 | For the third year, Lafayette Hill residents and staff help decorate a Sukkah, a decorated hut which Jewish people are commanded to construct for temporary use during the Sukkot holiday. This holiday, which always begins five days after Yom Kippur, commemorates the 40-year period during which the children of Israel wandered in the desert, living in temporary shelters. |

| The Rev. A. Preston Van Deursen and members of the Outreach Committee from the Congregation of Sell Chapel in Elizabethtown present a $4,600 check to Harry Bear and Bill Jurell, president and fire chief, respectively, at Campbelltown Volunteer Fire Company.
The Outreach Committee selected the Campbelltown Volunteer Fire Company as the recipient of its monthly Outreach Project because it endured numerous expenses after a tornado leveled 37 homes and damaged more than 100 others this past July in Campbelltown, located 12 miles north of Elizabethtown. The fire company assisted the local community with clean-up efforts and opened its Social Hall to feed Campbelltown residents who were affected by the storm.
To date, more than $60,000 has been collected from the Outreach Project. |
