88-Lancast«r Farming, Saturday, January 19,1985 Ida’s Notebook Ida Risser Despite what I feel is an already busy schedule, I’ve again con sented to being an active deacon in my church. Previously, I served for five continuous years and kept the office records of our large congregation. There are 18 on the Board of Deacons but even so there are more than enough jobs for everyone. There were over 1,800 people at the two Christmas Eve services. And, preparing for 1,000 to take communion is no small task- plus cleaning up everything afterwards really shortens one’s Sunday afternoon. We have a “tape ministry” whereby the sermon is taped and then loaned or sold to members. Many times there will be a “cof fee” between the two services and here again some of the deacons are in charge of setting up tables and serving the coffee or fruit juice. Our “reach out” department covers several areas such as “one to one visitations,” transporting people to church, serving meals to bereaved families and a prayer chain for those who are ill. Kathy Hager takes top 4-H awards DOYLESTOWN - Kathy Hager, 17, Kintnersville, collected three top honors at the 1964 Bucks County 4-H Awards program in cluding the first 4-H Dairy Herd sman plaque and the 4-H Clover Award. Hager, a senior at Palisades High School, was selected for the Dairy Herdsman Award by a committee of 4-H Leaders. The award is based on the 4-H’ers in ters! in dairy cattle, care and knowledge of her dairy animal, and overall project book score. She also received the James L. Howes Memorial Award in recognition of being the best fitter and showman at the Middletown Grange Fair in August 1964. Hager has been a member of the Springtown 4-H Club for 10 years. She participated in the Bucks County Holstein Show, and has shown her cattle at the district and state 4-H dairy shows. Active in many other areas of 4- H, Miss Hager received the 4-H Clover Award as one of the out standing 4-H members for 1984. She was on the second place state consumerama team, worked as a volunteer 4-H camp counselor, and helped organize a bus trip for 25 other 4-H’ers. Hager, daughter of Mr. & Mrs. Kenneth Hager, plans to attend Allentown Business School after graduation. a 1 —T*~ NEED % more room? i) pg&T Read The Classified Cows ON Toy aw* M*y« 4V«*/ Real Estate Ads An old folks home is visited regularly and movies are shown. There is also a “blood bank” that is administered by a deacon who in addition has charge of a number of sickroom supplies. When my youngest daughter was an active deacon, she had charge of the pamphlet rack and ordered the religious books. Some are sold and some lent. The person who handles the hundreds of Easter lilies given as memorials and the Christmas poinsettias has their hands full. Many of them are delivered to shut-ins after the services. Of course there are committees such as a nominating one and a finan cial one. Another person is responsible for a number of garden plots on the church property. And, I haven’t even mentioned the special Youth Projects nor the Christian Social Ministry. Me, I’ve volunteered to be photographer for the 100 or more new members that join our church in four different classes each year. Their pictures are posted so that the other members will connect a name with a face. We also honor them with white carriations which I will order. %l©\ Are Pm Having Problems WHh feed Ft GO<@Sp ★ FULL LINE PARTS DEPARTMENT ★ WE SELL, SERVICE & INSTALL E/MHCT3 EOUIPMENT, INC.
