Serving in the Present With an Eye to the Future
CrossNet’s New Digs Near Completion
BY ANN MEAD ASH
The excitement that Carl Edwards, executive director of CrossNet Ministries, feels as he leads the way into the organization’s warehouse project’s donation center is obvious in his demeanor, but he puts words to it anyway. “We are thrilled! We are excited!” exclaimed Edwards. “It’s finally happening.”
The warehouse, located at 110 W. Franklin St., New Holland, was purchased by CrossNet in late 2022 in response to a need for space as programs and services offered by the ministry outgrew its facilities.
Renovations to the property began
in September 2024 and are scheduled to be completed by the end of August with move-in projected for September.
The purchase also included a smaller building at 134 W. Franklin St., which Edwards stated is currently being used for storage.
“(134 W. Franklin St.) is slated for future growth,” stated Edwards.
Because construction is ongoing, the tour does not begin at the front door, but rather at the west entrance, which will continue as a loading dock for the new facility.
“All donations will come through one place,” noted Edwards, who listed backpacks, winter coats, and clothing among those. The
section of that area closest to West Franklin Street will be used for food storage. “These garage doors will be updated, and we can receive donations from Tyson or Central Pennsylvania Food Bank,” stated Edwards.
The new Food and Nutrition Center, which will have its own entrance on West Franklin Street, will feature a commercial walk-in refrigerator and freezer. Edwards described the new market as a mini grocery store with its own restroom for shoppers, produce racks, nesting grocery carts, and a checkout counter. Behind the grocery store will be a commercial kitchen where lunches for the summer program

Play Preparation for Pre-K
BY ANN MEAD ASH
Angela Beck, family engagement specialist with Community Action Partnership (CAP) of Lancaster’s first Thrive to Five program and CrossNet Ministries in New Holland, has been holding seasonal Play & Learn gatherings for a while, but the summer series will be special.
“Over the summer, we will do kindergarten readiness,” explained Beck, who noted that Jen Watson, assistant director and youth services coordinator with the ELANCO Area Library, will run the sessions, which will be held from 10 to 11 a.m. on Fridays, July 11 to Aug. 1, on the second floor of the library, 11 Chestnut Drive, New Holland.
“The Play & Learn in partnership with Parents as Teachers will focus on developing kindergarten readiness skills in ages birth to 5, from gross and fine motor skill development to color and letter recognition,” said Watson, who added that the aim is to “give participants hands-on activities to foster these skills,” as well as resources, which will help continue to develop the skills throughout early childhood. “Our goal is to promote early literacy in local children and support their success in kindergarten and beyond,” she said. Watson plans to provide a variety of educational opportunities at each Play & Learn, along with take-home activities for parents and caregivers.
Activities generally include those that promote hand-eye coordination in young children, who also work on learning shapes and colors. “We do finger plays with rhymes such as ‘This

Trout Fishing Rodeo Held
The Garden Spot Lions Club recently held its annual trout fishing rodeo for handicapped individuals at the James Sensenig farm pond near Churchtown. Approximately 50 participants from Sunny Crest, Zerbe Sisters, and Welsh Mountain nursing homes and others spent the morning fishing and enjoying the hot dogs and snacks provided by the club.
Approximately 55 volun-
teers from the Lions Club, Terre Hill Boy Scout Troop 172, and others assisted the handicapped fishermen. The Horace Keller family provided all fishing equipment, including bait, and the Penn Dutch and Beartown sportsmen’s clubs stocked the pond with trout.
For more information about the club, call president Stuart McLauchlan at 610-322-4284.

ways. “Parents can meet each other and talk and build community while children interact with each other,” said Beck. “Parents learn from each other and observe their children with other children.”
Beck mentioned that the developmental activities also coordinate with a theme. “In the spring one, we did spring activities such as bird watching; we made bird feeders,” said Beck. “We did motor skill activities such as making flower bouquets, painting, and coloring.” Looking ahead, Beck is planning activities for children who will not be heading to kindergarten this year. “In the fall, we are looking at apple counting and tasting and pumpkins,” she said. “I would love to get some animals in.”

When Beck is not hosting Play & Learns, she is working with parents during home visits under the Parents as Teachers program. “We partner with parents to share age development information,” said Beck of the program, which receives referrals from various outreach programs, CrossNet, and health insurance organizations. “We help (parents) learn to observe how their child is developing, and we help them with parenting skills,” added Beck, who noted fostering parent-child interaction and recommending intentional actions parents can take to help children develop are key components of the program. “We (also) help find resources for families,” she added. Beck explained that once she receives a referral, she reaches out to the family to explain the program. “We schedule an intake, and they get one to two visits a month,” she said. Beck does home visits in the Ephrata
Area School District as well as in ELANCO, currently visiting 13 families on a regular basis. “I would love to connect with others,” she stated.
In addition to home visits, Beck coordinates yearly developmental and health and vision screenings for enrolled children. “We do that to see where their growth and abilities lie and to see if any of them require early intervention or referrals to S. June Smith Center or IU13.” Beck started in her position in early 2024. “It’s been amazing,” she stated. “CAP and CrossNet have been very supportive of this position, and I have learned a lot.” Since she started, the Play & Learn program attendance has grown. “Our last Play & Learn had a full roster,” she noted, stating that at her first event, only two families attended, but that 21 families registered and 14 attended the most recent

will be packed and, which will eventually offer more services. “Amy (Marburger, who heads up the Food and Nutrition Center) has a vision of holding cooking and nutrition classes in the future,” shared Edwards.
The rest of the building will encompass two floors with a mezzanine-style second level. Social services will have a group of offices together on the first floor with a front entrance and hallway offering quiet and privacy for visiting participants. There will also be an area where CrossNet can keep clothing on hand when it is needed in a hurry for a job interview or when children have sudden growth spurts. Offices that are available for visiting organizations to utilize will be located in the building as well. “We have offices that will be shared space to house partnerships we have with organizations in Lancaster city, such as Tenfold or CareerLink,” explained Edwards, who added that the organizations should have regularly scheduled weekly or monthly time at CrossNet.
One highlight of the second floor will be the balcony area from which to view the main office suite below - with room for eight cubicles - as well as the large windows facing south. Another feature on the upper floor is an extra-large conference room, which will house training sessions for participants and families. “We wanted a spot where 40 to 50 people could be present,” he pointed out, adding that the room will be fitted with technology for teaching and other displays.

More information about upcoming Play & Learns may be found by searching for “CrossNet Ministries Participants” on Facebook or by picking up a flyer at the ELANCO Area Library. Families that wish to participate in the next Play & Learn session are asked to register ahead by emailing abeck@caplanc.org.
Several years ago, the CrossNet Youth Center outgrew its location at 127 W. Franklin St. At that time, the youth center moved into the warehouse across the street near the corner of Roberts Avenue, which is also part of 110 W. Franklin St. As remodeling occurs in the office area, the youth center will soon be connected to the new CrossNet. “This wall behind us is the new youth center wall, and this wall in front of us will come down,” explained Edwards, who added this means the youth center will enlarge by 35 feet and be fitted with a new fullcourt basketball court running east and west with a new concrete slab and new flooring.
A reception area, more offices and conference rooms, and a lunchroom and kitchen for CrossNet staff will be located on the first floor close to West Franklin Street. Edwards pointed out that the
lunchroom will be located next to a conference room to make it easy to serve refreshments.
Gesturing to the second-floor loft area, Edwards pointed out a section that will be outfitted with cable railing. “That will be a great aesthetic for a nice modern look,” said Edwards. “We are insanely grateful for the architects and contractors that have been willing to collaborate with the many vendors that have supported CrossNet over the years.”
Near the end of the tour, Edwards stopped and pointed to a wall behind the reception area. “This will be our donor wall,” he stated. “It will be a beautifully designed wall with names of all the donors that have invested into this capital project and warehouse renovation,” said Edwards. “Our goal is to fill this space and leave room for potential generosity.”
According to Edwards, the total cost of the finished project will be about $5 million “from initial purchase to renovation.”
“There are still some funds to raise to move in debt free,” said Edwards, who noted that currently $450,000 is needed. “The community has done this,” said Edwards. “They have invested time and money.” CrossNet’s next big fundraiser will be the Summer Nights dinner and auction scheduled for Saturday, Aug. 23.
Currently, the number of CrossNet staff members is approaching 20. Edwards is looking ahead to when many more staff members will offer increased services to the community. “This project was to alleviate current space issues but also to be able to dream for next 30 years,” said Edwards. “This is for future growth.” Information about CrossNet is available at www.elancocross.org.
