Pathways is Continuing Education for Lifelong Learners
BY JEFF FALK
Learning expands the mind.
Learning fuels the soul.
Learning enriches lives.
Learning knows no age limits.
Landis Homes’ Pathways Institute for Lifelong Learning isn’t a high school, but its students are seniors.
“One of the keys of healthy aging is engaging the mind with new adventures,” said Beth Graybill, Pathways Institute’s manager at Landis Homes. “It’s a way to stay engaged with our interests. The social aspect is an important part of it. It helps people get outside of their comfort zones and engage with other seniors in topics they care about.”
All of Pathways Institute of Lifelong Learning’s classes and courses are taught at Landis Homes Senior
Living Community, 1001 E. Oregon Road, Lancaster. The courses are designed for individuals age 55 and older, and the classes attract
people who are into their 80s and 90s.
“The goal is to provide educational opportunities for folks

While not all suicides are preventable, many are. Sometimes the smallest action, the simplest word from a single individual can be the difference between life and death.
This year’s theme for the Mental Health America of Lancaster County’s (MHALC) annual suicide prevention conference is the power of one.
“We want to believe all suicides

Change is inevitable, but growth is not.
In the world of business, growth results from hard work, doing things the right way and paying attention to details. The Northern Lancaster County Chamber of Commerce’s (NLCCC) recent relocation will allow the organization to do more good, to do greater good and to promote additional business growth.
“We’re here to serve our members,” said Liz Ackerman, who’s been NLCCC’s executive director for the last six years. “But we exist for anyone who wants to be doing business in northern Lancaster County. We also have a whole lot of members who come from outside of northern Lancaster County. Our members are people. They’re not just numbers to us. Our membership is as diverse as the people of northern Lancaster County, and we’re proud it’s reflected in that way.”
On June 26, NLCCC officially opened its new offices at 4139 Oregon Pike, Ephrata. The 5-mile move from 124 E. Main St., Ephrata, where NLCCC had been headquartered for the last seven years, will allow NLCCC to serve its growing membership better.
The new location, which is convenient to routes 222, 722 and 772, also allows for convenient access from Leola, Lititz, New Holland and Denver.
NLCCC is open Mondays through Fridays from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. by appointment.
“(The Brossman Business Complex) was a great location, but we outgrew it,” said Ackerman. “We knew eventually

Fairmount Plans Auction and Barbecue Event, Workshops
Fairmount will hold its 36th annual auction and barbecue on Saturday, Sept. 13, at New Covenant Mennonite Fellowship, 529 E. Farmersville Road, New Holland. Proceeds will benefit the Sharing Fund, which helps cover the cost of care for residents who have exhausted their financial resources through no fault of their own.
The day will begin at 6:30 a.m. with the opening of a flea market, as well as a country breakfast served by donation, featuring eggs, bacon, sausage, French toast, orange juice, and more. Homemade doughnuts and coffee will also be available, with food stands opening shortly after breakfast. Pork barbecue will be back by popular demand in place of chicken barbecue.
The auctions will kick off at 9 a.m. and will include a silent auction featuring Dining for Dollars events that will close at 1:30 p.m. and a children’s auction beginning at 1:45 p.m. Auction highlights will include quilts, themed baskets, gift certificates, new furniture, specialty items, lawn furniture, and plants. A Quality Assurance Certified Angus steer will be auctioned in eighths. For those unable to attend in person, absentee bid forms will be available at the front desk of Fairmount’s Wheat Ridge building, 333 Wheat Ridge Drive, Ephrata, one week prior to the auction and must be submitted by 5 p.m. on Friday, Sept. 12.
The event will also feature children’s activities, including a barrel train ride; bounce house; and a helicopter candy drop, weather permitting. Helicopter rides will also be offered throughout the day if the weather permits.
For more information, call 717-354-1800 or visit www .fairmounthomes.org.

we were going to need to look at getting new office spaces because we were wanting to accommodate our members. At the old building, we grew exponentially, from 285 members to 565. We wanted to have event space that was part of the chamber space, and we wanted to be able to offer it to members.”
“The opportunity of this (new) building arose, and it turned out to be the perfect space for us, and everything fell into place very quickly,” continued Ackerman. “It was the right place at the right time. You don’t always get to direct things. You just have to trust the process.”
NLCCC conducted a drop-in open house on Aug. 28 to introduce its new Oregon Pike space to the community. The event included a formal ribbon-cutting ceremony and refreshments.
“There’s a lot of excitement from our members about the new chamber of commerce location, and we’re excited about
it,” said Ackerman, a resident of Reinholds. “This is something we want to share with our members. Our members have made this possible. We love the fact that our members consider us their chamber of commerce.”
In addition to new office space for NLCCC’s two-person staff, the new location features an all-purpose room that can accommodate up to 76 individuals for training, education and employee and business partner meetings.
“We have consistently added over 100 members in each of the last three years,” said Ackerman. “More and more businesses and people are realizing the geographical and the economic abilities of northern Lancaster County. We do business here in connecting ways to support each other. More and more businesses want to be part of this vibrant community.”
NLCCC represents the interests of traditional businesses, entertainment companies, manufacturers
and entrepreneurs located north of Route 30 and east of Route 72, those generally located in the Conestoga Valley, Ephrata, Warwick, Garden Spot and Cocalico school districts.
“The overall purpose of the chamber is to provide opportunities for our businesses and communities to be able to connect and showcase their services, and to support the economy of northern Lancaster County,” said Ackerman. “The growth is wonderful to see, and it brought these conversations forward. Hiring a third person is something we’re considering in the
future. One of the comments we receive most is: ‘There are only two of you? How do you do all of this stuff yourselves?’”
NLCCC was originally established as Ephrata Chamber of Commerce in 1922, before taking on its current handle in 2018.
“Our region is growing,” said Ackerman. “That is reflected in the chamber’s need to reevaluate how we can serve our members. We have strong businesses, we have strong nonprofits, and we have strong communities.”

are preventable,” said Kim McDevitt, MHALC’s executive director. “It’s such a complex issue. When you have to tell a parent that their child’s suicide was preventable, it’s really hard. There’s a lot of guilt and shame around it, and we don’t want to perpetuate it.”
“Some people are so desperate just to have someone say something to them,” said Elaine Gilbert, MHALC’s marketing and fundraising coordinator. “When you’re talking

about the power of one, that’s what we’re referring to.”
That power of one will be a point of exploration when MHALC conducts its ninth annual suicide prevention conference from 7:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. on Thursday, Sept. 18, at DoubleTree Resort, 2400 Willow Street Pike, Lancaster. Interested individuals can register at https://mhalancaster.org/ conference before Tuesday, Sept. 9.
September is National Suicide Prevention Month.
“Our goal is to highlight the importance of suicide prevention and the power we have,” said Gilbert. “We want people to be empowered and know that there are steps you can take to change a negative trajectory. Every individual has the power to make a difference in everyone’s life. It’s about getting people to understand that they have the power to make people feel connected and not alone, no matter what struggles they may be facing.”
The conference will begin at 7:30 a.m. with check-ins and breakfast. The event will include four hourlong break-out sessions addressing specific issues related to suicide, two structured breaks, lunch, a panel discussion and closing remarks.
“It’s bringing the com -
munity together for learning, for networking, for sharing and for caring,” said McDevitt. “This is really hard work. That day, there’s a lot of hope. It’s not doom and gloom. It’s people coming up with solutions. There’s a lot of conversation.”
Jennifer Storm, a nationally recognized victims’ rights expert and the author of the book “Blackout Girl,” will serve as the suicide prevention conference’s keynote speaker. The breakout sessions will be instructed by 16 mental health experts.
“When I look at what this conference is, I think it’s really bringing providers together for one common cause, for one very difficult mission,” said McDevitt. “When I’m there, I feel like I’m elevated by energy and compassion of care. This is one particular mission, and it’s directed toward saving lives. You’re working with amazing folks who are not only likeminded but also compassionate. These folks aren’t coming because they’re sent there; they’re coming because they want to be there.”
Nearly 250 individuals are expected to attend the conference, including mental health professionals, case managers, education professionals, representatives from county agencies and people who
LCCF Awards Grants
The Lancaster County Community Foundation (LCCF) has announced that $317,200 in grants has been awarded to support the work of 18 different community initiatives. These grants, ranging from
have been directly or indirectly affected by suicide. Attendees can earn credit toward mandated hours, suicide prevention continuing education and Act 48 requirements.
“It’s impossible to quantify how many lives have been saved (over the course of the convention’s existence),” said Gilbert, a resident of Lancaster city. “We’ll never know how many people have been impacted. We like to think of it as, ‘How many people don’t we know who have been saved?’”
According to the Lancaster County Coroner’s Office, five times more local residents died of suicide last year than by homicide. In 2024, more Lancaster County residents died from suicide - 65 - than from motor vehicle accidents - 53.
Currently, Lancaster County is on pace to surpass last year’s total number of suicides.
“People who commit suicide are people who are constantly struggling with their mental health. They’ve had suicidal ideations, they’ve thought about it,” said McDevitt, a resident of Manheim Township. “Mental illness is like physical illness. If you understand mental illness, those people did not take their own lives. We want to help people recognize the signs and symptoms of suicide.”
$5,000 to $55,000, will fund a variety of projects, including providing health care access to homebound geriatric neighbors, connecting local gardeners to rural food pantries, improving early childhood education programs, and sparking historical preservation.

Investing in Women’s Futures
BY CAT SHANNON
Callie Tomblin’s title may be program coordinator for Second Grace, but she’s actually an investment adviser. She’s helping her clients invest in themselves.
“I really believe in the social capital theory, where if people don’t have resources that many of us take for granted, they are kind of behind,” she said. “A lot of the women in our program are in that situation.”
Second Grace pairs young single mothers - “Graces” - with trained advocates called “Sages.” Each Sage helps a Grace navigate life, whether that’s providing transportation to appointments or getting a Grace connected to community services like food banks or GED classes. Sages might also just spend time with their Grace in a positive way, socializing and offering connection.
There are currently eight women in the Second Grace program, which focuses on women between the ages of 18 and 25, although the organization will accept Graces outside of that age range depending on the circumstances.
Tomblin, who is pursuing a master’s degree in social work, said the program coordinator position appealed to her because she wants to make a difference.
She came on board in May, and she’s excited about the goals she’s set for herself.
“Because we’re a nonprofit, there is so much we want to achieve, but it’s not always easy,” she shared. “My main goal right now is to get the program a vehicle, because over half of our girls don’t have transportation. Maybe we can teach the girls how to drive and also try to get vehicles for these girls. Not having reliable transportation is a struggle in Lancaster. It’s difficult for these girls to get to jobs or child care without transportation.”
Tomblin’s role also includes applying for grants, which she is currently in the midst of doing as she looks for a donated vehicle.
“This program isn’t like anything I have ever seen before, and I think
it’s a program that’s really needed,” said Tomblin, noting that many of the women in the program are completely on their own.
“I was telling someone the other day, ‘If I ended up homeless tomorrow, I would have 10 people who would take me in, but these girls don’t have that.’ They don’t have that support system.”
She compared Second Grace to programs like Big Brothers Big Sisters for the social supports it provides.
“Many of these women are just now entering adult life and the workforce, and they don’t have any help or resources,” she said. “We call them ‚Äòat risk’ because they’re just surviving and trying to get through.”
She’s eager to work alongside the women as they find stability.
“We’re trying to help them with mentorship and anything we can help them with,” she said. “This is not a one-size-fits-all program. We want to ask each person, ‘What do you specifically need?’ and then we try to help them as much as we can.”
Second Grace began in 2021 when founder Candace Abel was moved to start the organization after volunteering as a Court Appointed Special Advocate and noting that support was lacking for young mothers in the program.
“She saw this need, and she believes in this program,” Tomblin said. “She’s the reason this program is so amazing.” Abel founded the program in Mount Joy, but it currently operates out of Community Place on Washington, 105 E. Washington St., Elizabethtown. It serves women throughout Lancaster County.
Many of the Sages in the program have had personal
experiences that help them connect with their Grace.
“A lot of the mentors involved with us have said things like, ‘I had a baby at 17, and I would have loved to have a program like this when I was that age,’” Tomblin remarked.
The organization is always looking for women to serve as mentors or help in any capacity as a volunteer.
“We definitely need Sages, but if someone doesn’t want to be a mentor or they think that’s too much on their plate, we are looking for people who want to drive or provide child care at our meetings, or if someone is an expert on something, we’d love to have them come in and talk to the girls,” said Tomblin.
Women who are interested in becoming Sages may sign up for a training to be held on Saturday, Sept. 27. The comprehensive program will provide background on expectations

Program To Focus on Hearing Loss and Mental Health

The program will include a question-and-answer time.
from pg 5
and responsibilities of the Sages.
After the training, Sages are expected to set aside six to 10 hours a month to meet with their Grace.
“That can look like texting every week, phone calls, getting together to fill out a resume,” Tomblin said. “It can look like a lot of different areas of contact.”
She noted that the program is never lacking for
Graces, so the need for mentors is great.
“We really need volunteers,” she said. “This program can help so many people out, and it doesn’t take a lot to make a difference in a Grace’s life.”

WRT student Grace Plastino is excited for classes to
55-plus in Lancaster County,” said Graybill. “It’s really a path to enrichment and service. We are all lifelong learners, even in our senior years.”
Pathways Institute offers up to 40 classes in both the fall and the spring. The fall schedule of classes begins on Wednesday, Sept. 17, and runs through Wednesday, Dec. 10.
There are fees and memberships associated with taking the courses.
“(The classes) are really engaging,” said Graybill, a Lancaster city resident.
“The presenters give information, and there’s always time for questions and feedback. It tends to be very interactive. It’s a nice opportunity for people in the Lititz area.”
Some of the wide variety of topics covered in the courses include local history, studies of renowned authors, cooking, crafting, foreign affairs, contemporary issues, pets, musical
history, the arts and health. The courses include fieldtrip-like off-site excursions and service-learning opportunities.
There are no tests or grades associated with the classes.
“People take the classes for the intellectual engagement,” said Graybill. “It’s a way to engage your curiosity and dive into subjects you didn’t have time for when you were working. Some of the topics are things to consider as you age.”
As many as 400 Lancaster County students attend Pathways courses each semester. Approximately half of the participants are Landis Communities residents; some are residents of other local retirement communities; and others reside in the northern portions of Lancaster County, the city of Lancaster or communities like Columbia.
“They are average
people who have time on their hands,” said Graybill. “They are people who are interested in continuing lifelong learning.”
“We are supported by Landis Homes as an added service for residents,” continued Graybill. “We find that some residents choose Landis Homes because of Pathways. Pathways is one of the many opportunities available to residents at Landis Homes.”
Pathways Institute for Lifelong Learning’s teaching staff is made up of 30 instructors from local communities and surrounding communities across Lancaster County.
“Many are retired themselves,” said Graybill. “Some are former teachers or just people who have passions in particular areas.”
Pathways is financed through tuition fees, donations and funds provided by Landis Communities.
“It’s educational enrichment and surface learning,” said Graybill. “It’s about engaging our minds and spirits to become holistically involved in the wider community.”
Pathways Institute was established at Landis Homes Senior Living Community in 2007. Over the past 18 years, Pathways has served thousands of Lancaster County seniors seeking to expand their knowledge bases and sharpen their minds.
Pathways Institute began as an extension of Messiah Lifeways senior living in Mechanicsburg.
“We’ve grown a lot,” said Graybill. “We have a lot more people taking our programs. We have a broader array of classes. We now have name recognition, and we have teachers seeking us out instead of us beating the bushes for instructors.” For additional information, go to www .thepathwaysinstitute.org.
Flu, Pneumonia Vaccines Available at Giant, Martin’s
The Giant Company has announced that flu and pneumonia vaccinations are now available at all Giant and Martin’s pharmacies.
Walk-ins are welcome, but customers can also make an appointment if they prefer. Most insurance plans cover flu shots at $0 copays, including Medicare Part B.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends that everyone age 6 months and older get a flu vaccination annually, ideally by October. Vaccination to prevent influenza is particularly important for people who are at higher risk of developing serious complications from flu, including people with diabetes, pregnant women, adults over 65, those with asthma and other chronic lung diseases, those with kidney and liver disorders, heart disease patients and those with compromised immune systems.
Giant and Martin’s
pharmacies also offer pneumococcal vaccinations, which can be administered at the same time as a flu shot. The CDC recommends the pneumococcal vaccination for all children younger than 5 years old and all adults age 50 years or older. It is also recommended for both children
and adults with certain risk conditions. Immunizations are administered by immunizing Giant and Martin’s pharmacists and specially trained pharmacy team members, subject to state regulations. To find the nearest Giant or Martin’s pharmacy, visit www
.giantfoodstores.com or www.martinsfoods.com or download the free Giant or Martin’s Pharmacy app.
