More Than A Ride Shuttle Helps Students Learn Job Skills BY ANN MEAD ASH
A few years ago, Michelle Rondinelli, president of Kitchen Kettle Village in Intercourse; Pequea Valley School District (PVSD) superintendent Erik Orndorff; Adam Nagle, executive director of The Factory Ministries; and other community leaders began meeting to discuss area workforce problems - particularly, what might keep students from beginning their employment careers. “We were talking hurdles, what more could be done, what they were seeing, and the barrier of transportation was talked about,” recalled Nagle.

Christ’s Home Schedules Local Speaker BY ANN MEAD ASH
“This story goes from tragedy to triumph,” said Vernon Wright, chief development officer with Christ’s Home, citing the theme of the organization’s upcoming fundraising dinner. The story Wright referred to is now the
subject of a feature film based in Lancaster County that is due to be released late this year. “Brave the Dark” is the story of Nate Deen, who began life as Nate Busko and was orphaned at a young age after a tragedy involving his parents. Nate will speak at the organization’s upcoming
spring dinner because part of his story unfolded at Christ’s Home in Paradise. Nate and his wife, Jessica, had been supporters of Christ’s Home for many years, even bringing presents for the children at Christmastime. Several years ago, when the couple attended a
fundraising dinner, they met Wright and John Bryant, chief executive officer, and Nate began to tell them of his history with the organization. “We met with him and his wife for breakfast and began to dig into his story,” recalled Wright. “ We were intrigued by it.” See Christ’s Home pg 3
