Volunteers forsake Yule to feed Lorain's needy
About three dozen volunteers joined Eddie Edwards of E E Transport to serve a Christmas dinner for 75 to 80 homeless and poor at Mt Zion Baptist Church Lorain. Buses from the Lorain County Community Action Agency ferried attendees from Lorain and Elyria for two noon sessions funded by a Nordson Foundation grant. Edwards plans to make the dinner an annual event with future church partners to host belated meals for those not reached on Christmas.

Firelands South Amherst merger Talks Focus on Name
Firelands superintendent Darrell Phillips seeks a special school board meeting with South Amherst to salvage the merger after December resolutions backed district transfer. The disputed point is the new district name, with Firelands favoring its own, while South Amherst proposes Firelands-South Amherst. Residents have until Jan 15 to file a merger referendum for the May ballot. Also a separate Elyria report notes 1500 Lottery tickets stolen in a break in at Lake Avenue Dairy Mart.
