Reamstown Scout Pack 60 Holds Year-End Ice Cream Social

Reamstown Scout Pack 60 celebrated the end of another great year with an Ice Cream Social and an extra special treat that included making Mark Ebersole (Cubmaster/

Scoutmaster Pack 60) into an ice cream sundae. This special event was done in appreciation of all the hard work the boys did with their fundraising efforts this year.

Scoutmaster Mark is shown at the beginning with three Scouts placing three scoops of ice cream on his head, while parents watch, and the inset photo is near the

end when Mark is covered in a generous coating of strawberry and chocolate syrup, sprinkles and whipped cream. Do you know any

boys in kindergarten through ninth grade interested in joining Scouting? If so, please contact Mark at 717629-9531.

Kent D. Weinhold

Kent D. Weinhold, 62, of Reinholds, passed away early Saturday morning, June 17, 2023, at Hospice and Community Care in Mount Joy after a courageous battle with cancer. Born in Ephrata, he was a son of Marian E. (Stoner) Weinhold and the late Clarence J. Weinhold Jr. Kent and his wife, Cathy (Harting) Weinhold would have celebrated 40 years of marriage this September.

Kent was a graduate of Cocalico High School, class of 1978. He worked at Steffy Printing in Ephrata and most recently at ITP in Elizabethtown in pre-press and graphic design. He loved working on outdoor projects. Kent’s labor of love was building decorative rock walls that included a collection of rocks he gathered from special places he visited. He also enjoyed collecting Breininger and Robesonia Redware pottery, a hobby he enjoyed with Cathy. When a piece of pottery broke, that too was added to the rock wall. His outdoor interests also included deer hunting and planting hosta. He had a heart for stray cats and accumulated a small collection of kitties – indoors and

out. Family and friends were a priority to Kent. His nieces and nephews lovingly called him, ‘GUK’ (Great Uncle Kent) and he was an influential Godparent. Kent was a kid at heart which made him so approachable and relatable to kids, particularly his nieces and nephews. He enjoyed a good find at an auction, being with friends, cold beer, and a cigarette. He was an avid reader of sci-fi novels and enjoyed learning about the mind. He enjoyed social gatherings and was a member of the Dutchman Hunting Camp and Reamstown Athletic Assoc. Kent was honest and hardworking, always lending a helping hand to any need. His battle with cancer is a testimony of his strength, grit, and tenacity.

In addition to his wife and mother, Kent is survived by a brother, James Weinhold, husband of Karen (Brady) of Schubert; three nephews, Chase, husband of Wendi Weinhold, Colton Weinhold, & Miles Weinhold; two nieces Abbey Rineer (Zach) & Emily Harting; three grandnephews & two grandnieces. Mother & father-in-law, J. Edwin & Faye Harting, sister in-law Bonnie Showalter (Jim); and brotherin-law Rick Harting (Sharon). In addition to his father, Kent was predeceased by two brothers, Rick Weinhold and Kirt D. Weinhold.

Contributions are appreciated in lieu of flowers to Reamstown Athletic Assoc, P.O. Box 306, Reamstown, PA 17567.or Hospice & Community Care, www.hospice andcommunitycare.org.

Cathy would like to thank Dr. Balepur, Amy Jo, Randy, and the team at ABBCI (Cancer Institute) for taking care of Kent and the caring team at Hospice & Community Care of Mount Joy for their comfort and care. The unfailing love, care, and support by family and friends during Kent’s journey was so valued and appreciated. And the Uber drivers whose presence was far more than a ride, thank you!

A celebration of life will be held at a later date.

Der Grempap Un Die Gremmemm (Conclusion)

By Anna F. Faust

Der Grempap verschteht net ferwas macht sei Faahre die Gremmemm so naerfich, Awwer er hot net uffgewwe, endlich hockt sie sich newe ihn fer noch die Karich;

Iwwerdem sin sie weiders gange. Ya, noch die gross Wasser-fall in Nei Yarick!

Der Grempap hofft, sie frogt net fer selwert faahre, un macht ihn noch naerfich.

Der Grempap waar en gsunder Mann un sei Lewes net viel grank;

Wann’s ihm iwwel waar, is er gange fer Satzdroppe im Schank.

Gschmokt un gflucht hot er net, wann er gedrunke hot, waar’s scheiheilichweis;

Der Parre daed doch saage, sei greeschder Fehler waert sei guder Geischt.

Es hot mol en yunger Gaul gscheit un is uff em Grempap sei Bruscht gedrede.

Der Grempap saagt, “Des is es End vun mir; ich farich mich fer mei Lewe.”

Mei Bruder hot er gschickt’s die Gremmemm saage, aldi Leindicher misse schnell bei:

“Un du, mei Bu, wickelscht mich uff, un schpannscht mich recht fescht nei!”

En anner Mol is em Grempap sei gleener Finger im Holzsaeg sei Weg kumme:

Er schickt sich farichtlos aa, bis em ebbes im Kopp aafangt brumme.

Doch hot er sich gschteibert fer ee Finger zum en Dokder geht er net, Awwer er daed en Sigaer nemme, wann ebber ihm eener gewwe wett.

Die Gremmemm waar hattschaffich un hot ihr Gflicht geduh;

Sie waar gutmeenich un fer annre helfe gebt sie uff ihr Ruh.

Ungeduldich waar sie yuscht eemol, wann der Grempap am lanne waar zu faahre. -

Sie hot der Grempap un uns verlosse an zwee un siwwezich Yaahre.

Ya, der Gremmemm is grank waare un in die alt Heemet is sie gschtarewe.

Der Grempap nau leenich hot Vendu gemacht un is zum Schteddel gezoge.

Fer sei Heemet hot er abgewexelt zwische sei Son un sei Dochder.

Er hot noch zwanzich Yaahre gelebt - ee Nacht is er eigschlofe.

Mei Grempap un Gremmemm vergess ich net so lang as ich mei Lewes hab:

Sie hen net allfatt gleich gsehne, awwer die menscht Zeit hen sie zammer gschafft.

Der Grempap hot gsaat, “Alle Haffe hot sei Deckel un alle Loch sei Schlissel.”

Fer mei aldi Leit hab ich Zeitlang, awwer fer die aldi Zeide yuscht glee bissel. ***

Grampa And Gramma (Conclusion) Grampa could not understand why his driving made Gramma so nervous, But he didn’t give up; finally she sat beside him to go to church; Eventually they ventured further. Yes, to the big falls in New York! Grampa was afraid she’d want to learn to drive and make him nervous. Grampa was a healthy young man and rarely ever sick; If he felt ill, he got yeast drops out of the cupboard. He did not smoke or swear; if he drank, it was secretly; The pastor probably considered his pride his greatest fault. One day a young horse shied and stepped on Grampa’s chest; Grampa said, “This is the end of me; I fear for my life.” He sent my brother to tell Gramma to hurry get old bedsheets: “And you, my boy, will wrap me up and bind me real tight.” Another time Grampa’s little finger got in the woodsaw’s way: He acted boldly until something began humming in his head. Yet he resisted, for one finger he will not go to a doctor, But he would take a

cigar, if anyone cared to give him one. Gramma was hardworking and did her duty; She was goodnatured and to help others gave up her rest. She was impatient just once, when Grampa learned to drive - She left Grampa and us at 75. Yes, Gramma became ill and passed away in the old homestead. Grampa, now alone, made sale and moved to town. He alternated living with his son and his daughter. He lived 20 more years - one night he fell asleep. My Grampa and Gramma I shall remember as long as I’ll live. They did not always see eye to eye, but most times worked together. Grampa said, “Every pot has its lid and every lock its key.” I have longing for my old folks, but - for old times, just a little.

Leweslaaf Vun De Anna F. Faust

Anna F. Faust, nee Schaeffer, was born on August 28, 1918 in New Schaefferstown in Jefferson Township in Berks County. Her parents were Charles and Sallie, nee Degler, Schaeffer. Her two older brothers and younger sister are still living. DER GREMPAP UN DE GREMMEMM of the poem were her grandparents Degler. Amendon and Fietta Schaeffer were her paternal grandparents. It is of interest to know that she spoke English to her maternal grandparents and usually English at home, although her parents spoke the dialect to each other.

Anna attended a one room country school from 1923 to 1930. In 1934, she was graduated from Bernville High School. She enjoyed studying and reading everything she could get her hands on, including poetry.

When Anna was eleven, her mother moved the family to Bernville. Anna learned house keeping and when she was 21, obtained employment in a hosiery mill where she worked for three years.

In 1941, Anna married Frank W. Faust. Frank had been one year ahead of her in school. Frank, an electrician by trade, was employed by Western Electric. Over a period of 13 years, he took evening college courses in electrical engineering, in English and other courses, at Albright College and the Penn State Center. As a result of his long years of employment at the Reading Works and his advanced training, he was later promoted to management. Both of Frank’s parents had been school teachers, yet both spoke the dialect almost exclusively in their home.

Until 1966, Anna was a housewife and mother; in that year, she became a receptionist at the local medical center. She worked there until her retirement in 1978. Frank died in 1976 after 34 happy years of marriage.

Anna has been a lifelong church member, but has not been active in other organizations. Her hobbies are reading, cooking, taking a daily two-three mile walk.

Anna’s Dutch poems to date are: DANKBAAR, written in 1973 as a substitution for her husband’s regular writing in the Church School News. This poem was printed in the

Signs Your Roof Needs Repair Or Replacement

Many homeowners believe a roof is a once-in-a-lifetime investment. But roof damage can force homeowners to replace a roof regardless of how much time has lapsed since the roof was installed.

The average life span of a roof depends on when the roof was installed and the materials it is made from.

According to Central Homes Roofing, three­tab shingles may last between 10 and 15 years, architectural shingles can endure for 15 to 20 years, and tile may last between 35 and 50 years. RPS Metal Roofing indicates a metal roof may last as long as 70 years. However, climate and color of the roof also will affect its longevity.

Homeowners would be wise to consider these factors when determining if a roof is in need of repairs or replacement.

• Roof age: The age of the roof is a major factor in determining if it will need to be replaced or if repairs can be made to isolated

damage. Individuals who live in neighborhoods where neighbors are now replacing roofs will likely find it is time to consult a roofing company. Homeowners also can check to see if they have any receipts that indicate the roof’s installation date so they have an idea about its age.

• Grain in gutters: Roofing shingles are designed to overlap, and sealant keeps them steady. Friction, weather and atmospheric

changes can impact sealant and cause degradation. Gutters with grainy material in them could indicate worn out sealant and shingles.

• Ridge damage: Ridges are spots where two separate areas meet and often are important to the structural integrity of the roof. If the roof ridge is showing signs of wear, it could be time to repair or replace it.

• Curled shingle edges: If shingle tabs are curled or cupped, the shingles may need to be replaced. But if curling is extensive, a whole new roof may need to be installed.

• Bald spots or lost portions of the roof: Missing granules and missing shingles are reasons to consult a pro for a roof evaluation.

Creating Distressed Furniture

• Leaks indoors: Homeowners who find dark streaks or moisture in the attic may discover that water is penetrating the roof underlay. Water often comes in around chimney flashing. Other water signs are blistering and bubbling in walls.

• Incoming light: Look up through the attic and see if any light is coming through the roof, which may indicate there are cracks or holes in the roof.

• Aesthetics: If a homeowner doesn’t like the look of the roof from a design standpoint, a replacement also may be warranted.

Roofs can last many years, but the presence of certain signs indicates replacement or repairs will be necessary.

When browsing through an antique store, do you find yourself drawn to old, worn pieces that have been painted numerous times and are chipped, nicked and dented? Would you like to create that look in your home but can’t afford to fill your home with antiques? Not to worry. The look is called “distressed,” and it is easy to create on just about any furniture piece, old or new.

To start the distressing process, study the piece carefully and determine where the most wear and tear would occur. With most dining chairs, for example, the arms are one of the first places that begin to show various signs of wear from chipped paint to rounded edges.

Once you have decided how the piece should be distressed, you can prepare it for distressing. If the piece has never been painted, prep, prime and paint it. Keep in mind that for layers of paint to show, you will need at least two good coats of paint that contrast in color. As soon as the paint is dry, or if the piece you have selected has already been painted, apply a clear coat of satin sealer to it.

After the piece has been sealed, you may distress it. To create chips, nicks and dents, use a hammer, light chain or bag of bolts and screws. Gently hit the piece a few times with your tools. Be careful-you don’t want to damage the framework. To create wormholes, use a drill bit. Again, be careful and don’t drill too large of holes or insert them where they will damage the framework. To make the piece look worn, use some sandpaper. Lightly sand the areas where the paint would wear off naturally, like the edges and corners. Don’t use a power sander. You don’t want the piece to look like it has been sanded or expose a lot of bare wood.

Once you are satisfied with the way that the piece looks, apply a coat of paste wax to it. For a really antique look, use a dark paste. This will bring out the worn areas. Read and follow the manufacturer’s directions for applying the paste and be careful not to overdo it.

Distressing furniture is not difficult, but it can be time consuming depending upon what kind of a look you are going for. The more worn you want the piece to look, the more time you will have to put into distressing it. The results will make it all worthwhile, though, when you transform that ordinary piece into an ageold beauty.

What To Know Before Planting

When planning a landscape, it’s tempting to pick the most colorful, vibrant plants. An eye-popping property filled with yellows, purples, pinks, and other bold colors is sure to catch anyone’s eye. However, the right plant for a property is not always the most colorful.

Gardening novices can easily be overwhelmed on a trip to their local garden center, where employees may ask a host of questions that have little to do with homeowners’ preferences and everything to do with the growing conditions around their properties. Those questions may seem a little intense, but they’re

well-intentioned. Successful gardening is more about soil conditions and access to sunlight than it is about the plants themselves. An awe-inspiring hydrangea bush will only impress if it’s planted in a location where it can thrive.

The Landscape, Nursery and Urban Forestry program at UMass Amherst Extension advises homeowners to learn about the following site conditions, and ultimately share that knowledge with local garden center representatives, before they pick and plant anything around their properties.

• Hardiness zone: The Plant Hardiness Zone Map from the U.S. Department of Agriculture is designed to help gardeners determine which plants are most likely to thrive where they

live. The map can be found on the USDA website at www.usda.gov.

• Light availability, intensity, and duration, from full sun to deep shade: Prior to planting, homeowners can document this information in a notebook or on their smartphones. Do so for a long enough period of time that you can get an accurate of idea of the conditions in which plants will have to grow, and then take that information with you to the garden center where you will buy your plants. Employees can then use this info to help you find the right fit given the light conditions.

• Water availability, both quantity and quality, as well as ease of access

• Exposure to wind and temperature extremes

• Exposure to weather events, snow loads, erosion, and flooding: Garden center employees can likely recommend plants based on traditional weather patterns in a given area.

• Soil type, drainage and compaction: Homeowners can take note of any areas of their property where water pools or the ground feels especially soggy after rainfall. Share this information with garden center employees prior to picking plants for such areas. If soil appears compacted, aeration prior to planting may be necessary.

• Competition from existing vegetation, keeping in mind the roots underground that you can’t see

• Above ground wires or obstructions: Trees will grow up, and the presence of power lines or other obstructions may threaten the trees or prove dangerous if trees eventually grow into or hang over power lines.

Knowledge of various conditions prior to planting can save homeowners the cost of replacing plants and the hassle of dealing with plants that don’t take.

What Is Water Hammer?

If your water pipes bang or make other noises it could be caused by a condition called water hammer. This occurs when you turn off a water flow in the house suddenly. The sudden shut off sends pressure down the pipes causing a shock that makes them bang. Over time, water hammer can damage pipes and joints. Most modern homes have arresters that compensate for this condition, turning the pressure into a harmless cushion of air that dissipates.

The Many Ways Houseplants Can Improve Your Indoor Spaces

The lines between the outdoors and indoors are being blurred. Homeowners build extensive outdoor living spaces so they can relax on weather-resistant furniture and even cook in lavish kitchens in their backyards. In addition, indoor three-season rooms full of bright, open windows that showcase outdoor vistas challenge the boundaries between outside and inside. For those working with limited budgets, there are some easy, inexpensive ways to enjoy the majesty of natural landscapes indoors. Houseplants can be used to improve indoor spaces, and

they also provide various health benefits.

Help with allergies

According to WebMD, rooms with houseplants tend to have less dust and mold in them than those without any foliage. Leaves and other parts of the plants serve as natural filters, catching airborne particles and allergens. Plants with textured leaves might be especially effective at trapping particles.

Put more oxygen into the air

The human respiratory system works by bringing in oxygen and releasing carbon dioxide. Plants

do the opposite during photosynthesis. They absorb carbon dioxide and then release oxygen. Plants can

put much more oxygen into the air, improving indoor conditions. Increase indoor humidity and reduce illness

Studies from the Agricultural University of Norway found that indoor plants can increase humidity in indoor spaces, which decreases the incidences of sore throats, dry coughs, dry

skin, and the common cold. Higher absolute humidity can decrease the chances of survival and transmission of the flu virus.

Filter the air

Researchers who presented their work at the 252nd National Meeting & Exposition of the American Chemical Society found certain houseplants can combat the potentially harmful effects of volatile organic compounds. Plants may help filter out VOCs like benzene, acetone and formaldehyde, which can enter indoor air via cleaning supplies, dry-cleaned clothes, furniture, printers, and paints.

Improve interior atmosphere

Prevention magazine says plants can be used to screen unattractive areas, moderate room temperature by shading

spots from the sun and even reduce noise. Plants also can improve ambiance and create a pleasing atmosphere in a room.

Can improve mood

Growing and caring for plants can alleviate everyday stress. A nationwide study from UK Magazine Gardeners World found 80 percent of gardeners declared themselves satisfied with life compared to 67 percent among non-gardeners. Gardeners were more positive mentally. Greenery can help people feel more at home and improve mental health. A rehab center in Norway found patients reported a greater increase in well-being four weeks after having greenery added to their surroundings. Houseplants can improve indoor areas and positively affect personal health.

Keeping Up With Popular Home Exterior Trends Can Set Your Property Apart

Certain homes have an undeniable wow factor. That instant appeal tends to be noticeable the moment visitors pull up to the curb, and it might be a byproduct of homeowners’ willingness to embrace the latest exterior design trends.

Trends come and go, but recognition of the current fashions can help homeowners create that highly sought-after wow factor. The following are some recent trends in home exteriors that have helped homeowners set their properties apart.

Wood

Natural wood has undeniable appeal, and it hasn’t only found newfound devo-

tion among home interior decorators. Natural wood garage doors create a sense of warmth and can set a home apart from others with steel doors, which tend to be the most popular garage door material. In addition to the garage door, natural wood entry doors and wood decks are popular ways to impart this classical, warm look to a home’s exterior.

Painted brick

Like natural wood, brick is a traditional material that’s both sturdy and classical. But homeowners can add character to brick with a coat of paint, which has become a popular trend in recent years. Light tones tend to be most popular when painting bricks. The experts at Better Homes & Gardens note that this could prove a long-term

commitment if homeowners so desire, as a properly painted brick exterior could last as long as 20 years.

Hardscaping

Hardscaping isn’t a new trend, but it has been trending in recent years. Hardscaping is an umbrella term that includes everything from outdoor living rooms to incorporating natural stone into a landscape. Outdoor living rooms are one hardscaping trend that

has become increasingly popular of late. These spaces serve as an extension of indoor living spaces. The home improvement experts at HGTV note that recently homeowners have looked to create covered outdoor rooms that can be enjoyed more frequently than patios or decks that are not protected from the elements.

Outdoor lighting

It makes sense that individuals looking to spend more time enjoying their properties outdoors would want more lighting outside. Ambient outdoor lighting can be utilized throughout a property. Such lighting can light up walkways and driveways and be used to light up landscaping features like trees and gardens. Home design trends tend to be fickle. But recognition of the current trends in exterior home design can set homes apart and turn properties into awe-inspiring places to enjoy the great outdoors.

How To Pick The Right Trees For Your Property

Trees benefit a landscape by serving both aesthetic and utilitarian functions. A home surrounded by healthy green trees can be a sight to behold, and those same trees can benefit surrounding plants and wildlife at the same time.

As appealing as trees are, not all trees and landscapes make for the perfect match. The Arbor Day Foundation notes the importance of planning when designing a

landscape. Planning ensures the trees homeowners ultimately choose for their properties will grow well in the soil and moisture present in their yards.

Careful consideration of a handful of variables can help homeowners determine which trees will make the best fit for their properties.

• Height: Homeowners must consider the projected height of a tree before planting it. Avoid trees that will bump into anything when fully grown, as that can adversely affect surrounding greenery and pose a safety hazard. The ADF’s tree sizing guide can be accessed

at https://www.arborday.org/ trees/rightTreeAndPlace/ size.cfm and serves as an invaluable resource for homeowners who want to plant new trees around their properties.

• Canopy spread: Trees grow out as well as up, so it’s important to consider their potential width at maturity as well. The ADF sizing guide can help homeowners get an idea of how wide a tree is likely to be at maturity. Trees that spread out quite a bit don’t necessarily need to be avoided, but it’s important that they’re planted far enough apart so they don’t adversely affect surrounding

plants. In addition, wide trees that are planted too close together can make the landscape appear crowded, taking something away from its aesthetic appeal.

• Growth rate: Growth rate is an important variable because it can affect how quickly homeowners will see changes in their landscapes. Homeowners who want to plant for privacy can consider trees with quick

growth rates or purchase more mature trees that are already near full growth. Those who are not in need of instant transformation can try trees with slower growth rates, which the ADF notes typically live longer than fast-growing species.

• Requirements: Different trees require different amounts of sun and moisture and different soil components to thrive. Home-

owners can have their soil tested to determine which trees will thrive in it. Local garden centers can be a great resource for homeowners who want insight as to which trees will thrive in their local climates.

Trees serve many functions on a property. Choosing the right trees for a landscape requires careful consideration of a host of variables.

How To Water Lawn And Landscapes More Efficiently

There are certain ingredients vital to the survival of your landscaping.

One of the most important is water. H2O is the lifeblood of plants, trees and lawns. Still, as simple as watering your lawn and garden may seem, there is in fact a science behind doing so correctly and efficiently.

Know Your Soil

Depending upon what type of soil you have, watering needs will be varied. Plus, soil should be loosened around plants to allow water to penetrate more easily.

The best type of soil is loam soil. Loam features a combination of sand, silt and clay, which allows water to penetrate and then stores it for plants to use.

Clay soil absorbs water slowly, so water only as fast as the clay can absorb. You should also mix in peat moss or organic compost to improve the soil. Sandy soil is often encountered. Water can run through very

quickly, making it difficult for roots to obtain what they need. Add organic matter to supplement the soil.

When to Water

Watering in early morning or evening is best. This reduces the amount of water that will evaporate from the sun. Also try to time watering when the wind is calm, otherwise you may not be able to control where the water goes.

Tips for Water Use

Watering deeply once is better than shallow watering several times per day. Watering to a depth of 4 to 6 inches promotes stronger, deeper root growth and development, and also contributes to longer times between watering.

To measure how much water a lawn or garden is getting, The U.S. Department of Agriculture recommends placing an empty tuna fish can (or cat food can) on the lawn while watering. When the can is full, stop watering.

Choosing a Sprinkler or Hose

There are many types of watering accessories available. Many homeowners prefer the convenience of underground sprinkler systems that water set areas on a timer. There are other sprinklers that attach to a garden hose that can water a lawn efficiently. Cascading sprinklers are more effective than the rotating shootshoot-shoot types because they’ll saturate the ground more quickly and there’s less chance of water being wasted on sidewalks and driveways. It is difficult and time consuming to water a larger lawn by hand with a hose and spray nozzle — you just may not water long or deep enough.

How Often?

You should be safe watering a lawn and garden every five to seven days in moderate weather. During extremely hot patches of weather or when there hasn’t been adequate rain, you may want to water every three days.

Did You Know?

When remodeling a home with the ultimate goal of making it more attractive to prospective buyers, homeowners can benefit from taking stock of current trends, including the style of home that’s most popular. According to a 2020 Homes. com survey of more than 5,000 adults across the United States, modern farmhouse is the most favored house style. The survey asked participants to choose from a selection of styles, including mid-century modern ranch, Spanish colonial/southwest, bohemian craftsman, Italianate, French chateau, and Tudor. The modern farmhouse style was the most popular choice in 42 of the 50 states, proving that home style preference is not beholden to geography. Respondents gave a host of reasons for favoring the modern farmhouse look, including that the style is “aesthetically appealing but not boring” and that it looks “simple, cozy, and not too busy.”

The Sunrise

Author: Wenger

Scripture: Proverbs 4:18“The path of the righteous is like the morning sun, shining ever brighter till the full light of day.”

A sunrise is a beautiful time we can enjoy almost every day. A sunrise over the ocean is truly a demonstration of

just how awesome God is. The Christian’s life experience from salvation forward should be; growing more like Christ, a greater level of obedience, better fellowship and an ever-deepening knowledge of God the Father.

Scripture compares the believer’s life to the sun’s ever brighter light from its rising until full sunshine in the sky above.

Notice the righteous travel a path. The verse doesn’t describe a wide road upon which many travel hurrying, shoving and pushing their way to some destination. It says a path, which is traveled enough that you know where to go, yet not a way chosen by the masses. It reminds me of what Christ said in Matthew 7:13-14: “Enter by the narrow

gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it. Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few

who find it.” It reminds me of driving on the beltway around Washington D.C. It’s always a white-knuckle, fearfor-your-life, keep up with the rush of the traffic and pray you get through it. A path is

W ORSHIP J OINU S in

gentle, peaceful, and beautiful; you can’t see all the way to the end of a path, but you have enough in front of you for direction.

This path is different because of those who travel it, the righteous. The believer is righteous in two aspects. The First aspect, the righteous standing, a person receives when they believe on Christ. They believe in His work on the cross, dying for their sin, repenting of that sin and trusting Him exclusively for forgiveness. The Bible says; “God made him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.” (2nd Cor. 5:21). The book of Philippians states clearly that our right standing is not by being good but by faith in the

one who is truly good; “and may be found in Him, not having a righteousness of my own derived from the law, but that which is through faith in Christ, the righteousness which comes from God on the basis of faith.” (Philippians 3:9).

The second aspect of our righteousness is our sanctification that is a growing righteousness, not for salvation; but because of salvation, it’s a result not a cause. Justification is once and done Sanctification is an ongoing process in which we are transformed by the renewing of our mind. Justification is entirely a work of God. Sanctification requires our participation, the Holy Spirit, the Word of God and a desire to obey is required for

us to grow and truly be like a sunrise that gets brighter unto the full day.

The world’s view of life is a sunset until you finally end in darkness, it’s over, nothing after that, sickness till death than it’s lights out. God’s view is a transition from increasing light into eternal light; no darkness. In scripture, light describes God, His word, the life in Christ and always good, not evil.

Jesus is the light: “I am the light of the world; the one who follows Me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.” (John 8:12). If we are in Jesus, we too are the light: “You are the light of the word. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden.”

(Matthew 5:14). The Bible is described as light: “Thy word is a lamp to my feet and light unto my path.” (Psalms 119:105).

As a believer, we have every reason to be optimistic about the future. We can’t lose. As the sun dawns unto a full day, our life should be an ever-increasing focus on the eternal, not the temporal. We need to focus on His will and the work He has for us. Our life is to reflect God’s light to a world that walks in darkness. We are to be the lampstand in the dark room, the city on a hill.

• All Together Now -

(Continued On Page 4B)

Every Thursday evening at the Roland Park in Akron you can see disc golf players out competing. Now, even in rainy weather, players won’t slip, thanks to the work and fundraising efforts of the Lancaster County Disc Golf Club (LCDGC) that upgraded nine of the pads. Previously made of rubber, the pads are now made of concrete with a brush finish. The club will complete the final nine pads

in the next few months.

Shown at one of the new pads are members, from left to right, (front) Cyrus Dunn, Ramie Millar, Torrin Clapper, Lyndon Stoltzfus, Caleb Heck, Bob Grube, Wes Moyer, Tim Shonsky; (second row) Eric Moul, Mike Cagno, Josh Smeltzer, Dan Glick, Isaac Hershberger, Austin Howard, Ryan Muckle; (back) Will Smith, Scott Martin, Kort Jackson, Scott Moyer, TJ

Woman’s Club Installs New Officers

Linton and Kris Mull.

Wesley Moyer, secretary of the LCDGC, said, “The club is excited to put in new pads to help with improvement of the course.” He added that the club is preparing for the PA State Disc Golf Championship 2023, to be held on Friday, August 4, Saturday, August 5 and Sunday, August 6. Money raised for the project mainly came from

proceeds from the New Years Day Doubles Tournament, that was very well attended this year. The new pads should last from 10 to 15 years. Sue Davidson, Akron Borough Manager, remarked, “We are grateful to the Lancaster County Disc Golf Club for these new improvements to the park.”

Disc Golf is the fastest

growing sport since Covid, since people of all ages participate in this fun activity for free and in wide open spaces. Extremely popular in Akron’s Roland Park, LCDGC members enjoy leagues and tournaments on a weekly basis. One hundred and one players, aged 9 years to 60

Eight Lancaster County law enforcement officers who made a combined 143 impaired driving arrests in the calendar year 2022 were honored as “Lancaster County DUI TOP GUNS” at the 31st Annual DUI Awareness Conference. DUI Council coordinator, Danielle Horan, remarked that, “law enforcement is the first line of defense against impaired driving.” Adding

that, “The 143 arrests made by these 8 law enforcement officers saved countless lives by getting impaired drivers off the road before tragedy struck.”

The Shopping News is proud to recognize two officers that serve our coverage area that have made a difference for all of us by making everyone safer with these arrests. Shown

Low-Cost Ways To Revamp Living Areas At Home

Home improvement projects require substantial financial investment. But just because a homeowner wants to bring a fresh look indoors doesn’t mean he or she has to break the bank along the way.

Living rooms are some of the most frequently used spaces in a home, and they can use an update from time to time to stay on trend or to make the area more functional for a changing family dynamic. Here are some budget­friendly ideas for breathing new life into living room designs.

• Establish the budget. Homeowners should figure out how many dollars they can designate to a living room makeover before purchasing supplies or hiring out the work. Figure out the scope of the remodel, visit stores or suppliers to price out materials, get estimates from contractors, and then plan for some unforseen circumstances along the way

to determine if this type of renovation is affordable. If not, scale things back until

the project more closely aligns with your budget.

• Change the paint color. Lighter and brighter colors are on trend. A can or two of

paint can do wonders for updating a space without a large financial commitment. Pair that new paint color with new window coverings and complementary throw pillows to pull the theme together with minimal expense.

• Update the flooring. Tired, outdated carpeting or other flooring can use an overhaul. While solid hardwood flooring may be preferable, there are many types of laminate flooring that mimic the looks of popular wood colors and styles for a fraction of the cost. Plus, many are sold at home improvement retailers and even at warehouse clubs or online for reasonable prices. Laminate flooring also may be a potential DIY job for a skilled homeowner, saving even more money.

• Introduce a fireplace. Fireplaces were once hot commodities, but that popularity waned in the 1970s and 1980s. Homeowners with chimneys may discover a fireplace was

boarded over and the bare bones still exist that can be renovated to bring back character. There also are ventless freestanding units that are quite affordable that can mimic the look of a built-in fireplace.

• Reupholster instead of replace furniture. There’s no need to throw away quality furniture if the fabric is the only thing impeding design. New upholstery or even a slipcover can update designs.

• Conquer clutter. Rather than adding something to the living room, remove clutter to give the room a more airy feel. This can instantly change the look of the room. Use cord covers to tame plugs for electronics and remove unnecessary furniture from the room.

• Improve lighting. Another easy and often inexpensive fix is to change lighting fixtures, including using brighter, more energy efficient LED bulbs, and to assess lighting needs to eliminate dark corners of rooms that can make the space seem drab.

Living room spaces in need of an update often can benefit from improvements that go easy on the wallet.

Did You Know?

Though new flooring and ceiling tiles might not offer the wow factor of a remodeled kitchen, a 2019 study from researchers at the Joint Center for Housing Studies at Harvard University found that replacing floors and ceilings was the most popular home improvement project in the United States in 2017, the most recent year for which data was available at the time of the study.

More than five million homeowners replaced carpeting, flooring, paneling, or ceiling tiles in their homes in 2017. The popularity of such projects may have something to do with the relatively low cost associated with them, as the experts at BobVila.com note that overhauling surfaces underfoot and overhead costs an average of $3,283. That places floor and ceiling tile replacement projects among the least expensive home improvement projects homeowners can undertake, even though such renovations can immediately and dramatically transform the look of a room.

Laundry Room Renovations Make Household

Does it seem like your hamper is always full and the washing machine is running constantly? You may not be imagining it. Laundry Butler for You, a wash, dry and fold service, says the average household washes 50 pounds of laundry a week and 6,000 articles of clothing every year. Families with children at home are doing laundry most often, and those with pets may find there is ample laundry to wash as well. With so much laundry being generated, homeowners may want to consider paying extra attention to the space in the house where their clothing is being cleansed. Laundry room renovations may not top homeowners’ priority lists, but it may be time to give these rooms another look.

Assess your equipment

If your appliances are aging, a laundry room renovation can start with an investment in new appliances. New models have large capacity loads, tend to be energy-efficient and could have innovative features that help fit with your laundry lifestyle.

Purchasing front­loading models also can free up

design space, as you can install a counter directly above the units, saving room for other items like drying racks.

Figure out your room needs A laundry room need not be limited to laundry only.

Many homeowners make large laundry rooms catchall spaces that can serve as utility or mud rooms, pantry overflows, or off-season storage areas. Consider the functions you want the room to serve and include those ideas in your designs.

Add some natural light

If possible, include a window in your laundry room. Natural light can help make the room more enjoyable. It also can help you identify stains on clothes that need to be addressed and make it easier to fold matching items like socks.

Think about a utility sink

Many washing machines drain out directly to waste pipes in the floor or wall, but you also can opt to have them empty into a utility sink. This sink also provides a convenient place to handwash items, clean

tools or paintbrushes, or store items that perhaps you do not want to bring into a bathroom or kitchen sink.

Include some flair

This utilitarian space need not be boring or bereft of design elements. Mirror your home’s style in the laundry room, and include wall hangings, plants, accent items, and even task lighting.

Play up certain features with a bold floor tile or brightly colored walls.

Updating laundry rooms can be a great way to make doing laundry more enjoyable and efficient.

Did You Know?

You can ensure that your caulking bead is straight and even with this simple trick: Use masking tape to tape off the areas around the area in which you are caulking, keeping the two pieces of tape at a distance the size of the desired bead. Lay down your bead of caulk. Use your finger to tool the caulk by pushing the excess onto the tape.

After tooling, you can remove the masking tape and you’ll find a very nice looking, straight, clean, smooth bead of tooled caulk.

In addition to disc golf, the Akron course is being used by casual players, families, and groups of friends who can use regular frisbees or aerobies (rings). With the variety of holes and shots, Moyer considers the Roland Park course to be the best in Lancaster County, because it is more technical, with both open and wooded holes. It is also the longest, with 27 holes.
