Mennonite Children’s Choir to close out concert series
The Mennonite Children’s Choir of Lancaster (MCCL) will present the final program in the Lancaster Church of the Brethren’s 2023-24 Starlight Tea Concert Series with a performance on Saturday, April 13, at 7 p.m. The church is located at 1601 Sunset Ave., Lancaster. The concert is part of the MCCL’s spring concert series - “Sing ‘Til the Power of the Lord Come Down!” - which celebrates the group’s 25 years of singing. The choir will share several spirituals and songs from the gospel tradition, such as “He Is Marvelous” by Rosephanye Powell and “The Storm Is Passing Over” by Charles Albert Tindley, arranged by Barbara W. Baker. Music by Michael
Praetorius, George Frideric Handel, John Rutter and Elaine Hagenberg, as well as songs in Hebrew, German and Latin, will also be included.
The MCCL is a community choral arts program serving more than 150 children and youths in kindergarten through grade 12. Only middle and high school-age children will perform at the upcoming concert.
Representing nearly 55 congregations, 45 schools and 12 denominations, singers develop a musical repertoire from around the world and across time while being equipped for a lifetime of service to the church and community. The mission of MCCL is training children and youths to glorify Jesus Christ
through excellent choral singing. Tea and cookies will be served following the concert. The free Starlight Tea series is supported by patrons
and offerings received at concerts. For more information about the series, contact planning committee chair Giny Mackey at 717-201-8450.
want to be regular, normal people like everybody else. We help them lead the best lives they can.”
The 15th edition of UDS’ annual gala will be presented on Friday, April 19, from 6 to 9 p.m. at the Lancaster Country Club, 1466 New Holland Pike, Lancaster. It will be a night filled with refreshments, hors d’oeuvres, dinner, live and online auctions, entertainment and fellowship.
“When I hear ‘gala,’ I think of a party,” said Aubrey. “It’s a special occasion. It’s set aside for a special purpose. It’s really people wanting to have a fun time. (The UDS event is) not a black-tie gala. It’s about raising funds and raising awareness. We try to show the folks in attendance how their donations will be used to impact our clients.”
About 300 clients, family members, sponsors, community members and UDS advocates and supporters are expected to attend the gala. UDS is hoping to raise $60,000, a sum that will be directly applied to in-home living personal care, one of 14 programs that UDS operates.
“People are always going to need the services we provide,” said Aubrey. “People with disabilities and people who are aging in their homes are always going to need these services.”
The gala is one of three major fundraisers that UDS conducts annually. UDS’ holiday gift wrapping station at Park City Mall involves 250 volunteers and raises about $50,000, and its annual golf outing at Crossgates Golf Club in August brings in nearly $30,000.
“We get a tremendous amount of our program funding from the state, but it doesn’t cover all the costs,” said Aubrey. “The rest has to come from fundraisers. We want our programs to be as impactful as they can be. Not only is it for our clients, (but) it’s also for our caregivers. We want to make sure the people who are providing these services are making a living wage.”
The origin of UDS can be traced to 1965 when a local girl in a wheelchair named Anna was unable to attend a showing of “Mary Poppins” because of her disability. Last year, 350
UDS employees provided quality-of-life-improving services to more than 6,000 individuals.
“There are a lot of folks out there who continue to need our help,” said Aubrey. “UDS is changing lives every day for people with disabilities and for people who are aging. We feel very blessed
that we’re able to provide these services to our friends and neighbors, and we can be depended upon. We’re here to help people lead full lives.”

cause and attract new members, the Aviation Venture Crew will conduct an open house and drop-in on Saturday, April 20, from 3 to 5 p.m. at Smoketown Airport, 311 Airport Drive, Smoketown. The event will serve as an opportunity to meet current members, hear about some of the activities that the Aviation Venture Crew engages in, and generally learn what the crew is all about.
There will be an airplane to explore, as well as a flight simulator.
The open house is free to attend, and everyone is welcome. Light refreshments and snacks will be served.
“The atmosphere should be pretty light,” said Eadline. “We’re trying to attract new youth to the organization. We’re kind of unique to Lancaster County. A Venture Crew that’s specifically focused on aviation is pretty rare. We’re the only one in the county.”
Chartered by New Holland American Legion Post 662, the Aviation Venture Crew meets every other Sunday in Smoketown Airport’s community room. The next meeting is scheduled for April 14 at 6 p.m.
Manheim, Lancaster city and Leola. More are always welcome.
“Most come from a Scouting background,” said Eadline, a New Holland resident. “We explore anything and everything related to aviation. For most of our members, it’s probably a hobby, but it could blossom into a career. If these kids are intent on going beyond Venture Crew, they can learn to fly.”
“When I started (flying), it was the excitement of being free. Now it’s a job. To me, it’s still neat to see the (planes) taking off,” said Eadline.

“We take a wide view of aviation, including planes and flight,” said co-adviser Beth Katz. “But we also consider airport operations, weather, astronomy, navigation and trip planning. We have visited the Air and Space Museum at Dulles Airport, but we have also visited Coatesville Airport and Lancaster Airport to see their operations and some of the planes housed there.”

Pledge the Pink launches shoe drive fundraiser
Pledge the Pink will conduct a shoe drive fundraiser until Tuesday, May 14, to raise funds to fight breast cancer. Funds2Orgs will issue a check based on the total weight of the pairs of gently worn used and new shoes collected by Pledge the Pink. Shoes will be collected at Tellus360, 24 E. King St., Lancaster; Bespoke Brewing, 226 Gap Road, Ronks; Uller’s Outdoor, 1031 Haines Road, York; Alltypes Insurance, 35 E. State St., Quarryville; Formula Fitness, 2495 E.

and grow small businesses in developing countries where economic opportunities and jobs are limited. Proceeds from the sales of the shoes collected in shoe drive fundraisers are used to feed, clothe, and house the entrepreneurs’ families. One budding entrepreneur in Haiti even earned enough to send to her son to law school. Additional information about Funds2Orgs is available at https://funds2 orgs.com.
