Anyone is welcome to attend the free concert, which will be held at Highland, 500 E. Roseville Road, Lancaster, at 7 p.m. on Sunday, Nov. 10. The event will feature big band music combined

“This story is powerful because it speaks of people in the Warsaw Ghetto and how they clearly saw what their future was like,” said Bob Ruder. Ruder further explained that Jewish Family Services (JFS) was bringing “Who Will Write Our History,” a film written and directed by Roberta Grossman and executive produced by Nancy Spielberg, to Penn Cinema, 541 Airport Road, Lititz, on Monday, Nov. 11, as a follow-up to the group’s 2018 showing of “GI Jew.” Showings will be at 2 and 7 p.m. According to Ruder, the film goes back and forth in time, interspersing footage from World War II with present-day actors and actresses. “You go from modern to archival, so you have to pay attention,” said Ruder.

into an entirely unrelated career. Some people, when they retire, become “gentleman farmers,” with a few acres and a handful of cattle that they can manage with low stress and minimal effort. Jason and his wife, Tay, had a much bigger dream, and they bought a 1,000-acre farm in Louisburg, N.C. The one problem? Neither Jason nor Tay had experience farming. Just as he did with football skills, Jason turned to YouTube to learn what he needed to run a farm. “I grew up with a little bit of a green thumb, did a little bit of landscaping with my father, as far as planting shrubs and trees and flowers here and there, but doing it on a large scale? No, this was totally brand new to me,” Jason explained in an episode of “Growing a Greener World” that was reposted at https://wisdomforlife.org/ firstfruitsfarm. See Ag Banquet pg 9
Group Plans To Take Part In Upcoming Bazaar By Ann Mead Ash
Back in 2005, May Kay Hymes founded a quilting group at Highland Presbyterian Church, 500 E. Roseville Road, Lancaster. Hymes has left the area, but she keeps in touch with the quilters by hosting yearly
quilting retreats. The Highland Quilters still meet each Wednesday in Room 204 of the church, and they estimate they have completed approximately 35 quilts per year since the group began working together. In addition to quilts, members of the group make quilted items such as placemats, table runners, and quilted bowl holders that can be used in the microwave.
