Lending a Helping Hand

Marlys Hershberger of Woodbury, Beverly Hoffman of Martinsburg and Julie Witkovsky of Roaring Spring were among a group of about a dozen volunteers from the Middle Pennsylvania District Church of the Brethren painting the benches at Morrisons Cove Memorial Park, Martinsburg, Monday morning, Sept. 22.

The group is part of the Brethren Disaster Ministry which usually works out of the area lending a helping hand at natural disaster areas. With the pandemic, they have been working closer to home this year installing more than a dozen handicap ramps.
