St. James’ Knights Shine a Bright Light
BY JEFF FALK
Faith can move mountains.
But faith with acts of service becomes even more powerful and impactful.
By using their collective talents, St. James Catholic Church’s Knights of Columbus honor God by helping others.
“You can be a wonderful person, but we derive part of our inspiration from our Christian teachings and upbringings,” said Rick Thompson, who’s been St. James’ Knights’ membership director for two years. “We received the greatest gift (Jesus Christ), and in turn
we try to repay that with the gifts we’ve been given. I feel my job as a Christian is more about service and providing care for people with needs. An old farmer once said to
me, ‘You go to church on Sunday to get recharged so you can go out and be of service.’ You draw inspiration from being in your faith community.”

Miss Lancaster County Puts Service Before Self
BY GEORGE DEIBEL
Kathryn Davis is a staunch believer in serving her community and country.
The 2024 Lampeter-Strasburg (L-S) High School graduate was crowned Miss Lancaster County last fall, earning the right to compete in the Miss Pennsylvania pageant in mid-June at the Appell Center for the Performing Arts in York.
“I’m super excited to represent my hometown,” said Davis.
The victor of the Miss Pennsylvania contest will advance to the Miss America pageant. “It’s something I’ve dreamt about since I was a little girl,” said Davis. “Right now, my focus is on Miss Pennsylvania. Whatever God has in store will happen.” She was enthroned as Miss Lancaster County Sept. 24 at Ephrata High School. “It was so unexpected,” Davis said.

Movie actors Tom Cruise, Meryl Streep and Denzel Washington are Hollywood box office heavyweights. But if you want to view real stars on a really big screen, head to the North Museum’s planetarium.
“It’s really nice to see when people get really excited for it,” said Cole Penkunas, who’s been the North Museum’s resident astronomer for two years. “It gets me really excited when people ask questions. It shows me they’re interested in science
The competition was composed of a 10-minute interview, which was 30% of the total score; an onstage question about the contestants’ community service initiative (10%); talent demonstration (20%); a fitness competition in athleticwear (20%); and an evening gown walk (20%).
Three titles - Miss Southern Lancaster County, Miss Heart of Lancaster, and Miss Red Rose City - were announced prior to Miss Lancaster County. Davis thought she had a better chance to win one of those crowns, but she tried to remain optimistic before the announcement of the

Blue Ridge Launches “Touch a Heart” Initiative

Blue Ridge will accept submissions through Tuesday, Feb. 3. They can be dropped off at any Blue Ridge retail center.

big prize. “I was definitely nervous, but I had a little bit of hope,” she said. Casey Allyn, a radio personality and friend of Davis’, was bestowed the honor of divulging the winner. “When Casey called my name, it was utter shock and happiness that I get to serve my community,” said Davis.
Davis has been attending other local competitions to show support for her sister queens and will visit blood drives, which goes along with her community service initiative PhlebotomyFam. For more information about local scholarship competitions and PhlebotomyFam, go to https:// MissKathrynDavis.com.
She is grateful for the support from her coaches, Juven Nava and Annika Wooton of Crown the Nation, and her mother, Jozlyn Grodski.
Davis, who previously served as Miss Greater Reading’s Teen 2025 and Miss Lancaster County’s Teen 2024, is a freshman at Shippensburg University, where she is a member of the ROTC program and plans to major in history. Davis’ goal is to graduate from Shippensburg as a second lieutenant in the Army.
Her father, Timothy Davis, served in the Marines and is currently a member of the Air National Guard. The younger Davis had long mulled joining the armed forces but only recently decided to commit. “I never thought I was strong enough to do it,” she said. “I finally got the guts to do it. It’s important to me to serve my country, not only as a titleholder but also serving in the Army. My family always emphasized service. We always give what we don’t need to people who need it. As a Christian, it’s what I am called to do, and I want to be the best version of myself I can be.”

and astronomy. They’re excited about something I’m excited about.”
Simply put, the planetarium is one of the most popular attractions at a place - the North Museum of Nature and Science, located at 400 College Ave., Lancaster - that has so many interesting exhibits to experience. Admission to the planetarium, which offers shows mainly on Saturdays and Sundays at 11 a.m. and 2 p.m., is included with admission to the North Museum.
“For me, there’s definitely a coolness factor to it,” said Penkunas. “I think some of it is because we want to know where we exist in the universe. Astronomy can tell us a lot about physics, about the Earth and the nature of reality on a really big scale. I think astronomy just being the study of the stars is just very appealing to a lot of people. A lot of people want to explore the world. Earth has been well charted, and now people are looking up for new stuff.”
The unidirectional planetarium at the North Museum is physically made up of 70 seats and a 40-foot-diameter dome. A projection system uses special lenses to portray images of stars, galaxies, moons, constellations and
other celestial bodies on the auditorium’s ceiling.
“It’s more of a traditional movie-style planetarium where everyone faces the same way,” said Penkunas, a resident of Lititz. “The main thing with the planetarium is to get more space education out there. The goal is to educate about space and stars in fun and immersive ways.”
Based on a rotating schedule, the planetarium offers about 15 to 20 different shows for adults and kids throughout the year, including “Night Sky Tours” and other seasonal presentations. That’s a total of more than 240 of the 30- to 40-minute presentations annually.
The planetarium also periodically offers shows on dinosaurs and super volcanoes, as well as select documentaries.
“I think we have a really good understanding of our solar system as it exists now,” said Penkunas. “We have a good understanding of the sun. But there are still a lot of questions. We have a really good idea of how planets formed, but we don’t know a lot of the specifics. We know a lot more than we ever did before, but a lot of the exact mechanisms of astronomy are still very much being researched. Overall, there’s

still a lot to learn.”
The North Museum’s planetarium receives more than 2,500 visits each year. Some come from curious out-of-town tourists, but mainly they are from Lancaster County adults and students who want to learn about other worlds, as well as the world around them.
“A lot of times it’s people who have never been to a planetarium before,” said Penkunas. “They hear there’s a planetarium, and they get excited. A lot of people come here just for the planetarium. Planetariums aren’t super common, and they aren’t easy to find.”
“I always want people to think astronomy is cool and accessible,” continued Penkunas. “Space is far away, but we’re not far away. I think it’s important for people to have an interest in astronomy.”
The planetarium, which was built in the 1960s and renovated in 2012, is located on the main floor of the three-floor structure that houses the North Museum of Nature and Science. The planetarium is surrounded by 12 main sections, each featuring its own themed exhibits, displays and collections.
“I’d say that the planetarium is a companion to the rest of the museum,” said Penkunas. “It’s one of
the ways we drive people to come here. There are two main features; the first is the rest of the museum and the second is the planetarium. It’s one of the main features.”

Located at 505 Woodcrest Ave., Lititz, St. James Catholic Church’s Knights of Columbus Council 10827 serves both the church and the community directly, all the while deriving companionship through interactions.
The men who are members of St. James’ Knights of Columbus conduct fundraisers, cook and perform kitchen duties for church functions, lead Rosaries at Mass, actively support vocations to the priesthood, sponsor youth basketball and soccer competitions, host trivia nights and clean up a 1-mile stretch of Route 501 as part of the state’s Adopt-A-Highway program. Knights of Columbus Council 10827 meets at 7:30 p.m. on the second Sunday of every month in a classroom at the church.
During the 2024-25 fraternal year, St. James’ Knights received the prestigious Star Council award for excellence in membership recruiting, parish and community
support and the financial awareness of members.
“It’s largely a service group. We don’t do that many things just for ourselves,” said Thompson. “Everything is for the larger community, the church community and the Warwick community. We do care for one another, and charity is important to us. If you’re into socializing and charity, this is where the action is if you’re a man.”
Currently, St. James Catholic Church’s Knights of Columbus boasts 115 members age 18 and up. Most of them reside in Lititz, Warwick and the surrounding areas.
“They’re men who value the same things I value,” said Thompson, a resident of Warwick Township. “They’re the ones who put in the hours. There are people who choose to put in a lot of hours for the Knights, and there are those whose volunteer days are behind them. But we want to appeal to families.”
“It’s like an extended
family,” added Thompson. “We share the faith life, and we have enough in common. We all have to get along and serve one another.”
St. James’ Knights of Columbus group operates under a $10,000 to $12,000 annual budget. Among the nonprofits and programs that the Knights support are Special Olympics, Aaron’s Acres, the Lititz-Warwick Community Chest food bank, youth trips and conferences, the financial health of the families of deceased Knights, A Woman’s Concern and activities sponsored by the Diocese of Harrisburg.
“We try to support as many organizations as possible, but there are administrative costs involved,” said Thompson. “I like growing the organization, and not just in terms of membership. I want to get people to have better communications and have better marketing. I’d like to have a greater appeal in the church.”
There are nearly 20 Roman Catholic congregations
Women’s Group to Meet
Women of all ages and preschool children are invited to attend Neighbors Sharing and Caring, a women’s ministry of the Chiques Church, 4045 Sunnyside Road, on Tuesday, Feb. 3, from 9 to 10:45 a.m. Aubrey Geib will present “Growing in Biblical Love.” She will discuss what the Bible says about love, how people are loved, and what it looks like to show love to others.

worshipping in Lancaster County, and approximately a third of those churches sponsor Knights of Columbus councils. Council 10827 was formed at St. James Catholic Church in 1992.
Founded by Father Michael McGivney in 1882, the Knights of Columbus operates more than 17,000 councils in more than a dozen countries around the world.
“There is a long tradition associated with being a Knight,” said Thompson. “The idea of a Knight is a reference to medieval times. The Catholic church is a hierarchy, and the pastor needs men to rely on to get things done.”
For additional information about St. James’ Knights of Columbus, email Thompson at rickt4951@gmail.com.
Aubrey and her husband, Joel, live in Elizabethtown and are members of Chiques Church. Aubrey works full time at her family’s dairy farm in Marietta. She enjoys baking with fresh-milled flour, reading, and listening to podcasts. During the program, child care will be provided for infants through prekindergartners. Readers may contact Bonnie at 717-361-2613 or Veronica at 717-626-7603 for more information and a copy of this year’s schedule.
