Page 16 Fraternity- Testvériség their tummies, the group headed off to clean and scrub the Sunday school room. Dust cloths, mops and brooms constituted the arsenal for cleaning the baseboards and floor, where the children sit for their lessons. Some fding was also done to bring the room to final order. The outside area went through some metamorphosis as well: the cleaning up of the branches and filling the area up with mulch gave a nice frame to the freshly planted flowers. Children who were involved in the project benefited not only through helping their church but also from learning to keep the room organized. Everybody gained satisfaction from this activity. Both the pastor and the group were happy to see the eye-pleasing results. The second group decided to set an example for the children about how neighbors should help each other out and include the youth in the welcoming and serving project. The group’s objectives were to show hospitality to two new neighbors and to be a community at work. The work started at 10 in the morning with cleaning up debris from the yard, cutting and pulling weeds, and mulching and cleaning around the trees. Planting a flower bush was a gift from our group to the new neighbors. At dinner time we provided a cabbage casserole for each family, which they loved and welcomed. By working together we could show the children how important it is to be a part of the community and we got to know each other a lot better by the end of the day. We felt our new neighbors were genially welcomed, and happy by all the help that was provided, especially when settling down in a new home. Our third project embraced a diverse group composed of another branch, and organization: Branch 151, 198 and the William Penn Association - Springdale, PA April 30, 2005: The morning started out with considerable uncertainty due to the pouring rain. The location of the project was Springdale, 45 miles from Beaver Falls. The group of passionate fratemalists decided “rain or sunshine, let’s do all we can do”. We met at McDonald’s for breakfast and started our journey in the hopes that the rain would stop. We arrived at the church at 9:30am and by then the weather was in our favor. We realized how much the church needed our attention: we chopped and cut fallen trees and branches, trimmed shrubbery, mowed the grass, and cleaned up the debris. We were excited for what was accomplished. Combining our forces and enthusiasm with branches 198 and the William Penn Association was a great fellowship. It was our desire to make the people that attend the church pleased with the result of our work. Donald Lambert.
