New Women’s Health Center Opens By Marcella Peyre-Ferry
La Comunidad Hispana (LCH) held a grand opening event on July 26 for its new Women’s Health Center. The facility is located in the Jennersville Professional Building at 105 Vineyard Way, Suite 200, West Grove. The Women’s Health Center will provide services for women of all ages, including well woman exams, screenings, prenatal and post-partum care and behavioral health. The center expects to serve at least 1,000 patients this year. Services are available to all, with a sliding fee scale for low-income patients. “We welcome all women,” CEO Alisa Jones said. “No one is turned away.” The event also included the unveiling of portraits in the waiting area created by local artist Darcie Goldberg, who
took photographs of LCH patients, volunteers and staff members. In the photos, the subjects were asked to write down their “dream” on a chalkboard. The photos will remain on permanent display at the facility. LCH also has medical locations in Kennett Square and Oxford. “We wanted to bring specialty services to Jennersville,” Jones said. “We can serve our entire service area, which is southern Chester County.” More space for more integrated care has been a long-term goal for LCH. “This is a dream come true,” women’s health director Catherine Domanska Elliott stated. “We now have a space to truly provide integrated care to the incredible women in this community.” Looking toward the future, LCH plans to continue to grow. “This is just the beginning of better access to care See Health Center pg 7

The pairs that are successful develop relationships.” She said that the results of the tutoring provide tangible proof of the program’s success. “We’ve had tutors help people get their citizenship or get a new job,” said Burstein. “We had one student who worked on a landscape crew. Because his English was better, he became a foreman.” Burstein is also a tutor, and her student, who is from China, is learning to improve her pro-

dents based on their preferences and geographical location. “Some people want someone from Latin America or someone who is finetuning their grammar,” noted Burstein. “Some people want (to tutor) someone who barely speaks English. It is really challenging, but this (volunteer experience can be) the most rewarding.” Burstein explained that students’ skills are tested when entering the program, and they are asked what goals they have. All the information is given to the tutors before they meet the students. In addition to studying to receive their high school equivalency diploma, some students are studying to become United States citizens, while others have goals such as improving their reading, writing and spelling. “Some students want to go the doctor with their kids and not have their kids translate, or they want to go to the store (and be able to read the signs and prices),” Burstein noted. She said tutors must be kind and patient and be willing to stay with the program. “I think the main quality of tutors is commit-

began tutoring Oxford students and forming friendships with other tutors. Sebastian was a veteran, local lawyer, and founding member of OEF, for which he also served as a volunteer. Although Sebastian died in 1997, his legacy in the OEF continues through the award. Nottingham Elementary School received the John C. Pittenger Building Grant for its grant proposal, “STEAM, a Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics Collaborative Innovation Station.” By utilizing the grant monies from the OEF, students in grades three and four will be able to gather and share ideas while using tools and equipment to design, tinker, build, create, and respond to STEAM challenges. Pittinger was the Pennsylvania secretary of education from 1972 to 1976, Rutgers University of Law School Dean from 1981 to 1986, and a founding member of the OEF, in which he also served as president.

The Oxford Educational Foundation (OEF) closed out another school year with its annual endof-the-year breakfast. The event, co-sponsored by the OEF and Oxford Area Educational Association, is a celebration for Oxford Area School District staff and includes the presentation of the Randy Sebastian Volunteer Person (RSVP) Award and the John C. Pittenger Building Grant. The OEF showed its appreciation for the more than 100 classroom volunteers, mentors, and tutors who work within the Oxford Area School District. These volunteers gave more than 2,750 hours of their time to benefit the students of the district.

Gap Relief Auction from pg 1 By Marcella Peyre-Ferry
While the Quarryville Fairgrounds will be the home of the 2018 Gap Relief Auction, the event’s name still pays homage to the location of the place where it started: at Sam Summers’ farm in Gap in 1948. Set for Friday, Aug. 10, and Saturday, Aug. 11, the annual auction to benefit the Mennonite Central Committee (MCC) will be held in the Kreider Building at the Solanco Fairgrounds, located at 172 S. Lime St., Quarryville. “It’s the longest continuing auction benefiting MCC. There are 40-some auctions across the United States and Canada,� said Ken Sensenig, assistant executive director of MCC East Coast. “It’s a way people in their home communities and right here in southern Lancaster County can literally reach out and touch the world. MCC works in 56 countries around the world.� The event will begin with a roast pork dinner to eat in or take out from 4 to 7 p.m. on Aug. 10. This will also be an opportunity to preview auction items, including quilts, that will be sold on Aug. 11. A blood drive will be held onsite on Aug. 10 from 4 to 8 p.m. Those who donate will receive a certificate for a free ice cream cone from the ice cream stand and a T-shirt. To schedule an
appontment, readers may call 800-771-0059 or visit www.717giveblood.org. There will be a special singing performance by young people of the Weaverland Mennonite Conference from 6:30 to 7:15 p.m. on Aug. 10, followed by MCC speaker Tom Wenger. His topic will focus on the need for material resources for southern Russia and Ukraine. Proceeds from the Friday night offering will benefit the cause. “There’s been social unrest and war in Ukraine,� Sensenig explained. “(Wenger) has been in Ukraine recently and will be drawing from that experience.� An auction of smaller items will begin at 7:30 p.m. on Aug. 10. On Aug. 11, the auction will move into full speed. Bidders may come early for a country breakfast of pancakes, sausage and eggs starting at 6 a.m. to prepare for the start of the auction at 8:30 a.m. Household items, crafts and more will start on Block 1 at 8:30 a.m., while farm items, hardware and tools will begin on Block 2 at 8:45 a.m., followed by an auction of shrubbery and lawn furniture. A children’s auction will start at 10 a.m. Large furniture will be featured at 11 a.m., followed by special items at noon. Special items this year will include a new spring wagon and playground
equipment. At 12:30 p.m., there will be an auction of sheds, gazebos and more, followed by the quilt auction at 1 p.m. One unique item to be included in this year’s auction is a cedar chest with a bench top that features a scene of the first Gap Relief Auction from 1948 painted by Daniel Esh. The chest was created for the auction’s 50th anniversary year and was
purchased by a member of the Summers family at that time. It returned to be sold again about nine years ago to a purchaser from North Carolina, and now it has returned again to the sale this year. Proceeds from the auction are important to the fundraising of the Mennonite Central Committee, which provides relief, developing and peacemaking work in

the United States and around the world. Donations of new or slightly used items are being accepted for the auction. For more information or to donate, readers may contact Levi Fisher at 717529-6187 or Ammon Stoltzfoos at 717-786-0880. More information about the event is available at www.mcc.org/get-involved/

“It turned out to be one of the best things I have ever done for myself,” said Donna Trace when recalling her decision to attend GriefShare, a support group for those dealing with the death of a loved one. “It is something we all have in common. We all lose people, and we all need help.” The fall session of GriefShare will begin on Tuesday, Aug. 14, at Gateway Church, 160 Cowan Road, Parkesburg. Meetings will be held every Tuesday through Oct. 23 from 7 to 9 p.m. The meetings are facilitated by Paul and Twila Ranck. GriefShare is a nondenominational group that features biblical teaching on grief and recovery topics. Session topics include “Challenges of Grief,” “The Journey of Grief ” and “Heaven.” The topic for the opening meeting will be “Is This Normal?” Trace, who lost her husband, attended the complete GriefShare session both times it has been held at Gateway Church. Prior to that, the sessions took place at FAMILIES in Gap. “I was at church and I heard them say they were going to

I wasn’t sure how I was going to react and what it was going to be like.” Each session, which is held in The Venue meeting area in the church, begins with light snacks and beverages, including coffee and tea.

for stage time as it is available. All bluegrass, old-time and country styles are welcome in the allacoustic format. “I’ll have plenty of spots open for stage time,” Armstrong said. “I’d like to encourage (everyone) - especially the young people - to come out and play music.” In addition to the music, there will be a free hayride around the grounds, a violin vendor and lots of food. Mount Zion African Methodist Episcopal (AME) Church members are scheduled to return this year with their popular fish fry. “We try to keep it a community affair. All of the food vendors are local nonprofits,” West Sadsbury Township supervisor Barry Edwards said. “The park is almost a hidden gem; people don’t know what’s back there. Once you get up there, I think everybody’s pleasantly surprised with what they find.” Handicapped-accessible and musician parking will be available on-site during the event. Others should follow the signs to off-site parking. There will be shuttles running from the park to the parking lots all day, plus there will be golf carts on the grounds for anyone who needs assistance getting around the park. There is full shade around the main stage, which will help to provide relief from summer temperatures. Attendees should bring their own blankets or lawn chairs for seating. No alcohol is permitted on the grounds. Admission is free, but a parking fee will be collected. There is no rain date for the event. In the case of severe weather, readers may check www.westsadsbury twp.org for updates. Information in advance of the event is available by calling the West Sadsbury Township office at 610857-5969.

will open at 10 a.m. with young performers from the Cab Calloway School of the Arts in Wilmington, Del. Other performing groups that have already indicated they plan to attend include returning favorite the Orpheus Supertones, a group that is well-known in old-time music and has performed internationally. Progressive bluegrass band Acoustic Turnpike is scheduled to play, as well as traditional bluegrass band Short Notise. Another bluegrass group on the schedule, J-Tyme, is composed of members of the Horst family. “It’s a nice up-and-coming family playing bluegrass,” Armstrong noted. A somewhat different sound will be provided by autoharp artist David Kilby of Oxford. “He played for me early on in the second year (of the event), and I was pretty much blown away by his talent,” Armstrong said, adding, “I’m hoping to have a gospel singer at the end who has a good repertoire of music and has written songs.” The work of organizing the event is a team effort between Armstrong, event organizer Jim Groff and West Sadsbury Township. “I always wanted to have something like this happen in Christiana,” Groff said. “When (former West Sadsbury Township supervisor) Jim Landis had approached me about using their park, I didn’t know anything about the park. We walked almost the whole property and I thought, ‘This is perfect for what I want to do.’” While the main stage will be the center of activities, there will be many opportunities to venture into the woods for impromptu jam sessions. Those who would like to perform for the larger audience may sign up

The Hearts in Action Committee of Community of Love Lutheran Church in Oxford awarded eight Charlie and Peg (C.A.P.) Middleton Scholarships to area college students during the church’s worship service on July 22. The students were recognized for excelling not only scholastically, but also in extracurricular activities and in service to their church, their community, and the world. The scholarship recipients were Virginia Bradbury, Jenevieve Eberly, Kaci Johnson, Andrea Loveland, Anna Malone, Tyler Meade, Caroline Poore, and Emily Quesenberry. In 2007, Community of Love Lutheran Church received a gift
from the estate of the Middletons, who were members of the church. The Hearts in Action Endowment Fund was formed from the gift. Both Charlie and Peg were staunch believers in higher education. When they bequeathed the endowment, their wishes were that the it be used, at least in part, to provide scholarships for local students studying for careers of service to the community. From 2009 through 2017, 37 C.A.P. Scholarships were awarded.

talk, you don’t have to,” said Trace. “You just say, ‘Pass.’” Attendees then watch a DVD that features real-life stories of people who have experienced loss. Each participant receives a workbook that features a section for taking notes on each video as well as daily Scripture readings. “After the video, if there is a large group, we break up into smaller groups and discuss what we got out of the video,” said Trace. “Again, if you don’t want to talk, you don’t have to.” Following the breakout sessions, the group comes together for closing comments and a prayer before the meeting ends. GriefShare is open to people of all ages, including those who have experienced a recent loss and those who have been grieving for years. “We end up getting different ways of looking at things because people react differently and everyone is at a different point in their journey,” said Trace. “Everyone is in the same boat, and there is so much support. It’s a big, big help.” People can attend GriefShare at any

Golf Tournament Benefits Organizations A total of 100 golfers participated in the 11th annual Beiler-Campbell Realtors Charity Golf Tournament at the Kennett Square Golf and Country Club in early summer. More than $30,000 was raised for two local organizations: Family Promise of Southern Chester County (SCC) and the Justin W. Jennings Foundation. Family Promise SCC helps children and their families experiencing homelessness achieve lasting self-sufficiency and stability by providing shelter, meals, and comprehensive support services through a network of congregations and volunteers until they find sustainable housing. The Justin W. Jennings Foundation manages and operates Justin’s Beach House, a home in the Bethany Beach area where families dealing with cancer can have a place of respite. The golf committee includes (from left) Anthony Beiler, Vicki Pollert, Jennifer D’Amico, Jeff Roland, and Mary Hughes. time because each meeting is self-contained; participants do not have to attend in sequence. “I got something out of each session,” Trace commented. She pointed out that at times, friendship groups have formed outside of GriefShare. “Over the summer, we had little potluck dinners once a month, so we could still support each other throughout the summer,” she said. “You can make some nice friends.”
Sensenig Family Reunion Scheduled A Sensenig reunion and genealogy research day is planned for Saturday, Aug. 18, at the Hahnstown Mennonite School, 255 Hahnstown Road, Ephrata. Sensenig (Sensenich, Senseny, Senseney, Sensiney) is a Swiss name found especially among the Mennonites of Lancaster County. Attendees will be able to view their Sensenig genealogy and update their family information starting at 10:30 a.m. Attendees should also bring a hot and cold dish if they plan to stay for the meal at noon. A donation will be accepted to cover expenses. The guest speaker, Mark Hostetter, will share about the “Beliefs and Practice of the Mennonite Immigrants.” There will be a committee meeting following the reunion for anyone who is interested in attending. Volunteers are welcome to help update their family’s genealogy. The committee has compiled information on the descendants of Jacob and Maria Krey Sensenig, who immigrated from Switzerland around 1717. The committee will not add births, deaths, and marriages that occur after Dec. 31, but organizers will continue to update events occurring prior to Dec. 31. The work will be offered on a computer disc for a fee. Plans to publish a Sensenig Encyclopedia are under discussion. Maps will be available to visit the Sensenig Farm Cemetery located off of White Oak Road. Anyone who thinks they may be a Sensenig descendent or wants to find out is encouraged to attend the reunion. For more information, readers may call Sally Shirk at 717-464-1614 or email imashirk@comcast.net with subject line: Sensenig Genealogy.
Some people repeat the entire course or just the sessions that deal with a particular topic. Also, people who have a recent loss are welcome to attend the program again after some time has passed. “I wanted to go through it again to see where I was and to see how far I’ve come from the first time,” Trace said, explaining why she participated in the course a second time. “You get little workbooks, and I
could see the difference from the first time I went to the class to the second time. I’ve come further than I thought.” For more information about the GriefShare session at Gateway Church or to register, readers may visit www.gcwired. com/griefshare or email grief share@gatewayonechurch.com.

Jazalynn Diaz (left) was named the July Youth of the Month at the Lighthouse Youth Center (LYC) by director Buzz Tyson.

Jen Chapin To Offer Concert The Jen Chapin Duo, composed of Jen Chapin, the daughter of the late singer Harry Chapin, and guitarist Jamie Fox, will return to the Friends Folk Club on Friday, Aug. 10. The concert will be held at St. Christopher’s Episcopal Church, 116 Lancaster Pike, Oxford. Doors will open at 7 p.m.; the concert will start at 7:30 p.m. Food trucks will be on-site at 5:30 p.m., so audience members may arrive early to eat dinner outdoors under a canopy before the show. Like her father, Jen is an accomplished singer and songwriter, with a commitment to fighting world hunger. Attendees are asked to bring nonperishable food items that will be given to local food cupboards. Jen’s music is described as “urban folk soul,” and she features musical storytelling in her music,
like her father, who was known for his 1970s hit “Cat’s in the Cradle.” Jen’s accomplishments include being featured on “Late Night With Conan O’Brien,” being honored by the USA Songwriting Competition, appearing on stage with Bruce Springsteen and opening for Bruce Hornsby and the Neville Brothers. Tickets to the concert will be sold at the door. The Friends Folk Club is an allvolunteer, community-run concert series. It has been in operation in southern Chester County for more than 20 years. For more information, readers may call 610-869-8076, email friendsfolkclub@aol.com or search for “The Friends Folk Club” on Facebook.
