LUTHERAN CHURCH HERE, AL-
THOUGH 39 YEARS OLD, STILL
ONE OF THE HANDSOMEST EDI-
FICES IN THE COUNTY
The following article is from an old
Mount Joy Herald in my possession,
dated Oct. 3, 1896.
M. M. LEIB
The happiest day in the history of the
Trinity Lutheran congregation of Mt.
Joy, occurred on Sunday, September
27th, when their beautiful new build-
ing was formally entered and conse-
crated to the worship of Almighty God.
Nature rejoiced with the congregation,
the weather ideal, the crowds large, the
offerings substantial, the ceremonies
taught by Misses Annie Boyce and
Maggie Baer, Mrs. Sarah Hartman, Mrs
J. H. Umbenhen’s class, the Sunday-
officers, Bible class, Mrs. Irene Car-
many and class, Miss Sybilla Boyce and
class, Mrs. S. W. Vandersaal, Mr. and
Mrs. John Peifley class No. 1 taught by
Miss Manning, Mrs. J. S. Carmany, Mr.
and Mrs. David H. Behney, Ellwood R.
Steckel and four by friends.
The chancel furniture is partly do-
nated, the lecture by the Dillinger fam-
ily, the altar by the Lutheran churches
in Lancaster, the hymn boards will be
the gift of Mr. D. H. Engle. Mr. H. U.
Coble of Elizabethtown presents the
baptismal font. The corner stone is a
gift of Mann & Co., York; the chancel
railing is given by Mr. Seachrist, York.
Private donations have been liberal and
numerous, the largest given by the
Ladies’ Aid Society.
The congregation organized in 1827 is
69 years old, the first in the town. It
has 89 members and its school numbers
125. It has its 19th pastor. Eight are
still living most of whom are occupying
prominent positions. The present pas-
tor received a call from this congrega-
tion while in the Theological Seminary
interesting and solemn. At 10 o'clock
the officiating clergymen consisting of
the Rev. Theo. L. Seip, D. D., president
of Muhlenberg College and of the Min-
isterium of Pennsylvania, the Rev. Geo
H. Hancher, Ph. D., principal of the
Kutztown Normal School, Rev. J. Fish-
burn, Elizabethtown and the pastor
Rev. M. J. Bieber, followed by the
church council, Messrs. Henry Miller
and Lewis Seeman, trustee, elders Dr.
F. M. Harry, M. M. Brubaker and Chas.
L. Dierolf, deacons bearing the sacred
vessels and the Bibles also accompanied
by the choir, proceeded in a body from
the home of Mr. John H. Buohl to the
church entrance. After the invocation
and prayer by the pastor, the keys were
handed to Dr. Seip who unlocked the
door and the procession slowly enter-
ed the temple responsively repeating
the 122nd Psalm. After the Bible and
sacred vessels were deposited in their
places, the act of consecration was per-
formed by the President. The morning
services were conducted by the Rev.
Fishburn, after which Dr. Seip preach-
ed the consecration sermon from Ps.-
84:1. “How amiable are thy tabernacles,
O Lord of Hosts.” The children’s ser-
vice in the afternoon commencing at 2
o'clock was well attended and given to
congratulatory addresses from Revs.
Seip, Fishburn, P. A. Laury, Marietta,
W. H. Harding, Maytown and Dr. Han-
cher. The capacity of the house was
tested in the evening when over 500
people were present. The service was
conducted by the pastor. Dr. Hancher
preached an eloquent and forceful ser-
mon on Luke 22:63; “and the men that
held Jesus mocked Him.” Special mu-
sic was rendered during the day by
Wm. M. Mearig, Leacock, Pa. This
beautiful churchly structure is situated
on West Main street on the highest
point in Mount Joy, on a lot 75x200 ft.
partially donated by Mr. Philip Frank.
Ground was broken on May 31st, 1895
and the corner stone laid on Sept. 27th,
one year ago. On the anniversary of
this imposing ceremony the consecra-
tion services of the finest church in the
town was held. The building is 62x92
feet, built of local blue limestone with
Indiana limestone trimmings, in Goth-
ic, containing a covered tower 60 feet
high, through which is the main en-
trance. The interior contains the main
auditorium and Sunday-school room,
separated by movable glass partitions.
The Sunday-school room contains a li-
brary, infant department and two class
rooms. It is lighted by a six-light
chandelier, Welsbach burners, the floor
is covered with matting, the furniture
consisting of little settees for the prim-
ary department and chairs for the main
room and a pulpit furnished by the
willing workers. The furnishings in the
Sunday school room are the gift of the
Sunday-school. The main auditorium
contains a robing room, chansel recess |
and organ recess. It is carpeted with
ingrain and lighted by a beautiful six-
teen light chandelier, the gift of the
Luther League, which active organiza-
tion also paid for frescoing the walls.
The windows are memorial, of stained
glass, the admiration of all. The prin-
ciple subjects are “Christ on Gethsem-
ane,” donated by Rev. E. W. Welskiten,
Phila. and F. M. Stettler, N. Y.; “Christ
the Good Shepherd, by Walter Brown, |
Mount Joy; “Charity” by Mr. and Mrs.
A. Haldeman, Mount Joy. The main
auditorium contains four other win-
dows, large, excellent in color and with
appropriate emblems, gifts of the Buohl
family Henry Miller, Rev. J. H. Um-
benhen and Rev. A. M. Weber. The
Sunday-school room and other win-
dows were given by Infant School,
at Mt. Airy, which he accepted and was
| installed on June 3, 1894.
Services were held every evening
| during the week. On Monday the ser-
| vices were conducted by the Luther
League. The Rev. H. L. Baugher, D.D,,
President of the General Synod and of
the Penn's Luther League in his elo-
quent and interesting manner spoke on
“The Young People.” The devotional
exercises were conducted by the Rev.
Geo. Sieger of Lancaster who also ad-
dressed the meeting. Mrs. Andrew Dil-
linger of Philadelphia read a history of
the League. The League was conducted
by Will Heilig, president and Emma
Dierof, secretary. Music was render-
ed by the League Quartette and a duett
by Miss Staley and Miss Mame Kuhns.
On Tuesday evening at the Union ser-
vices Rev. H. R. Bozarth of the Metho-
dist church preached an inspiring ser-
mon and the Rev. A. H. Long offered
congratulations in a pleasing address.
Miss Elsie Kolp with Miss Grace Cling
as accompanist rendered excellent mu-
sie.
The Memorial sermon on Wednesday
evening was preached in the German
language by the Rev. A. M. Weber, a
former pastor and Rev. E. Meister of
St Stephen’s Lutheran church, Lancas-
ter, offered congratulations.
On Thursday evening the Ladies’ Aid
Society was addressed by the Rev. A.
M. Mehrtsam, pastor of St. John’s Lu-
theran church, Columbia, on “Woman
in the Church.” Its history was read by
the secretary, Miss Manning and excel-
lent music rendered by Miss Nagle and
Mr. Will Fendrich of Columbia.
The “Willing Workers” on Friday
evening rendered a fine program. Their
and aim were presented by the
president, Mabel Brown and the Rev.
C. L. Frey of Trinity Lutheran church,
Lancaster, addressed them on “Mis-
sions.”
The church completed cost $10,000. It
is heated by hot air and is in all re-
spects a model edifice. The untiring
energy of the pastor, Rev. M. J. Bieber,
has its reward in a monument that will
proclaim to future generations his de-
votion to the object which he took up-
on himself to accomplish.

Pullets Need Nests
Where the laying house is already
fully occupied by older birds, nests
can be provided in the brooder house
or summer shelter for early pullets.
This is better than to allow the pullets
tc get in the habit of laying on the
ground or floor. The nests should be
protected from storms.
