Final impressions by TONY ANDROCKITIS The Home News Sports
While the final games of the regular season don’t mean anything for the Philadelphia Flyers in terms of points earned in the standings, for guys like forward Nick Cousins and defenseman Brandon Manning – called up to the Flyers from Lehigh Valley (AHL) in recent weeks - the final games mean a lot more than wins and losses. “Every day is a trial for me,” Cousins said after Sunday’s 4-1 win over the Pittsburgh Penguins. “Every day I have to try and prove to the coaching staff that I want

the Flyers. “I feel alright,” said Cousins when asked about playing in the NHL. “It’s a tough league, right? It’s the best league in the world. Guys are a lot bigger and faster and you don’t have that much time with the puck.” “There’s a lot of structure through the neutral zone and there’s not much room out
there,” Cousins mentioned. “I’m adjusting everyday a little bit better. The more time I’m here, the more comfortable I get.” Cousins has been held off the score sheet through his first eight NHL games, though he’s been relegated to fourth line duties since his arrival in mid-March. “Obviously I want to get that first one under my belt,” Cousins mentioned when asked about his goal in the final games of the season, adding, “I think I can play at this level. I’m just trying to stay positive right now and take it day

by day. It’s a privilege to be here and I’m just trying to have fun with it.” While Cousins is looking to make a final impression before getting ready for Flyers training camp next fall, Manning – a fourth year pro playing out the final year of his contract – is in a completely different situation in the final games of the season. “Yeah, no question,” Manning said when asked about how important these final games are for him. “Being a free agent and wanting to prove myself that I can play at this level, these seven games will be the most consecutive I have played in my career. To prove to the Flyers and everyone else that I can stay up here, play my game and eat up some minutes.” With several defensemen in the Flyers organization signed through next season and a bunch of highly-touted prospects waiting in the wings, Manning is at a bit of a crossroads in his pro hockey career. He has played well at the AHL level this season, but hasn’t had much of a chance to show what he’s capable of on NHL ice. These games with Philadelphia not only give Manning a chance to leave a final impression with the Flyers’ management staff but also with the other 29 NHL organizations that could possibly be interested in his services for
next season should the Flyers opt not to re-sign him. “Every shift is an opportunity. I try to keep it one game at a time, period by period. Finish the season strong and then see what happens. Hopefully we can figure something out with the

Park pavilion that was built last year following a hurricane that heavily damaged the original pavilion. . . .She also said there will be a “Mayor Bowl” competition between Nazareth’s Mayor Carl Strye and herself. Other Matters • Councilman Michael Reph reported that a recent inspection of the municipal building showed that the roof is leaking, bricks need to be replaced at one end of the building, and that the chimney needs repairing. Price quotes were received and they will be discussed at next week’s council workshop with the engineer and the public works department. It is a rubber roof that is showing a widening of nail holes. Reph said if repaired, it could last another five years before any further roofing is required. • Councilwoman Kathryn Roberts announced that she and her husband have purchased a home in Upper Nazareth Township, and she will have to give up her seat on Council. It could take several months, however, and other members of Council
and solicitor Blake Marles said that she could stay on with two residences temporarily, using her license. The Roberts family has resided at Main & Northampton Sts. for seven years, and with a three-year-old child, she is worried that the child could be hurt by fast-moving traffic at the intersection. • The owner of Dunkin’ Donuts noted his dilemma with Bank St. and money that is owed by the building owner, and the money that he owes for engineering fees and legal services. It’s a financial problem that Council said they would discuss further. On the agenda it was reported that Campbell Real Estate Holdings LLC never responded to

Police Blotter Theft at Wal-Mart
On April 1 at 5:39 p.m., Police were called to Wal-Mart in lower Nazareth Township after the store’s loss prevention observed a female selecting multiple merchandise items and placing them in re-usable shopping bags and a shopping cart. The female, Jayne Guadagnino of Easton, was stopped as she attempted to leave the store without paying. She was taken into custody and arraigned on one charge of retail theft. The total value of stolen items was $211.84.
Bust at Sam’s Club
On April 1, a man by the name of Michael Platt of Easton was finally identified by loss prevention for committing multiple retail thefts at two different Sam’s Club locations-Lower Nazareth Township and Hanover Township in Lehigh County. On 34 different occasions between Oct. 1, 2014 and March 9, 2015, Platt entered the stores, selected merchandise and then proceeded to the self-checkouts. He would under-ring items and only ring up inexpensive items multiple times. After reviewing security videos, several more expensive items were found in his cart that were not paid for. Platt admitted to the thefts upon being interviewed by police. In total, he failed to pay for $3918 worth of merchandise from Easton’s Sam’s Club and $2610.27 from Allentown’s Sam’s Club. He was arraigned on a felony charge of retail theft.
More Wal-Mart Theft
On March 14 around 2:30 p.m., Colonial Regional Police
were dispatched to Wal-Mart in lower Nazareth for retail theft. Once police arrived they made contact with loss prevention and were alerted of a man exiting the store with two computer monitors that he failed to pay for. The man entered a gray Chevy and fled the scene. 45 minutes later, Officers returned and observed the vehicle attempting to leave the parking lot for a second time. A vehicle stop was put in motion and the stolen merchandise was recovered. The total value of stolen goods was $780. The man was taken in to custody, processed and charged with retail theft. He was unable to post his $30,000 bail and was remanded to the custody of Northampton County Prison.
Throat Cancer Survivor On His Successful Treatment
Submitted by DENISE RADER It’s been nine years since Harry Folk of Palmer Township had a scare with throat cancer. He is able to talk about his journey, literally, thanks to the treatment he received at St. Luke’s. The treatment plan recommended by his cancer team not only removed his cancer, but preserved his voice and ability to swallow without difficulty. Like so many other ordinary evenings, Harry was enjoying a quiet evening watching TV with his wife in May 2006. While rubbing his neck, he felt a lump. He had no pain in his neck or sore throat so he was not overly concerned. At his wife’s urging, however, he decided to have it checked out; he scheduled an appointment with his family doctor. To Harry’s surprise, the doc-

tor saw redness when he looked at his throat. He tested for strep and prescribed an antibiotic, which did nothing to clear up the redness or the lump. As a result, his physician referred him to David Yen, MD, an ears, nose and throat physician, who identified a mass at the base of Harry’s tongue. Through a biopsy, Dr. Yen confirmed the mass to be cancer of the oral pharynx. “You could have knocked my wife and me over with a feather,” Harry says. Smoking and chewing tobacco increase the risk of head and neck cancers. Harry did smoke cigarettes for about five years, quitting in 1980. He also chewed smokeless tobacco for about 15 years, quitting in 1998. The progression of cancer is classified by four stages identifying extent and severity. At the time of diagnosis, Harry’s cancer had already spread to the lymph node, which meant his disease advanced to stage IV. At this stage, the five-year survival rate of head and neck cancer is only 30 percent. Knowing they needed to begin treatment as soon as possible, Dr. Yen presented Harry with his treatment options. Harry opted to treat the cancer aggressively by having both chemotherapy and radiation therapy concurrently. Dr. Yen aligned the treatment team consisting of St. Luke’s medical oncologist Subhash Proothi, MD and St. Luke’s radiation oncologist Nicholas Cardiges, MD. Treatment began in June 2006. Dr. Cardiges explained that surgery was an option, but due to the tumor’s location at the base of the tongue close to the voice box, the voice box would need to be removed and, as a result, Harry would not be able to speak and would have difficulty swallowing. Dr. Cardiges prescribed radiation treatment five days a week for seven weeks at St. Luke’s Cancer Center, Bethlehem. Harry received Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT), an advanced form of treatment that precisely targets the tumor while sparing surrounding healthy tissue. Because IMRT is so precise, the oncologist can administer higher, more effective doses of radiation with fewer side effects, according to Dr. Cardiges. Meanwhile, Harry received three courses of Cisplatin, a chemotherapy medication. The cornerstone of treatment for throat cancer, Cisplatin is a platinum-

compound chemotherapy drug that stops cancer cells from growing, causing them to die, Dr. Proothi says. Chemotherapy drugs not only make radiation work better, but also are effective in attacking cancer cells that may have already escaped from the primary site and be in circulation ready to settle somewhere, Dr. Proothi says. Dr. Cardiges says the combination of the two treatments is effective, but not easy. After a couple of weeks of radiation, Harry’s throat became very sore. He had dryness of the mouth and pain when swallowing. In fact, Harry says he did not eat solid foods from July 16 until just before Labor Day weekend. Surviving on a liquid diet, he lost 25 pounds. The discomfort was well worth the benefits, however. “The radiation melted away the tumor in the tonsil and right oral pharynx region,” Dr. Cardiges says. “He was cured. And now, after more than five years, the chance of recurrence is very low.” As for Harry, he says the experience gave him an entirely different perspective on life, an insight into what’s important and what’s not. And as for care at St. Luke’s, “I couldn’t be more pleased with my physicians, the treatment I had and the outcome,” he says. “I will always be grateful to them.” About St. Luke’s Head and Neck Cancer Team Approach: The St. Luke’s University Health Network employs a team-approach to diagnose and treat head and neck cancers. This refers to any cancer of the mouth, throat, voice box, nose and sinuses. At St. Luke’s, the Head and Neck Cancer Team meets routinely to review cases and con-

sider treatment options, says medical oncologist Subhash Proothi, MD. The team includes surgeons, medical oncologists, radiation oncologists, otolaryngologists (ears, nose and throat), dentists, physical, occupational and speech therapists, oncology nurse navigators and dietitians. The goal of treatment is to rid the patient of cancer with as few side effects as possible, explains radiation oncologist Nicholas Cardiges, MD. Years ago, cancer patients would receive radiation or chemotherapy separately. Today it is common for patients to receive treatment concurrently. As a result, the team works together to manage the patient’s overall care. Risk Factors for Developing Head and Neck Cancers “Historically, 90 percent of head and neck cancers occurred in smokers and heavy drinkers,” says otolaryngologist (ears, nose and throat physician) David Yen, MD. “What we’re finding now is that human papillomavirus (HPV) – the same virus that causes warts and cervical cancer – also plays a role in head and neck cancers. In fact, having a history of multiple sexual partners seriously increases the risk of head and neck cancers.” Still, smoking and chewing tobacco remain the biggest risk factors. Symptoms Often head and neck cancers exhibit few or no symptoms until the disease reaches advanced stages. According to Dr. Yen, the most common symptom is a painless lump in the neck that lasts for three weeks, a month or more. Another common symptom is hoarseness or a persistent change in voice. “The key here is persistent voice change, not just Continued on page 5

Five Ways to Design or Grow Your Brand hoarseness Trader Joe’s, Whole Foods, Panera Bread, Apple Store, IKEA, Cracker Barrel, Cold Stone Creamery, Hilton Hotels, Rita’s Italian Ice, JW Marriott, Jamba Juice, Starbucks, and Bed Bath & Beyond. You might think I’m listing some of my favorite places, however, Entrepreneur Magazine voted these brands as part of the Top 120 Most Trusted Brands. My guess is you, as a business owner, want to be on this list. Now you may say, “well, they are all well-known national brands” and you are right, but what about the brands in the Lehigh Valley? If we did a survey on the top 50 most trusted brands in the Valley, would your biz appear on that list? According to Business Dictionary, branding is the process involved in creating a unique name and image for a product in a consumers’ mind. When you are creating your brand one of the most important thoughts in that process is what differentiates you from your competition and how the brand can attract loyal customers. How can you start today to design or grow your brand? Name and logo matter - get it right the first time, try to think about what would attract a new customer. Provide value - create your word of mouth epidemic- teach the Lehigh Valley who you are and what you do. Build your brand - with extravagant customer service and customer loyalty, let others talk about you. Use your face - sometimes you are the face of your business, don’t be shy.... use it and use it again. Don’t oversell - educate your future customers, there’s nothing worse then someone being in
By CAROL RITTER your face selling all the time. I ran out of time this year when it came to Easter shopping, so I pretty much did it all at one store. I walked in and a woman said to me, “can I help you?” I said, “no thank you.” Then another woman approached, “can I help you?” And another and another...by the time I left the store six people had said hello and reached out to help me. I thought, “Whoa, mega-customer service training right here in the Lehigh Valley!” Now some may think that was overkill, but honestly for me it was refreshing because poor customer service seems to be everywhere. By the way, more brands on the list were Titos, Makers Mark, Hendricks, Knob Creek, Ketel and Grey Goose (go figure!).

because you have a cold or yelled too much during an Eagles game,” he says. A persistent sore throat or one that lasts a long time is a sign of head and neck cancer. Persistent ear pain is another frequent symptom. Steps the Patient Can Take to Improve Outlook Dr. Yen says there are four things someone with cancer can do to improve the likelihood that their treatment will be effective: 1. Control his or her attitude. If the patient doesn’t want to fight, there’s not much the care provider can do. 2. Eat a balanced diet. 3. Seek out treatment from experienced providers offering advanced treatment options. 4. Get outside support from spouse, children, friends or a faith community. “Once you have cancer, you will need a lifetime of care,” Dr. Yen says. “It’s important that you know your care team well and you have faith in them.”

Gab over the Fence
by Pete G. Ossip
Spring is finally here, and we can put away our winter jackets and coats. The thermometer said 60 degrees on Sunday, and it may have been that, but it still felt a little colder because of the breeze. Monday was a different story. It did feel and look like spring. I saw my first two robins, and they were hopping around like it was spring. And the leaves of tulips and daffodils are popping outta the ground. Spring has sprung! Don’t ya love it?! . . . . The “snow birds” will be coming home from their winter retreats, missing all that bitter cold weather we had. . . .Baseball has started, too, and that helps make spring official. The predictions aren’t very good for the Phillies, but who knows. They may surprise us. Opening day was a real disappointment, with Hamels giving up four solo homers and Diekman a grand slam, for an 8-0 loss to the Red Sox. Oh well. That Cardinals – Cubs game on Sunday, though, was a bummer, too. I even turned it off for another program. Just couldn’t stand to see how sloppy the Cubs played. . . . I’m writing this ahead of the Final Four showdown in basketball. Wisconsin played great against Kentucky, but there’s no way they can beat Coach K’s Duke team. They aren’t my favorite team by a long shot. Just can’t bear the coach, but he always seems to pull the right strings. . . . My sympathies to the families of Franklin “Mac” Wagner in town and Ed Uherick over in Northampton. Both men passed away last week. Franklin’s daughter-in-law, Jeannie, works with Margie Rehrig at the Bath Food Bank, and his memorials are for that good purpose. Gather up some extra canned goods, folks, and do it for “Mac”. . . . Herb
Silfies had a real nice trip out to California, getting out there for his granddaughter’s wedding. . . . Rev. Harold and “Boozie” Henning really need our prayers for the illnesses they’re having. And also for Nancy Wagner, Eddie’s wife. . . . Less than a week to go till the April 15 tax deadline. Reckon they call this crunch time. . . . We didn’t have ham for Easter dinner, so a couple good ham dinners coming up soon at local churches oughta take care of that problem. I hope everybody had a happy Easter. . . . Time to check the garage for my rakes and other tools ‘cause now that it’s getting warmer it’s yard cleanup time too. Have a great week, everybody!

ers market and how they can be linked. The discussion also noted who owns them and how they are ordained. • Mulberry Properties LP was released from having to use J. P. Mascaro & Sons for trash removal when the owner said he has the Chrin Co., preferring garbage bags over a dumpster. • Engineer Ryan Christman reported that a grant application has been applied for reconstruction of Old Forge Drive. It was evident on a number of fronts at Monday’s meeting that a new borough manager is an immediate need to help solve many issues that are confusing. Council is working on finding a replacement ever since Petrucci left office for a similar position in Plainfield Township. As the meeting drew to an end, Councilwoman George suggested that some recreation money be spent on the historic Siegfried Log Cabin to prevent further deterioration. . . .Resident Larry Whiteside suggested that utility poles downtown be moved off sidewalks to beautify the borough. Both those issues may be discussed at the workshop next week.

Six Common Myths About Pet Allergies (NAPS)—According to The Humane Society, 62 percent of American households have at least one pet. Yet an estimated 31 million Americans are allergic to animals, including up to 30 percent of those who have asthma. For these people, congestion, sneezing, runny nose and other allergic symptoms occur whenever they are exposed to common household pets. It helps to understand how pets can trigger allergies and what steps can help protect you. Below are six common misconceptions about pet allergies. By knowing the truth about these myths, you can take action to live comfortably with the pets in your life. Myth #1: It’s only pet hair—especially cat hair—that causes allergies to flare up. Not true. Pet hair is a nuisance and causes allergies, as it contains saliva or other pet proteins. Allergic reactions to pets are actually caused by pet proteins contained in pet dander such as microscopic skin flakes, and also in saliva and urine. Overactive immune systems in those with allergies attack these otherwise harmless substances. Animals with more fur are more likely to carry other allergens such as pet dander and dust, according to the American Lung Association (ALA). If you have a pet, not only do you need to handle pet hair carefully, you also need to clean household dust carefully, as it may contain pet dander that can trigger allergic reactions. Myth #2: Continuous exposure to animals will eventually desensitize you to them. Not only is this not true, but in some cases, the opposite is true. If you have a confirmed allergy to animals, whether you are a child or adult, it usually will not get better through increasing exposure. In fact, it may get worse. That’s according to the Australasian Society of Clinical Immunology and Allergy. However, studies have confirmed that early childhood exposure to cats, dogs and other animals may lower the risk of developing allergic reactions later in life. In one study of 8,000 children, researchers found that children continuously exposed to cats from the time they were 1 year old were 67 percent less likely than others to develop allergic asthma. Myth #3: If you just get the right breed of dog/cat/etc., you won’t have allergy problems. Not true. All cat and dog breeds produce dander. However, some breeds are believed to be better for allergy sufferers than other breeds. Typically, the best breeds are those that shed the least fur and/or are the most frequently bathed. Also, smaller dogs produce less saliva than do bigger dogs. The American Kennel Club recommends breeds that produce the least dander for allergy sufferers. Those breeds include poodles, terriers, schnauzers, bichon frises and others. Myth #4: Small animals are not a problem for allergies.
April 9-15, 2015 9
Wrong. Hamsters, guinea pigs, birds and other warm-blooded mammals can also trigger asthma and allergies in people with allergies to animal dander, according to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. Birds are also a major problem for many allergy sufferers, as birds release dander into the air through activities such as cleaning their feathers, flapping their wings and flying. If you are allergic to animals but still want a pet, consider animals without dander like a fish, turtle or other reptile. Myth #5: Outside the home, you shouldn’t have pet allergy problems. Not necessarily. Because of their microscopic size and jagged shape, pet allergens easily stick to clothing and other fabrics and are carried to other locations. Animal dander—in sufficient levels to cause allergies—can be found in many public places such as the workplace, classrooms and hospitals, according to the ALA. Those with severe allergies may also want to avoid the homes of family and friends who have the type of pet that irritates their allergies. Myth #6: An air purifier will help with pet allergies. It depends on the air purifier. Only a high-performance air purifier can help. Some allergy sufferers report that small, lowquality air cleaners make little or no difference at all. However, many allergy sufferers report that their IQAir air purifier in combination with improved cleaning methods has reduced or completely eliminated their allergic reactions to pets in their homes. For more information on how to clean pet dander or take other steps to gain control over pet allergens, visit www.iqair.com. You and your pets can get along better if you take steps to stop their dander from aggravating your allergies.

NAZARETH AREA
Skate park discussed at Nazareth meeting by DAVE SICA Nazareth’s workshop meeting on April 2 welcomed a person who spoke about the skate park located at the Borough Park on Center Street. Mike Fauerbach came to update borough council on progress at the park, a personal project he requested to take on last year. Fauerbach told the council that he expected the skate park to be up and running before the pool opening on May 17. He regaled all the help his friends, volunteers and other businesses have given him, donating time and money towards Nazareth’s only skate park. Fauerbach also brought up the issue of lifting the ban on BMX bike riders using the park, as his final plans include a special section for the bikes. Council seemed to agree with his plans, however allowing scooters access is still in question. Councilman Frank Maurek added that the skate park will be closed until the final week in May, while construction is in progress. Councilman Lance Colando announced his, and the select committee’s, motion to nominate Randy Brown to Emergency Management Director in the borough. Brown wasn’t confirmed until the council meeting on Monday night. “The
job might seem daunting, but if taken piece by piece it will be much easier,” Brown said. He also plans on forming strategic alliances with businesses in Nazareth. Councilman Charles Donello announced there would be a motion to advertise the electrical work that needs to be done in the circle. The poles that need to be replaced in the circle have not been decided on yet and the banner program is waiting on communication for where they will be located. A motion for a deal with Met-Ed to cover the costs for banners needed was made Monday. Councilman Brian Regn discussed the Nazareth eBay account. Pictures have been taken of surplus borough equipment for sale and have been posted on the online auction site. He stated that he was in the process of establishing a PayPal account that will be used in tandem with eBay. Everything will be up and running in a “week or so,” Regn said. There was also an idea proposed by Councilman John Samus regarding borough real estate taxes. He discussed switching to staggered payments for collection. Samus posited that citizens are hit hard with taxes in March and can use some help.

Pieces of History Submitted by SUE DREYDOPPEL Nazareth 275th Anniversary Committee - On April 12, 1745, the Moravian apple orchard in Nazareth was surveyed. It was located south of the “stone house” (the Whitefield House). “Orchard Street,” the alley just south of the Whitefield House, was named in its memory. - Famous Nazareth resident: Barbara Troxell, opera singer. A soprano, she was born in Nazareth. Her career included performances at Carnegie Hall and the Metropolitan Opera, and solo recordings of Mozart. - When the first cement mill (Phoenix) was built and opened at the “west end” of Nazareth around 1900, the village of Phoenix developed to house the workers. In December of 1948 the village was annexed into Nazareth Borough. - From 1948 – 1950 Nazareth’s pro baseball team was called the Nazareth Barons . Attendance steadily declined over those years, and in the 1950 season, the team finished last in the North Atlantic League. Thus ending professional baseball in Nazareth. - In the late 1940s and early ‘50s there were many restaurants and places for teens to meet after school in Nazareth: Hommer’s Restaurant (which later became Carldon’s), Sam’s, Heckman’s Drug Store & Soda Fountain, J&M’s, Swavely’s Fountain, and Nicholsen’s. - The Martin D-35 guitar, introduced in 1965, is celebrating its 50th Anniversary in 2015. With its distinctive 3-piece back, the D-35 has helped to conserve precious rosewood by utilizing smaller pieces that would otherwise be discarded. - Many years ago, in the 1940s, the Nazareth merchant’s association decided to close the downtown Nazareth stores on Wednesday afternoons because they were open all day on Saturdays. The stores also closed from noon to 3 p.m. on Good Friday.

On the farm: just tell me that Spring is going to stick around
Submitted by JAN GRAVER, Graver Farmstead Like the rest of you, we have had enough winter work this year. To help you know what happens on the farm in the winter, let me explain a day. • Animals need to get fed daily, whether it is cold and windy or not. • They need to have their water in liquid form not frozen. • They need shelter from the wind. So each day, twice a day, we go out in the cold winter weather,

plow the snow away and feed them. This winter was extremely difficult for them because of the frigid temperatures. The animals receive extra bedding to help keep them warm. The adult pigs also snuggled together in their house to keep warm. It was pretty funny because they would come out, get their corn and take it back to the house to eat it. The eggs had to be collected several times a day to keep them from freezing. It was crazy. One morning I forgot the basket and used a bucket to collect the back coup. Then went to the front coup and collected them in the basket. Took both containers to the garage to put together and the eggs on the bottom of the bucket were frozen to the bucket in the little bit of water on the bottom. Augh! We dressed in several layers of clothing or wore lined bib overalls with heavy coats. I felt like I was wearing twenty pounds of clothing when trying to get in and out of buildings. By the time
you fought the wind and cold, you were tired. We fed the beef herd large round bales of balge (fermented hay). That took longer to do and when it was cold, you had trouble with your fingertips getting too cold. But last night, I was able to go out without my twenty pounds of clothing. Everyone was outside enjoying the air, no wind, and still light out. It looks like we made it. Garden I have vegetable seedlings started and under lights. Hopefully, they get out to the garden at a reasonable planting date. Everything here is still under snow. It is melting, but slowly. I continue to follow organic practices in my gardens, using organic pesticides and sometimes just simple soap. Markets See you at the markets! We are bringing meat and vegetables to Bath Farmers Market, Nazareth Market in the Square and Northampton Farmers Market on Main Street.

Conviction Of Sin In his book, The Passion For Souls, Oswald J. Smith says, “When a man is convicted of his lost condition he will cry out in the bitter anguish of his heart: 'What must I do to be saved?' He will need no urging, no coaxing; it is a matter of life or death to him, and he will do anything to be saved. John Bunyan understood it well when he pictured Christian with his great load of sin on his back, and described his exercise of soul until he got rid of his burden at the foot of the Cross. God has placed His own value on His Word. He calls it a 'Fire,' a 'Hammer,' and a 'Sword.' Now fire burns; a blow from a hammer hurts; while a cut from a sword causes real pain. And when His Word is proclaimed in the power of the anointing it will have exactly the same results. It will burn like fire, break like a hammer and pierce like a sword, and the spiritual or mental pain will be just as severe and real as the physical. And if not, then there is something wrong either with the messenger or the message.” Conviction of sin occurs when one becomes aware of the awfulness of his sin against God. Such sensitivity to the guilt of sin is required for true salvation, “For godly sorrow worketh repentance to salvation” (2 Corinthians 7:10). This convincing of sin is the work of the Holy Spirit Whom Jesus said “will reprove the world of sin” (John 16:8). This reproving of sin by the Holy Spirit confirms the truth of the preaching of the gospel as we see in Acts 2:23 & 37 where Peter boldly accused the Jews that they “by wicked hands have crucified” Jesus. “Now when they heard this, they were pricked in their heart, and said…what shall we do?” Peter told them to repent and 3,000 did. In Acts 24:25, Felix experienced this conviction of sin and “trembled” as Paul “reasoned of righteousness, temperance, and judgment to come.” May God give us courageous preachers of biblical truth like Peter and Paul “in this adulterous and sinful generation” (Mark 8:38).
with various prizes in recognition for their achievement in the Lehigh Valley Polish Water Ice competition. These amazing prizes included: $1,050 in Visa gift cards and $150 in Polish Water Ice gift cards.

Throughout the month of February, teams presented their proposals to Mr. Charlie in order to determine the overall winners. The winning students were awarded the following prizes: Overall Best Website: A tie between “Lions, Tigers, and Polish Water Ice” by Harley Bender, Katy Hartzell, and Jadon Barnett and “Twisted Tuesdays” by Jacob Savage, and Kaitlyn Gardineer.
