When the Rev. Dr. Richard Bauer graduated with a Bachelor of Science in legal studies from Nova Southeastern University, he knew he didn’t want to be a lawyer. While attending school, he was also building a career in music; some of his songs were on MTV and he opened for musicians such as Joan Jett. After a year went by, he applied to a graduate program in religious studies at Florida International University. Soon enough, the faculty trained Bauer as an adjunct professor. Despite his graduate research, Bauer was not attending church. Then he became interested in meditating and, while meditating, realized that Jesus was the basis of his faith. “I couldn’t shake it,” he said.
While on a trip to the Holy Land, Bauer and his wife were watching the baptisms of pilgrims in the Jordan River. Bauer saw a man with a woman who had scars on her face, and the man filled a five-gallon jug with water from the river. “It was clear to me that this guy wanted to bring this big jug of healing water home with him on the plane, and that level of faith and hope that there’s a promise for healing struck me to my core,” noted Bauer. Suddenly, he knew what he was supposed to do with his life: ministry. A woman who worked at St. Mark’s Episcopal Church and School in Fort Lauderdale watched Bauer’s band play every Saturday night. She knew Bauer’s education and teaching background, so she asked Bauer to talk to her church leader. “This guy and I started talking
Breslin Selected For International Competition Haley Breslin, a student at the Viktor Yeliohin International Ballet Academy in Lancaster, has been chosen to participate in the Kiev Grand Prix Festival, a ballet competition in Ukraine. This competition has a longstanding reputation of including some of the world’s most talented ballerinas. Breslin is a junior at the Commonwealth Charter Academy. She will join other students from the United States in the competition, but she is the only student from Pennsylvania who will participate. Haley has been working toward this goal since September of last year. She dances six days a week and fits in extra lessons between school and her regular dance schedule. This will be the second time that Viktor Yeliohin, the ballet master of the Viktor Yeliohin International Ballet Academy, will participate in the event, as he has been selected as one of the event’s many judges. Due to the COVID-19 restrictions, the competition will be an entirely virtual event. Breslin will participate in three categories: a classical variation, a contemporary piece, and improvisation, which is a new category this year. She has already submitted her videos to the committee,

Yeliohin welcomes all students to his studio. The academy will also host its own ballet competition, Relevé, in early November, with proceeds benefiting children’s health initiatives. More information may be found at www.vyballet.com and www.releve pa.org. Questions may be directed to Yeliohin at 717-419-6688 or relevedanceorg@gmail.com.

The Rev. Dr. Richard Bauer was installed as rector of St. Edward’s Episcopal Church in April 2020.
“I’m looking most forward to building something good,” said Bauer. “I would like if we can respond to whatever need is before us with love and show people that no matter how alienating the world can feel, if you hang out here, you will feel like you’re in the presence of something holy. I would love if this place could become known for a home of faith seeking understanding so that you can come here and question everything.” St. Edward’s is located at 2453 Harrisburg Pike, Lancaster.

St. Edward’s Welcomes New Rector
theology and travel and hit it off,” stated Bauer. “He immediately asked me to join his staff.” While at St. Mark’s, Bauer led the music program, taught middle school religion, and directed youth group. When Bauer was getting ready to graduate with a Master of Divinity from Virginia Theological Seminary in 2018, a headhunter was looking for the top pick of Bauer’s graduating class. This person turned out to be Bauer. “In church, we talk about being ‘called,’ and I was literally called on the phone,” he said. That was how Bauer became an associate rector at St. James Episcopal Church in Lancaster. After having lunch with a member of St. Edward’s Episcopal Church, Bauer applied and was interviewed for a position as rector at the church. He was installed in that position in the beginning of 2020. Bauer said he believes he came to St. Edward’s at just the right time. As a musician, Bauer possesses audio and video knowledge. Without knowing just how important those skills would be, Bauer said St. Edward’s did well during the pandemic. “I got my Doctor of Ministry from Duke (Divinity School) in Christian leadership, so I was trained to adapt,” noted Bauer.
