The Van Wyck Community Prayer Vigil, which was held in June to address some of our greatest challenges was a great success. The sense of community love that we, the organizers, felt as we prayed and asked for guidance on how to work together to make our community safer was overwhelming. Thank you for your willingness to work with us on this most important project.

We cannot continue without your prayers and support.

On Saturday, September 28, 2019, we will hold a second community event at the Van Wyck Community Center from 2:00 p.m. - 6:00 p.m. Our theme for the event is “Community Round Up”.

Lancaster County professionals will present information on drug awareness, church safety, domestic violence, and bicycle safety. The day will also be filled with fun, games, music, and food for all ages. Bring your pop-up tents, lawn chairs, and picnic dinners and participate in community fellowship all afternoon. Families can even bring grills and cook out! Our common goal is to make our community safer, friendlier, and aware of problems bringing discomfort and sadness to our community and how to help our families deal with them.

Please feel free to share your talents as we plan a day of unity. We welcome your ideas on how to make this event a success!
