live independently. “They can use their own car or a VisionCorps vehicle,” explained Carol Gifford, community relations specialist. “We help them with mileage (reimbursement) if they use their own car.” She noted that two staff members have a regular need for transportation, so VisionCorps See VisionCorps pg 5

Give the gift of life BY FRANCINE FULTON

H

ealthy people age 17 and over are encouraged to give the gift of life this winter by donating blood through the Miller-Keystone Blood Center. Sixteen-year-olds may also donate with parental consent. According to Marie Clemens, director of communications, blood is especially needed during the winter months, when donations decrease. “(The supply) is lower than we would like it to be,” said Clemens. “Certain times of the year

are traditionally lower - middle of summer and middle of winter because of inclement weather. If it is snowing, people won’t come out.” She added that winter is also cold and flu season, and having one of these illnesses makes donors ineligible. Clemens noted that blood donations are still affected by the pandemic. “A lot of donors did not come back. Some are uncomfortable donating in rooms with other donors even though we practice social distancing,” she stated, noting that blood drives at

area schools have also decreased. “About 20% of donations come from (blood drives held) at high schools and colleges. Not all schools are running blood drives to the same degree (as before the pandemic). That has impacted our collections.” After making an appointment to donate blood, people should arrive at the location with a valid driver’s license or other form of identification. Donors are then asked to answer medical questions, and a trained medical screener will do a health check,

Providing encouragement, information and comfort to those newly diagnosed with cancer as well as cancer survivors is the goal of the cancer support group that meets at Conestoga Mennonite Church. Meetings are held year round at 7 p.m. on the third Thursday of the month, with the exception of a summer break in June and August.

According to cancer survivor Cheryl Heineman, who leads the group, meetings generally feature a guest speaker or educational program. “The guest speaker is at the beginning of the evening. When the guest speaker is finished, we take a break and come back as a group and share updates and what is going on in our lives. It helps to know where everyone is and how they are feeling,” said Cheryl. “If there is no speaker, I have different topics that I know See Support group pg 4

St. Mark’s Lutheran Church in Birdsboro hosted its annual 12th Night Boars’ Head Party on Jan. 5. The event featured music, dancing, food and games. “Between 80 and 100 people attended the (event),” said Sally Sassaman, St. Mark’s Church administrative coordinator. “12th Night celebrates the wise men visiting baby Jesus and ends the Christmas season.” The event began with a blessing and introduction by pastor James Farnsworth. “It is a centuries-old way to celebrate and to mark the occasion of the Epiphany with God’s blessing of our lives and homes,” he stated. “Using blessed chalk, people marked the doorposts of their homes with an inscription citing the new year and the letters CMB, which stand for Latin words (that mean) ‘May Christ Bless This Home.’(The letters also represent) the three Magi - Caspar, Melchior and Balthasar.” The blessing was followed by an opening parade with musical instruments, including bagpipes,

a violin and a drum. Guests, including musician Dave Kline, led the group in the singing of “The Boar’s Head Carol,” “Here We Come A-wassailing” and “God Rest Ye Merry, Gentlemen,” among other anthems. Attendees enjoyed freshly made pulled pork sandwiches, hot dogs and other menu items. Adults drank wassail, which was made with orange, apple and cherry juices mixed with whiskey and rum. The wassail toast was offered by Kline. “Our event benefited the church youth who will attend the ELCA Youth Gathering in New Orleans this summer,” noted Sassaman. To view highlights of the event, visit www.youtube.com and search for “Recap of 12th Night Boar’s Head Party, 1/5/24.” St. Mark’s Lutheran Church is located at 5 Brooke Manor, Birdsboro.

“There are so many things to consider when adopting a pet,” said Damon March, director of operations for Humane Pennsylvania, which oversees the Lancaster Center for Animal Life-Saving on Route 30 as well as the Freedom Center for Animal Life-Saving in Reading. “Those who have never been the primary caretaker, it’s difficult to see everything. We discourage people from making a snap decision.” Different types of pets require different levels of care as do the individual pets, based on age and a variety of factors, and the commitment continues for up to 20 years depending on the pet. “I wish people would better manage the expectation that they will walk in and find a pet for them,” March pointed out. “Pets are not universal. They have wide-ranging personalities, and finding a good match for you is not always easy.” To foster more successful pet

ownership, Humane Pennsylvania seeks to counsel would-be pet owners with questions about lifestyle, time and interest in working with a pet, and expenses. March noted that getting a puppy is probably the most challenging of pet adoptions, pointing out that those who like to travel spontaneously might do better with a lower-maintenance cat. Training, both house training and behavior modification, is most important and time-consuming with puppies. “Housebreaking (is) a pretty major thing, but there are other things, and one of the most important is the general manners,” emphasized March, who noted that laying down house rules from the first day and enforcing them 24/7 is key. “When people return puppies, it’s because they underestimated how much work those general behaviors would be,” he said. “One of the bigger mistakes with a very young puppy is to delay the beginning of that training. As dogs mature, allowing behaviors See Pet ownership pg 4

response (to his circumstances) was an encouragement,” she said. “Even though he had this horrible illness, he could still be here, share and have a purpose. He (was able) to share (feelings) that he was dealing with.” “At first, he said cancer would not take him and then he became resolved and he (made) his peace and said that he will be with the Lord,” she added.

Blood donations from pg 1 which includes blood pressure, pulse and temperature screenings. “For whole blood donations, the process from registration until they have cookies in the canteen and go home is about 45 minutes,” Clemens noted. “The donation itself is six to 10 minutes.” In addition, there is a need for donation of platelets, red blood cells and plasma, which can extend the donation process. “For those with a blood type of AB negative or positive, we encourage plasma (donations),” she explained. “Platelets only have a shelf life of seven days, and they are used as cancer treatment in hospitals.” Those with blood type O negative are especially needed to donate blood. “Type O negative is a universal donor,” Clemens noted. “If someone is in a car accident and (the emergency workers) don’t have time to type their blood, they can get O negative.” The Miller-Keystone Blood Center’s main headquarters is located

in Bethlehem. It also has several satellite offices, including one in Reading. “We have couriers that come to a blood drive, and all the blood collected goes to our Bethlehem headquarters for testing for one or two days. If it’s a first-time donor, they also type the blood,” said Clemens. “Hospitals have standard orders that they receive every day or every other day.” She added that someone from the blood center is always on call in case of an accident where blood is needed immediately. “We do anywhere from 700 to 1,000 blood drives per year,” Clemens reported. “The blood stays in our community to help patients at community hospitals. We serve 35 hospitals in eastern PA and western New Jersey.” One of Miller-Keystone’s largest blood drives is held at Daniel Boone Area High School, 501 Chestnut St., Birdsboro. It is held annually to honor student Angela Hohl, who passed away in 2003 from an

aggressive form of leukemia just days before starting her senior year at Daniel Boone. This year’s Angela Hohl Memorial Blood Drive will take place on Tuesday, Feb. 13, from 3 to 7 p.m. Two years ago, Miller-Keystone instituted the Thank the Donor program, which allows blood donors and transfusion recipients to connect anonymously via email. “When the recipient or someone from their family wants to thank the individual who donated blood, they can log in (to a website) and put in a number, and it links them and they can send an anonymous email to the actual person whose blood they received,” she said. “You know you are doing good, but it is another thing to get an email that says, ‘You saved my life.’” For more information about blood donation and to learn about upcoming local blood drives, visit www.giveapint.org or call 800-B-A-DONOR (223-6667) or email info@giveapint.org.

around their house and use public transportation?’” Gifford noted that volunteers are given choices for different assignments. They can choose to participate when it is convenient for them. “When we have an assignment, we will reach out and send an email to the volunteers. It will say someone needs transportation on this date and time and ask if they are available,” Gifford explained. “You don’t have to commit to a regular schedule, although you could. You would be contacted each time, and you can say ‘yes’ or ‘no.’” Gifford said that while the volunteer opportunity is ideal for retired residents, all drivers are welcome to provide the service. She added that volunteers have been used by the agency for several years. “We got out of (using volunteer drivers) during COVID, but now there is more need,” she stated. “We have about 10 to 15 volunteers, and we can use a lot more.” Drivers interested in volunteering are asked to contact Miranda

is hoping to find additional volunteer drivers. “One of the people who needs transportation is the orientation and mobility specialist. She trains individuals who are blind how to use a white cane and anything they need in terms of mobility,” said Gifford. “We also have the access technology specialist who works with our clients who need help accessing any type of technology using a laptop or tablet. He trains them and helps them find out about different apps that are available and shows them how to use them.” Gifford said that volunteer drivers are not only providing an important service, but they are also able to enjoy the company of VisionCorps staff members. “What our volunteers like about participating in a program like this is they get to know the individuals they are driving; it’s kind of fun,” she said, noting that volunteers can also learn about the services that VisionCorps provides “They can ask them questions about how they cope with low vision and ‘How do you teach individuals to get

SPEAKER: Doug Myer

Topic: A Long Obedience in the Same Direction From Doug: The life of discipleship is “A Long Obedience in the Same Direction.” The journey begins when we recognize who God is and who we are and call to Him as Psalm 130 discusses.
