Sadsbury Friends Meeting to host Peace Tea

Reaching out and giving back

BY ANN MEAD ASH

When Amanda Hall, director of marketing with Bank of Bird-in-Hand, contacts a nonprofit organization for the bank’s employee giving program, she likes to ask about specific needs. “That has been really helpful,” she noted, adding that one food pantry she contacted told her that having manual can openers to give away is really helpful. “If you’re living in your car or a hotel, it’s good to have a can opener,” Hall pointed out. “Not every can has a pop top.”

Sadsbury Friends Meeting, a Quaker house of worship that is observing its 300th anniversary this year, is planning a Peace Tea fundraiser on Saturday, May 11, from 2 to 4 p.m. The event, which will offer attendees an assortment of teas and traditional high tea fare, will take place in the downstairs community room at the Meeting, 1089 Simmontown Road, Gap, located one half-mile east of Route 41.

Proceeds from ticket sales will benefit the Quaker United Nations Office (QUNO), a non-governmental organization that represents the Quakers, also known as the Religious Society of Friends, at the United Nations.

With offices in Geneva and New York City, QUNO aims to represent Friends’ concerns for

international justice and peace.

“Because we are raising money to donate to QUNO, an organization that works for world peace, we named the (event) Peace Tea,” explained Meeting member Connie Webster, noting that information about QUNO will be displayed at the event.

Meetinghouse members will provide traditional tea cups and saucers and individual teapots. Both tea bags and loose tea made using an infuser will be provided. “We will have sandwiches and scones and there will be other sweets like cookies. We have different people making shortbread cookies and scones,” noted Webster. “We will have different varieties of hot tea, like regular black tea and herbal teas.”

Gluten-free and vegetarian options will be offered, and peanut butter and jelly sandwiches will be available for children.

Citizen scientists sought

“This is open to everyone,” said Linda Saad, representative of the ELANCO Source Water Collaborative. Saad is seeking volunteers to collect and test water samples from streams throughout northeastern Lancaster County, where she noted no creeks are currently being monitored. “We have no volunteers,” explained Saad. “We may have some recommendations for streams we’d like to have monitored. We’d like to get some data on the upper Conestoga, but (volunteers) can pick a stream in this area.”

Saad pointed out that the purpose of the Water Quality Volunteer Coalition (WQVC) will be to obtain information. “More than 50% of the 140 miles of streams in this county are compromised,” said Saad, who noted that watching for evidence of the effectiveness of restoration projects, such as planting trees around streams, is a goal. “We will see changes in temperature and water quality … (and) changes in sedimentation and runoff,” she noted.

The long-term water testing project is a partnership between the Lancaster County Conservation

Bank of Bird-in-Hand employees who are giving back to the community include (from left) Mark Carnevale, Lydia Cochran, Malachi Glick, Tracy Graybeal, and Terry Showalter.

Cultural education

BY ANN MEAD ASH

A small group of Garden Spot Village residents and staff members has worked for a number of years to introduce the local community to the varied cultures represented in the area.

Group member Karyn Nancarvis said the members now refer to themselves as Tapestry, but the collective has also gone by the names Racial Literacy and Cultural Awareness. “We meet once a month … to find ways to educate our community and foster awareness of other cultures,” Nancarvis noted.

This May, Tapestry has scheduled three events that will delve into the history of the Hispanic population in Lancaster County and specifically in New Holland. The first, which will be held in the Garden Spot Village chapel, 433 S. Kinzer Ave., New Holland, at 7 p.m. on Wednesday, May 8, will be called Latino Experience in New Holland, and it will feature a number of speakers. The event is free and open to the public.

Promise Players post fundraiser dinner theater

The Promise Players will present a dinner theater production, “The Case of the Duplicate Date Nut Loaf,” on Friday, May 17, at 6 p.m. and on Saturday, May 18, at noon and 6 p.m. All performances will be held at Lampeter Church of the Brethren, 1900 Lampeter Road, Lancaster.

In the show, Inspector Casey Solved is called to a local church’s bake sale and bazaar. As usual, Lillian “Lil” O’Laydee has baked her famous date nut loaf using her family’s secret recipe. However, someone else has also baked a date nut loaf and put it on the bake sale table beside Lil’s. The inspector will investigate whether Lil’s recipe was stolen, and the audience will vote on which character they

believe is the culprit.

The event is a fundraiser for The Promise Players’ tech fund, and tickets must be reserved at http:// promiseplayers.org.

The Promise Players has raised more than $275,000 for local charities over the past 28 years. Now some of the organization’s sound and tech equipment must be replaced. The Promise Players prefers to send all money raised from its shows to the named beneficiary, so it hopes that the dinner theater will raise $30,000 for the new equipment.

The Promise Players’ mission is to provide Christ-centered entertainment for the public and financial gifts to nonprofit organizations in the community.

will also be held. The first will be held on Tuesday, May 21, and the second will depart on Friday, May 24. There is a cost to take part in the bus trips.

The May 8 event will feature Don Horning, board member with the New Holland Area Historical Society, discussing how Victor Weaver offered stable employment to Hispanic migrant workers. He will bring copies of the book “The Story of Victor F. Weaver” by Allan W. Shirk to the event. Miriam Gonzales Lauver will speak on the beginnings of the Spanish Mennonite Church in New Holland, and Ramona Rivera Santiago and Paul Hess, pastor of Rawlinsville Mennonite Church, will discuss the migrant worker experience in that area. Jesus Cruz will discuss

the Hispanic experience in the city of Lancaster from historical and current perspectives.

The May 21 bus trip will begin by visiting the site of the former New Holland Spanish Mennonite Church in a basement room at 209 E. Main St. Horning and Lauver are both expected to be present to discuss the origins of the church, which Lauver attended as a child, in that space. “The emotion of the people who went down the steps who had started their lives there as small children was palpable,” shared Horning. “I want to try to tell people of that.” From there, the bus will travel to the Bridgeport area, where the Ortega family from Mexico owned the land where the Lancaster Mennonite Church was built. The next stop will be Rawlinsville, where Hess will discuss the history of the early migrant workers. A trip to the Tomato Station in Holtwood will complete the tour.

The May 24 trip will also stop at the site of the former Spanish Mennonite Church before heading to the Spanish American Civic Association in Lancaster.

Cruz will distribute brochures about the center to tour takers. “The organization provides all kinds of different programs,” he said of the 51-year-old organization. “They are still there providing really valuable services in Spanish to the communityespecially to people coming in from Latino countries.”

Cruz mentioned that the organization provides training and help to gain an

40 years of Christ and community at WJTL 40 Fest

BY CATHY MOLITORIS

For four decades, WJTL has been a home for Christian programming, and the radio station wants to honor its legacy and longevity by giving back to the community. WJTL 40 Fest will be held on Saturday, May 18, at Cherry Crest Adventure Farm, 150 Cherry Hill Road, Ronks. The event will begin at noon and will wrap up with a headlining performance by Crowder, beginning at 8:15 p.m.

“We wanted a day to celebrate our 40th anniversary and decided a festival lineup at an outside venue would create the type of event perfect for a celebration,” said Phillip Miller, event and facilities director. “I had been talking with Cherry Crest Adventure Farm since 2022 about using their facility for an outside concert, and we

thought our 40th anniversary would be the perfect time to bring a great lineup of music to the property.”

The lineup for the festival includes Behold the Beloved, which will perform at 3 p.m.; Leanna Crawford, who will entertain at 4 p.m.; Rhett Walker, who will hit the stage at 5 p.m.; Cochren & Co, which will perform at 6 p.m.; Danny Gokey, who will play at 7 p.m.; and Crowder, who will close out the evening.

“40 Fest will be a day of family fun and great music focused on celebrating 40 years of living out our slogan, ‘Christ. Community. Music.’ Cherry Crest Adventure Farm will have their spring attractions open,” Miller shared. “We’re planning an event that everyone can enjoy, whether you’ve listened to WJTL since 1984 or 2024. 40 Fest will provide a fun day for all.”

WJTL’s story began in 1984, when the station was housed in a renovated chicken house across from Lancaster Bible College, recalled president Fred McNaughton.

“During this time, WJTL expanded its reach, going 24 hours and beginning to broadcast in stereo,

while also engaging with the community through various events, including a popular weekly roller skate to contemporary Christian music,” he said.

By the mid-1990s, WJTL had moved to a new location on Oregon Pike.

“WJTL also began inviting local organizations to the morning show to share their stories and promote their events,” McNaughton said.

In 2011, the station relocated to its current home at The Junction Center in Manheim. “The move to The Junction Center not only allowed WJTL to continue its community-focused approach, but it also provided a space to invite and host listeners and other community groups in new and engaging ways,” he said.

Through the years and all the changes, one thing is unchanged, he noted.

“WJTL’s core mission has remained steadfast: to play great Christian music that inspires and challenges its listeners, to serve its community with all its heart and to honor the Lord Jesus Christ in all it does,” he said.

As for the next 40 years, listeners can expect to continue to hear the live voices of friends in the community, said Stacey Gagne, vice president of operations.

“We want everyone who listens to be encouraged,

to find hope, and we believe all of those things are found in Jesus,” she stated. “In the next 40 years, we will continue to find new ways to connect with you and provide you with the great content that you expect from WJTL.”

The first official observance of Memorial Day’s predecessor, Decoration Day, took place on May 30, 1868. That year, 183 cemeteries in 27 states celebrated Decoration Day, and observance grew in the years that followed. By 1890, all the northern states had made it an official state holiday. The southern states began celebrating Decoration Day after World War I, when it changed from honoring Civil War dead to honoring the American dead of all wars.

Memorial Day, as we know it, came about in 1967, when Decoration Day was renamed Memorial Day. In 1968, it was permanently moved from May 30 to the last Monday in May to create a threeday weekend. It became an official federal holiday in 1971.

Despite the increasing celebration of the holiday as the beginning of the summer season, there are some informal, as well as

formal, rituals still on the books. Americans observe Memorial Day by visiting cemeteries and memorials and holding family gatherings. More formal rituals include hanging the American flag at half-staff until noon on Memorial Day, then raising it to the top of the staff. And since 2000, when the U.S. Congress passed legislation, all Americans are encouraged to pause for a National Moment of Remembrance at 3 p.m. local time.

Thousands of parades are held during Memorial Day in large and small cities throughout the United States. Most parades feature marching bands, servicemen, veterans and military vehicles from various wars. One such parade took place on June 6, 1971, in Gap when Route 41 was closed for services taking place at the Gap Town Clock.

In early 2019, the historical society was contacted by Jos Punie, a historian in Belgium, who said, “7 September 2019 would mark 75 years ago that our village Kortessem (Belgium) was liberated from German occupation

by American troops. Cpl. Clarence Hershey Wenger was one of two American soldiers killed in the fighting.”

Punie said the town was publishing a book about their village during World War II. He was requesting a photo and short biography of Wenger, who hailed from Salisbuty Township, so “he becomes more than just a name for our fellow villagers and will always be honored and remembered.” The society sent the following information, and the book was published later that year: Prior to enlisting in the U.S. Army Infantry on Dec. 7, 1942, at just 18 years of age, Clarence was a farmhand, living with his parents and siblings in Salisbury Township, Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. Cpl. Wenger, at the time a Technician 5th Grade with the 82nd Armored Reconnaissance Division, was killed in action on Sept. 7, 1944, at Kortessem, Arrondissement Tongeren, Limburg, Belgium. His final resting place is Hershey Mennonite Cemetery. He was

20 years old.”

Let us pause this Memorial Day to honor and remember all of those who made the ultimate sacrifice so that freedom may continue to ring throughout our nation, as well making it possible for freedom to ring in many other areas of the world. Our military heroes will not be forgotten, both here and in many foreign countries where their sacrifices have touched the lives of others forever.

Giving Trail to combat hunger

The second annual Giving Trail will take place on Saturday, May 4, in the 300 block of North Queen Street in Lancaster. This event is dedicated to collecting food and funds and raising awareness for local hunger-relief nonprofits.

From noon to 4 p.m., participants will embark on a journey through the

heart of Lancaster city visiting businesses such as Central Market Flowers, DROM, Lancaster Gift Box, the Bloom Room, and Decades, each showcasing the work of local hunger-relief organizations. Among the participating nonprofits are Meals on Wheels of Lancaster, Power Packs Project, Lancaster County Food Hub, the Wittel Farm Growing Project, and Water Street Mission.

Attendees will have the opportunity to donate a nonperishable food item or make a monetary contribution at each stop. Additionally, participants will receive a Giving Trail Passport at their first stop, and they may collect stamps at each location visited. Those who complete the trail will be entered into a drawing for a chance to win a prize donated by local businesses.

Power Packs Project will received all food donations collected during the event.

temperature and look for nitrates and oxygen. Regular biological testing will include searching for macroinvertebrates, insect larvae, and small aquatic life in the stream. “(Finding life) is an exceptional indicator of water quality,” noted Saad. Other volunteer work will include assessing whether the stream bank is stable and whether there are vegetation issues, such as the presence of invasive plants.

District, an organization working to enhance awareness of the relationship between human activities and the environment, and ELANCO Source Water Collaborative. “The WQVC is a group of local volunteers who care about their local streams and want to see how they’re doing,” said Amanda Goldsmith, watershed specialist with the Conservation District, who added that a number of county partners, volunteers, government agencies, and citizens are all working together to clean up local streams. “Through water quality monitoring, volunteers are able to help tell the story of local stream improvement,” Goldsmith explained.

“We will pair up with the Conservation District to train volunteers to begin monitoring various sites,” explained Saad, who added that water testing began about 20 years ago with the Senior Environment Corps working with the Office of Aging, but later, it became a more generalized program where any citizen could volunteer. “People need not be seniors. This is open to everyone,” said Saad.

Monthly requirements for volunteers will include chemical, biological, and physical testing. Volunteers will check water

“Once the training is complete, experienced mentors will accompany (volunteers) until they feel comfortable doing it themselves,” noted Saad, who pointed out that the Conservation District has a satellite site at Garden Spot Village (GSV), where volunteers will be able to pick up supplies for testing the water. Samples may be brought to GSV for testing and to enter results into a computer database. “The database is maintained by the county, and it’s available to any citizen group that wants to take a look at water quality in various areas of the county,” said Saad. “The program isn’t meant to create any kind of a regulatory atmosphere, (rather) it is done for awareness and so that professionals can keep an eye on the level of water quality issues in the county.”

According to Goldsmith, the WQVC sampling will provide volunteers with an opportunity to become an integral part of data collection. “Monitoring also identifies areas that aren’t improving and where restoration efforts are needed most,” she said.

Readers who are interested in volunteering in the program may email llsreply2@gmail.com or call the Terre Hill Borough at 717-445-4581.

Giving back from pg 1

Bank of Bird-in-Hand recently reached its 10 year anniversary, and Hall said the employee giving program - originally called the Jeans Day program - has been going on for several years. “Each month, they would select a nonprofit and make a suggested donation, and (employees who donated) could wear jeans that day,” said Hall. As dress codes evolved, the program changed and sometimes donation drives were mixed in with the giving program, which benefited a different local organization each month.

For 2024, Hall decided to change things up a little. Rather than choose one organization and collect a lot of different items, Hall decided to focus on a few designated items and spread them out to a number of organizations. In February, the employees collected bottles of laundry detergent, detergent pods, and other laundry supplies.

Employees in the five Lancaster County branches - located in Bird-in-Hand, Intercourse, Paradise, Ephrata, and Manheim - as well as outside the county, took part. “It was successful,” said Hall, who noted that more than 300 containers were collected and distributed to 10 organizations. “People don’t think of donating (detergent) to a food pantry,” she noted. “All the organizations were so appreciative.” Local nonprofits that received the donations included The Factory Market, Good Samaritan Services in Ephrata, Solanco Neighborhood Ministries, CrossNet Ministries, REAL Life Community Services in Denver, and the Manheim Central Food Pantry.

During the month of April, Hall connected the drive with Earth Day, focusing on repurposing items such as blankets, sheets, and towels for pet rescues including Pet Pantry of Lancaster County, Forgotten Friend Reptile Sanctuary, Raven Ridge Wildlife Center, Centerville Pet Rescue, and Eliannie Animal Rescue. Hall’s marketing assistant, Tory Aldinger, said that paper towel rolls and bleach were also requested.

In addition to donations, employees volunteer their time. In keeping with the Earth Day theme, volunteers picked up litter along a section of highway in Bird-in-Hand on April 25 as part of the Adopt-A-Highway program. “With The Factory Ministries, (bank) staff members help out with big bingo events held in September and December,” noted Hall. “It’s a lot of fun. The staff enjoys helping, and it’s a great way to connect with the people in our community.”

Looking ahead, Hall has been talking to local nonprofits about summer projects. “In June, when kids are out of school, they need snack foods and peanut butter and jelly,” she said. “I want to make sure (the nonprofits) are getting things they can use to meet the needs of the community.”
