Children Invited to Paint-A-Pumpkin and Trunk or Treat
BY FRANCINE FULTON
For the first time, The Factory Ministries will hold its paint-apumpkin event as part of Paradise Township’s Trunk or Treat. The event will be held on Friday, Oct. 24, from 6 to 8 p.m. at Paradise Park, 6 London Vale Road, Gordonville. No registration is required.
The collaboration came about after The Factory took part for the first time last year at the Trunk or Treat event by handing out candy from a decorated box truck.
“We were in a planning process (for this year’s paint-apumpkin), and we knew there were other community events going on,”
explained Lisa Eckert, the senior director of youth services at The Factory Ministries. “In an effort
to not overlap events, we asked (the township) if we could come to their activity the same night. We

Fire Was No Match for Restaurant’s Resilence

Everybody faces adversity of one kind or another at one time or another. Bad things happen to good people.
What matters is how we react to the difficulty, how we respond.
John Smucker, who’s been the owner of Bird-in-Hand Family Restaurant and Smorgasbord for nearly 40 years, knows some things about adversity and resolve, courage and resilience.
“I’ve had some adversity from a business standpoint, as I’ve gone through life, but nothing really, really major until COVID,” said Smucker. “We’ve got a great team here at Bird-in-Hand Family Restaurant. We have a management team who has been here many years, and we have a loyal staff. They’re with us. They have our backs. They resolved to work through it together. There is a lot of enjoyment we get from being together and working together. When you put that culture together, it equals a lot of resilience.”
Following a devastating and debilitating fire on Jan. 30, 2024, Bird-in-Hand Family Restaurant and Smorgasbord, which is located at 2760 Old Philadelphia Pike, Bird-in-Hand, officially reopened for business on Aug. 28. An anchor and gathering place in the local community, the restaurant had been closed for 20 months for cleanup, a $6 million renovation project and both physical and emotional healing.
“(Aug. 28) was a glorious day in very much the same way January 30, 2024, was a very dismal kind of dark day,” said
Last year’s paint-a-pumpkin activity was held at The Factory Ministries. This year, it will be part of Paradise Township’s Trunk or Treat.
Pastor Buck Mowday is organizing the first-time

Hempfield Is Home to Worldwide Nonprofit
BY GEORGE DEIBEL
A nonprofit organization with a global reach has its headquarters in Hempfield.
On Sept. 24, BCM International (Bible-Centered Ministries) offices moved from Granite Run to Estelle Drive in Mountville.
“We’re in what I call a growth season in the organization and adding key team members,” president Rick Rhoads said. “We outgrew the space we had. There’s good stuff happening.”
BCM International is a faith-based nongovernment organization (NGO) that seeks to reach children and strengthen churches globally in 56 countries, Rhoads said. Through camping ministry, orphanages, schools, disaster relief, and church ministry, BCM International serves approximately 3.5 million
people on a yearly basis.
“BCM International was the original Bible club movement and started 89 years ago in Philadelphia,” said Rhoads, who has been the group’s president for three years. It was founded by Bessie Traber,
who was a missionary to the Philippines. “Home on furlough, she was working with some children, and a child asked her what she did in the Philippines,” said Rhoads. “She told him, and then he said, ‘Why can’t you do that
here?’ And that’s how it started.”
Rhoads noted that in 89 years, BCM International has become involved with 56 countries and has 42 camps in 32 countries, as well as 5,000 churches, including ones in India,
Sri Lanka, and Myanmar, as well as all throughout Africa.
“Our churches and our camp ministries, like all of our ministries, are centered on the work of Jesus in the New Testament and disciple-making
principles,” Rhoads said. “Our passion is all about making disciples, empowering leaders who in turn can go make other disciples. At the end of the day, we have almost 17,000 workers, so it’s one of the

Smucker. “A substantial part of the building was damaged, some of which was structural. It was a process of six months until we got the building cleaned out to put a plan in front of code officials. You were just constantly working with moving pieces. The process seemed to be in slow gear, and there wasn’t a whole lot I could do to accelerate it.”
It was 10:15 p.m. on that night in late January of last year and Smucker was at home. The hot fire started from an overheated fan at the restaurant, and it originally charred the roof trusses. Fortunately, no one was hurt.
“On my cellphone, I’m on this list for when the Bird-in-Hand Fire Company gets a call, and I got this text message,” said Smucker. “I’m about a mile from the restaurant, and I went outside of my house and saw the smoke pouring out of the building. The fire spread fairly rapidly, but the sprinklers saved the building from total destruction. You just had a buildup of destruction on the main floor.
The ceiling imploded, and everything started falling down. As the fire was being put out, there was a lot of smoke damage and water damage on the lower level. It was just a trashy mess.”
A seasonal business affected by tourism, Birdin-Hand Family Restaurant and Smorgasbord employs between 130 and 190 workers. Some of the workers found other jobs, some received unemployment benefits and others eventually returned to work.
“The restaurant has been a gathering place for the community and out-of-town guests since 1970,” said Smucker. “It’s friends. It’s neighbors. The relationships made there go beyond food. It’s an iconic place in the Birdin-Hand community.”
“After the fire, the community wanted to help in a major way,” added Smucker. “People wanted to come out and help because they felt so bad. We decided to have a community day, and we hauled everything out of the building that was salvageable. It was some major, major investment of time by the community to make the best of it. It was a marvelous thing.”
The village of Birdin-Hand has changed
dramatically since the Smucker family first opened the restaurant 55 years ago. In 2004, the business underwent a $4 million renovation, and over the years the kitchen has been enlarged, the dining room has been enlarged, a room for large groups was added and first a small buffet and then a larger smorgasbord was offered.
“It was a blessing that no one was hurt (in the fire),” said Smucker. “It
was just all materials and things that can be rebuilt. The silver lining is we have a brand-new place and a brand-new smorgasbord. We were able to build back better. We had wanted to do some things (before the fire). The product we have today is much more efficient and guest friendly. We’re good to go for another 20 years.” For additional information, go to https:// bird-in-hand.com/ restaurant-smorgasbord.

Christmas Tree Sought for City Celebration
The City of Lancaster, in partnership with Lancaster’s Economic Action for Downtown’s Success (LEADS), is seeking an evergreen to serve as the city’s Christmas tree in Penn Square this holiday season. Property owners with a healthy conifer at least 30 feet tall and full on all sides who plan to remove the tree are encouraged to contact the city.
Interested property owners should reach out to city arborist Rick Anderer at 717-291-4846 or randerer@cityoflancasterpa. gov and include a name,
address, phone number, the tree’s location, and a photo. A jury of city staff and LEADS board members will select the tree.
The tree selected will be cut down by the city, then transported and mounted in Penn Square shortly before Thanksgiving. The donor will be recognized for the contribution in a press release and the program at the mayor’s tree lighting. After the holidays, the tree will be transformed into mulch for city parks.
The tree will be the centerpiece of the mayor’s tree lighting in November.

different pots of chili. We will have little sheets of paper (where people can vote) for their favorite.”
He noted that chili that may spicy will be clearly marked.
The latest activity is part of the church’s effort to promote camaraderie among church members and the community.
“We are always trying to figure out ways that WordUP can be involved in our community,” said Mowday. “Our café opens at 10 a.m. There will be snacks that morning and coffee before the service. We do that every Sunday. On the first Sunday of every month, we have a breakfast, and that is open to (the community) at 9:45 a.m. And it not just sandwiches. It could be scrambled eggs, steak and eggs or pancakes.”
The Sunday service is casual and contemporary and includes a message, readings from Scripture and worship music. “We offer practical (information) that you can apply when you go home through the week,” Mowday stated. “We talk about Scripture, but practical ways to fulfill those Scriptures in your life.”
WordUP started as Soup, Sandwich and Talk events that were held at
the Gap Fire Company. Each program included a variety of free soups and sandwiches with a short sermon. The programs were the predecessor to the creation of WordUp Community Ministries in 2018.
“We are the church; the building is not the church,” said Mowday. “And the church is not just the service. Church is happening in our café way before we come together to worship the Lord. We are big into relationships. It is part of our vision.”
He said that first-time visitors are especially welcome to check out what WordUP Ministries has to offer. “People here are very friendly. We have a great group of people,” Mowday added. “We have greeters downstairs and upstairs when you come in.”
WordUP is located at 160 Route 41, Gap, on the second floor of the Dutchland Inc. building. An elevator is available. For more information, visit www.wordup communityministries.org or search for “WordUP Community Ministries” on Facebook. Services are also livestreamed on the Facebook page.

Museum Plans
Halloween-Themed Event
The National Watch and Clock Museum, 514 Poplar St., Columbia, will hold its annual family-friendly Pumpkins & Pendulums event on Saturday, Oct. 25, from noon to 3 p.m.
The museum will be decked out for Halloween fun, with festive decorations and displays throughout the exhibits. The event will include themed games, crafts, and story time, as well as food trucks, door prizes, and trick-or-treating in the museum. Children and adults are encouraged to wear costumes.
Columbia Public Library staff members will read spooky children’s stories. Create Columbia will host a pumpkin-decorating station.

larger Christian organizations on the planet. But we’re tucked in here in Lancaster County as the home base.”
BCM International’s primary focus is on reaching children. Second is strengthening the church. BCM International also has orphanages, provides disaster relief services, and offers kindergarten through 12th grade schools, he said.
BCM International holds camps and Bible clubs in Lancaster County. “We look at each culture and each country and ask what it needs,” Rhoads said. “We look around here and say, ‘There’s endless amounts of churches. There’s no
need for another church here.’ But there is a need for camps that can service churches and strengthen the church. There’s also a need for Bible clubs where we can connect to children for schools. That’s what we do primarily here in the states.”
In the past year, BCM International has expanded to Ecuador, Argentina, South Sudan, and São Tomé and Príncipe. It has created a marketing department and hired a new director of marketing and communications to move into the digital age.
“I think our heartbeat is for just disciple, disciple making, and empowering national leaders in their
countries to lead,” said Rhoads. “Though we oversee the vision and provide accountability globally, we’re all about empowering local and national leaders to develop teams and to lead. We really want this to be something that, in Brazil, we want it to be a Brazilian movement, (and) in Ecuador, we want it to be an Ecuadorian movement. We want those people to know that they have what it takes to do this. ... I think our passion, at the end of day, is how we serve the kingdom and serve others well.”
Go to www.bcmintl .org for more information or to donate. “We’re a nonprofit, and we raise funds,” said Rhoads. “The finances we have all need to be raised, and we’re looking for partners that see our vision, believe in
the vision, and would want to join through prayer and then also giving financially to us. We really try to connect people on a deeper level, so they’re not just giving to something random, but to connect to very specifically a country or a national leader or a person in country that’s reaching that country.”
“We’re a missions organization, but we differ from most missions organizations,” he continued. “Most are sending people from the West, from North America, other places. That’s what we were 89 years ago. But about 30 years ago, we started making the switch, and now the people that are our missionaries, those 17,000 that I’m talking about, are all people in their country reaching their country.”
Socialization Opportunities for Seniors
Various changes are associated with aging, and these can be physical, mental, and emotional. Although each person manages these changes in his or her own way, there’s no denying that social interaction can benefit people from all walks of life as they navigate their golden years.
The Foundation for Senior Care says socializing can give seniors a sense of purpose, stimulate the mind, relieve boredom, potentially prevent feelings of depression, and give individuals something to look forward to. The senior living center Aston Gardens says socialization provides a significant boost to the cognitive health of older adults, helping to prevent or delay conditions that can affect memory. Individuals looking to cultivate healthy social interactions may turn to clubs and other groups. If there’s a dearth of opportunities, individuals can start and promote their own social club.
When considering forming a new group, people must decide on the group’s purpose. Social clubs can meet and be organized
around any number of themes or interests, such as gardening, crocheting, reading, or other shared hobbies. Friends also may be interested in doing food and beverage sampling. In such instances, a luncheon social club makes sense.
After choosing a theme, conduct a search of groups already meeting within a 50-mile radius to see if an existing group already meets your criteria. If not, proceed full speed ahead to establish the new club.
People may turn to social media to spread the word about their group. Although traditional methods of communication may still be available, such as posting information in a community bulletin or on a message board at a local house of worship, the internet can sometimes be a speedier messenger. Facebook groups are one way to organize social clubs, as is the website Meetup.com. The latter is a large online network of offline groups that meet all over the country and the world. The website makes it a snap to organize a local group or find an existing club.

Love of Film Will Unite Buffs at Red Rose Festival
BY JEFF FALK
Technically, films combine elements of images, motion, dialogue, ideas and music. It’s a combination of sensory stimuli that can evoke strong emotions and transport viewers to different places and times.
Ryan Shank, the founder of the Red Rose Film Festival, has been theatrically transported on many different occasions.
“(Films are) an escape,” said Shank. “I’ve always loved stories. I grew up on Ninja Turtles, and I also grew up on ‘Jaws.’ I love to laugh. It’s almost like therapy in a way. I’d rather listen to a story and
relate to it than talk about myself.”
This year’s edition of Shank’s annual Red Rose Film Festival will be staged on four days, from Thursday, Nov. 6, to Sunday, Nov. 9. The festival will include screenings of 60 films - feature-length movies, documentaries and shorts - from 20 countries, as well as a pair of formal gatherings.
On Nov. 6, the event will kick off with a welcome party from 5 to 9 p.m. at Zoetropolis Cinema Stillhouse, 112 N. Water St., Lancaster. Then, on Saturday, Nov. 8, the local film festival will present special awards at a gala from 6 to 10 p.m. at Penn Cinema IMAX, 541 Airport Road, Lititz.
Red Rose Film Festival will feature were selected from a group of 200 submissions. Each film was viewed by five judges from a panel of 50 and then was assigned a rating from 1 to 10 based on 10 criteria.
The majority of the films that will be screened at the festival received ratings of 8 or higher.
Among the movies that will be presented are a film called “Adamstown,” which was produced by Lancaster-based Rwandan filmmaker Andrew Bilindabagabo, and “Keep Quiet and Forgive,” which was produced and directed by Lancaster cinematographer Sarah McClure.
ence feelings of escape.
“Our biggest audiences are the filmmakers and their families,” said Shank, a resident of Marietta. “People who support the arts are typically 55 and older who want to send the elevator back down. They want to have conversations with these filmmakers, and those conversations matter. That’s what this platform provides. This is why we’re here.”
Through his creative passion for films, Shank established the Red Rose Film Festival in 2019.
Grocery Aisle
“The welcome party is just that,” said Shank, a 2004 graduate of Lancaster Catholic High School. “It’s a happy hour for filmmakers. You’re enjoying food, and you’re talking about your projects and your passion. The gala is held after all the films have been screened at least twice over the weekend. Do I call it a red-carpet event? Yes. Is it a black-tie event? No.”
“The highlight of the festival should be the works,” continued Shank. “But it will be the Lancaster businesses and filmmakers coming together. It’s really a networking event. The film industry, at its core, is collaborative.”
The 60 films that the
In 2023, it was estimated that 9,500 films were produced around the world.
“They’re thoughts and ideas that people have the courage to put on the screen,” said Shank. “How many ideas are there? How many thoughts do you have in a day?”
“Lancaster and central Pennsylvania are underrepresented in the film community,” he added. “Our goal is to advocate for the filmmakers. But we’re more an extension of tourism than we are of just the arts.”
Over the festival’s four days, more than 1,000 people, mainly from the country’s northeast corridor - Pennsylvania, New York and Baltimore - are expected to attend the Red Rose Film Festival. Many of them will experi-
“We technically copied an idea for a film festival from Dubuque, Iowa,” said Shank. “The Julien Dubuque International Film Festival is one of the top-rated film festivals in the country. They focus more on tourism than filmmaking. I was like, ‘Why don’t we have this in Lancaster? Let’s take Lancaster’s love of Lancaster and create a film festival.’ Lancaster loves Lancaster.”
“It keeps me in proximity of an industry for which I chose Lancaster over Los Angeles,” Shank continued. “I didn’t want that life, and now I’m very fulfilled. I didn’t need fame to fulfill my dream. The Red Rose Film Festival has become my platform. This is my way to be connected to artists and filmmakers.”

LBC To Host Zion Caravan Tour

ing sound. The concert will include elements of indie folk, soul, pop, and worship, and the artists will perform together throughout much of the event.

When To Replace Your Tires
Cars are a significant investment, which underscores the importance of vehicle maintenance. Maintenance is more than just tending to what’s under the hood. Tires also require drivers’ attention, as aging, damaged tires pose a safety risk and also compromise vehicle performance. Tires can be easily overlooked, but the following are four signs tires need to be replaced.
1. Worn tread: The automotive experts at AutoZone note that
tread depth is the most prevalent indicator that a tire needs to be replaced. AutoZone notes that tread depth should always be at least 1/16 of an inch throughout the tire. Depth should be measured across the tread and around the circumference.
If the tread is at or below 1/16 of an inch, the tire should be replaced.
2. Bulges, gouges, or cracks: Geico notes that a deflated tire bulges at the sides, and that can compromise the safety of everyone in the vehicle. AutoZone says bulges occur when
air gets between the inner liner and outer rubber layers, which can happen after hitting a curb or driving over a sizable pothole. A gouge or cut that is deeper than the outer layer of the tire also necessitates replacement.

discussed it, and came up with the idea of having it together.”
Pumpkins, which have been donated by a local farmer, will be provided, as well as decorating materials. “We will have paint, stickers, markers and a variety of different ways to decorate the pumpkins,” Eckert said. She noted that the pumpkin painting will take place in the park’s upper pavilion, and the activity will run while supplies last.
In past years, paint-apumpkin was held outdoors at The Factory, and then it moved into the youth center gymnasium. Families were able to decorate pumpkins and enjoy a light meal. Between 100 and 150 people generally attended the event. “The families do a great job in decorating,” noted Eckert.
In addition to the pumpkin-painting station on Oct. 24, children will be able to collect candy and treats as they travel from vehicle

Group leaders should also establish consistent meeting times, as most people prefer a schedule so they can plan their days accordingly. Choose a regular meeting time and place to hold the social club; otherwise, it can be confusing to accommodate everyone. Inconsistency also can make it hard to get the club off the ground.
People forming new clubs are advised to start small and then build. For those new to hosting
social clubs, it may be better to begin with only a few members as everyone gets into a groove. As the group becomes more established, it can be opened up to more members, although people may consider capping membership so that the group is more easily managed. Social clubs are a great way for seniors to stay connected and active. When there isn’t one that meets a person’s interests, he or she may consider starting one.

Tires
from pg 11
3. Poor grip: Drivers may be able to feel certain tire problems, including poor grip, while driving. In such instances, tires may feel as though they are slipping. The tire experts at Firestone note that low tread can reduce tire traction and cause wheels to slip, which may be more noticeable when accelerating from a stop or driving on wet roads. Drivers who feel their tires are slipping can test the tread and replace tires that are low.
4. Vibration: Vibration is another issue drivers may feel rather than see. Identifying the cause requires noting where the vibra -

tions are felt. Geico notes that vibration or thumping that feels like it’s coming from under the seats may indicate the tires are not balanced. A suspension issue could be to blame if the steering wheel feels like it’s vibrating. Either feeling should be brought to the attention of a mechanic immediately.
Tire issues affect vehicle performance and compromise the safety of drivers, their passengers, and fellow motorists. When vehicles are not performing at peak capacity, drivers should not overlook various tire issues as a potential cause of such troubles.

Webinar on Retinal Surgery Scheduled
VisionCorps will offer an online webinar about surgery on the retina of the eye on Monday, Oct. 27, from 1:30 to 3 p.m. as part of its speaker series. The event is free and open to the public.
Dr. Dina Gewaily, an experienced retinal surgeon from Lancaster Retina Specialists, will present information about retinal surgery. She previously practiced in Philadelphia and is an assistant professor of ophthalmology at the Scheie Eye Institute at the University
of Pennsylvania, where she was chosen as the first female surgical retina fellow. She was a member of the surgical retina team that developed the first FDA-approved gene therapy in the U.S. for an inherited disease.
The presentation will include a discussion of the reasons a patient might consider retinal surgery, how it is performed, the benefits and risks, and the recovery after surgery. Gewaily will also discuss the future direction of retinal surgery.
Retinal surgery could be recommended for eye conditions such as retinal detachment, epiretinal membrane (ERM), macular hole (MH), complications from diabetic retinal disease or cataract surgery, floaters, trauma,
or oncology/tumors. A question-and-answer period will follow the presentation. Call 717-205-4199 or email sschafebook@ visioncorps.net to register and receive the link to attend.
