Mosherville Baptist Bible Church was struck by a pickup truck

TRUCK STRIKES CHURCH
FNN Article © 2019. Church images provided by MBBC.
GILLETT, PA - The Mosherville Baptist Bible Church was struck by a pickup truck around 3:55PM on Friday, December 27, 2019, in Wells Township.
Fire crews from Big Elm (Daggett) and Millerton, as well as, police were dispatched to 9914 Coryland Road in Gillett, PA, although some will argue the church is located in Millerton but has a Gillett address.
The male driver was able to climb out of his truck in which both airbags were deployed when the truck hit the church head on.
According to a church member the church was hit on the side wall of their library and the front door entry area of the building, closest to the nearby graveyard parking lot.
The collision of the truck with the church exterior wall caused structural damage to the building, as the ceiling and wall were damaged. Part of the ceiling and a section of wall broke apart. Wood debris could be seen laying on the floor of the church as fire personnel checked out the scene.
Church attendees are being asked that on Sunday, December 28th that those coming use only the side doors on the cemetery side of the property, as the front entrance will be closed due to the damage caused by the accident. Morning worship will be held at 10:30AM. No one should enter the chapel area either.
The church is having the damaged section of teh church checked out and will be keeping people from that section of the church until they can get it checked over and estimates on the cost to fix the area damaged in the crash.
The driver was seen walking around and talking. It was reported to FNN that it was believed the driver did not suffer any injuries in the incident, however, FNN could not confirm that information at this time.
Police are handling the investigation of this accident scene.

The Barbara Moscato Brown Library is excited to announce that beginning February 1, they will be offering new, extended hours of operation on Saturdays thanks in part to an increase in state funding.

To keep the schedule even, Wednesday hours of operation will shift an hour later and the library will be open from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
The remainder of the week’s hours of operation will remain from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday – Friday (except Wednesdays) and the library will remain closed on Sundays. No program or club schedules will be affected by the new hours.

Veronica M. Jeselnick, of Elk Towers, St. Marys, PA
Veronica M. Jeselnick
Veronica M. Jeselnick, of Elk Towers, St. Marys, PA, went to heaven Thursday (Dec. 26, 2019) at Elk Haven Nursing Home, following a brief illness.
Born Nov. 28, 1919, in Brooklyn, NY, “Ronnie” was the last of two sisters and four brothers: Marie, Josephine, Joseph, George, Peter and Rudy.
Veronica left school at age 15 to help the family income. She worked at a convent on weekends where she earned 50 cents per session.
In young adulthood, Veronica worked in a bank in Manhattan and a defense factory during WWII. She is remembered as a feisty, amiable lady with a sharp wit and a ready smile. She loved card games “California” and “5 Card Bingo” that she played with sons and friends at Elk Towers, her home for 32 years. Ronnie was cherished by many residents. In recent years, she’d yell out “Come in, come in!” from her wheelchair or couch. Loyal neighbors Diane, Joan, Rosemary, MaryAnn and Theresa often visited.
After the war, Veronica married John S. Jeselnick in 1946 in Brooklyn and lived in Somerville, New Jersey where they had five boys. In 1958, John left the Ford plant and moved the family to St. Marys, his hometown. In 1961, their sixth son, Gregg, was born.
Veronica stayed home to raise six boys. In her 40s she worked as a Green Thumb nutrition aide and in ECC’s kitchen. John fondly recalls her making hearty dinners before the sons’ HS games. Veronica was very opinionated on cooking and cleaning. She meticulously kept a gourmet spice cabinet and handwritten recipes and often watched chef shows. She insisted on beefy chili, as her CN aides know.
Ronnie is preceded in death by her husband, John S. and two sons, Francis J. and Robert G. Surviving are sons John G. (Kathy) of Eldred, PA; Michael G. of St. Marys; Gerald of Rossiter, and Gregg (Renee) of Littleton, CO; and two grandchildren, Jared Jeselnick of Colorado and Michelle Culbert of Florida.
Veronica’s expertise as a baker is highly renowned throughout her family and friends. An incredible walnut bread or “baboulasie” is the family favorite. Over 70 years her sons and relatives anticipated this holiday treat; sons continue the tradition. Ronnie’s baking won several ribbons at the Elk County Fair. One of her favorite phrases is “What do you got to go with that coffee?”
Although Veronica never drove a car, she enjoyed traveling to see her youngest son’s family in Denver and trips to NJ. In early 2000s she rode Amtrak, flew to Denver and rode the bus to Olean, NY to visit John and Kathy in Eldred. She accidentally fell in 2012, breaking her left hip. After surgery in Olean the surgeon jovially told her to “stay out of Olean.”
When Veronica reached her 90s, her family honored several birthdays at Gunners Restaurant with dinner parties. She was always thrilled to see her sons, grandson, local nieces, three NJ nephews and a niece and their children. Her recent 100th birthday parties were beautiful events in her life. At the zenith of her life she was determined to enjoy people.
A Mass of celebration will be held Tuesday, January 7, 2019 at the Sacred Heart Church, Center Street, St. Marys at 10:00 AM, with the Rev. Michael Gabler, OSB, Pastor, officiating. Burial will be in the Fort Indiantown Gap Cemetery.
Memorial donations may be made to the Community Nurses, Inc., 757 Johnsonburg Road, Suite 200, St. Marys, PA 15857 or to the Elk Haven Nursing Home, 785 Johnsonburg Road, St. Marys, PA 15857.
The Lynch-Radkowski Funeral Home is in charge of arrangements. Online condolences may be offered at www.lynch-radkowski.com.

Think About It
Christmas
by Pastor B.J. Knefley
It’s a quiet Christmas morning at my house. Children, grandchildren and greatgrandchildren will be arriving later today. Not all of them, just a few that live close by but that will still mean a house full. I’m going to cook prime rib outside on the grill and my mouth is watering already.
Christmas is most often viewed as a joyous time. A time for family and friends to gather together. But for some it’s not joyous. In fact, I would venture a guess that all of us can look back and remember a Christmas or two that were not joyous. For some, Christmas has a new normal, one that they hadn’t anticipated or even considered would be their new experience. I like the saying that says, “Life happens while we’re making other plans”. It’s true isn’t it? Just in my own circle of friends and family there are some who are experiencing their first Christmas without their loved one. Another is in a place that they would have never predicted a year ago. A young mother is saying goodbye to her husband who heads back out to the oilfields to work on Christmas morning.
I don’t know how often we think about it, but Christmas is about Christ. I wonder how often we think about him beyond the holiday season? I read of a Pastor who said that we need to take Christ out of the manger and bring him into the rest of our lives each and every day. Why? Simply because the manger is only one side of the coin, the other side has a cross. And although we may not like it, life too has a cross. Sometimes it’s hard. We don’t get everything we want. Jesus said that he had come to give life, (John 10:10). Yet in the giving of life to us, it had a cost.
I don’t know what this new year will bring and neither do you. But what I do know is that I can choose to live like Jesus lived and I can love like Jesus loved. I may not do it perfectly, but I can try and when I fail, and I will, I can get back up and start again. The manger is about new beginnings. The year is full of hope, embrace it, it is yours to grasp, but it is a choice.
Think about it.

First Day Hike at Sinnemahoning State Park
On Wednesday, January 1, 2020, start the new year on the right foot with a First Day Hike at Sinnemahoning State Park.
Have fun outdoors with an easy 2.5-mile guided hike on fairly level trails near the Wildlife Center. Search for dens, nests, and other animal signs, as you learn about DCNR’s trail system and additional hiking and outdoor recreation opportunities throughout the coming year.
This free program will meet at the Wildlife Center at 1:00 p.m. The group will return to the Wildlife Center around 3:00 pm. No pre-registration is required.
Hikers should dress for the weather, bring water and wear waterproof shoes or boots. Recommended for adults and children age 8 and over. Well-behaved dogs on short leashes are welcome. Program will be held regardless of weather. For current road conditions, please call the park office.
For more information on park programs and events, please contact Sinnemahoning State Park at (814) 647-8401 or SinnemahoningSP@pa.gov or visit the online DCNR Events Calendar at https://events.dcnr.pa.gov/sinnemahoning_state_park/calendar.
If you need an accommodation to participate in PA State Park activities due to a disability, please contact the park you plan to visit. With at least seven days’ notice, interpreters for people who are deaf or hard of hearing are available for educational programs.
