On The Hunt For Treasures BY CATHY MOLITORIS
David Deck spends a lot of time turning things over. At antique stores or flea markets, the Manheim resident can be found picking up objects and looking at what’s marked on the bottom. He’s searching for the words “Made in Occupied Japan.” David is a member of The Upside-Down World of Occupied Japan (OJ), a nationwide club of collectors that will be convening in Manheim later this month. After a membersonly meeting, the club will host an event that’s open to the public on Saturday, Sept. 25, beginning at 11 a.m. at St. Paul’s Evangelical Lutheran Church, 1258 Newport Road, Penryn. David estimates that more than 1,000 items from 40 club members will be for sale at the event. “We’ll also do appraisals on site if people want to bring their items,” he noted.

her own ministry, New Life Center for Mothers and Children, in Glen Rock,” Lindsey said. Additional speakers will include Carlene Wolf, pastor of Washington Boro United Methodist Church; Regina Driver, shelter administrator for Hands Across the Street in Columbia; and Lindsey, who will talk about her own spiritual and personal growth. “The people who are speaking are connected to our ministry and what we’re trying to do with 4C,” she explained. “The goal of the conference is for women in our community to see other women living next to them who are growing, who are overcoming obstacles. These are women who are right next door.
They are reachable and relatable.” Lindsey got the idea for the 4C Conference after attending a similar event in Hershey. “I came back thinking, ‘How can we bring that inspiration to a local level?’” she recalled. “We want to inspire women and help them grow to their full potential.” Lindsey hopes the conference will prompt women to seek transformation in their lives and walk away empowered. “It’s going to be a time of encouragement and inspiration no matter where you are in your journey,” she said. “It’s going to be a very, very powerful event.” For more information on the 4C Conference or to register, search for “4C Annual Conference” on Facebook.

eather Lindsey believes we’re all capable of transforming ourselves into who we truly want to be. She’ll focus on that idea during the annual 4C Conference, to be held Saturday, Oct. 9, at ITLM Faith Community Church, 4696 Breezyview Drive, Columbia. The conference will run from 9 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Lindsey, the owner of Creative Inspirationz Gallery in Manheim, created 4C, a women’s ministry that meets in Manheim and Columbia. With a mission to empower women, 4C offers opportunities for community, conversation, creative arts and
worship. The “C’s” stand for conversation, coloring, coffee and Christ. This is the second year Lindsey has held a daylong conference, and this year’s theme, “Transformation,” will focus on healing. Worship music will be performed by local husband-and-wife singersongwriters Dan and Lauren. The ITLM drama team will perform a skit, and a hands-on participatory activity that Lindsey described as an “artistic healing project” will be featured at the conference. Local chef Stephen Loechner will provide a catered meal, and panelists will offer testimonials throughout the day. “One of our keynote speakers has
