    1. “Holiday” Iron-Style Chefs Competition
      2:00 PM – 4:00 PM

      A “Holiday” Iron-Style Chefs Competition Challenges Phoebe Residents,
      Cura Chefs with Secret Ingredient

      WHAT:   Residents of Phoebe Ministries’ senior living communities in Allentown, Richland, Berks and Wyncote, PA, will “don” their chef coats to compete side-by-side with Cura Hospitality chefs in the organization’s second annual “Holiday” themed “Chef Challenge” event!

      Based on the Food Network’s popular “Iron Chef” show, each team is required to prepare five servings of each food with one show plate per course in one hour (appetizer, main entrée and dessert) using a secret ingredient that will be announced several days prior to the competition.

      Resident sous chefs include Bob Gehris, 84, a resident at Phoebe Allentown Health Care Center.  Gehris can probably teach us a thing or two about the Chef Challenge!  He was the former host of The Mandarin Chef cooking show which aired on the former Twin County cable TV network.

      Hazel Pongracz, 94, lives at Phoebe Richland.  Mrs. Pongracz was proud to be part of a glorious era in Atlantic City, NJ, serving as back-up entertainment on the Steel Pier for stars like Red Skelton and Perry Como!

      An impressive panel of “celebrity” judges will award “The Culinary Flame” based on food taste, presentation and originality. They are:  Paul King, Editor, FoodService Director Magazine of New York City; Linda Jones, Editor, Advance for Long-Term Care Management Magazine of King of Prussia, PA; Scott Stevenson, President and CEO of Phoebe Ministries; Anita Dwyer, Vice President of Operations, Cura Hospitality; and Sara Heintzelman, who is 84 and lives at The Terrace at Phoebe Allentown.

      The winning team will recreate their meal on WFMZ’s Channel 69′s Sunrise Show on Friday, November 30th!

      “Through Cura’s LivingLife, we offer activities and food entertainment events that increase socialization, wellness and memory support among older adults.  Most importantly, these activities enhance life around great food,” said Cura Hospitality Founder and President Mitch Possinger.

      A “Holiday” Iron-Style Chefs Competition Challenges Phoebe Residents,
      Cura Chefs with Secret Ingredient

      ALLENTOWN, PA, November 3, 2012 – Residents of Phoebe Ministries’ senior living communities in Allentown, Richland, Berks and Wyncote, PA., will don their chef coats to compete side-by-side with Cura Hospitality chefs in the community’s second annual “Holiday” themed “Chef Challenge” event Monday, November 19, 2012, from 2 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. at the Phoebe Allentown Health Care Center.

      Based on the Food Network’s popular “Iron Chef” show, each team is required to prepare five servings of each food with one show plate per course in one hour (appetizer, main entrée and dessert) using a secret ingredient that will be announced several days prior to the competition.

      Resident participants will be permitted to bring one ingredient of their choice, while Cura chefs will provide pantry items including flour, sugar, spices, fresh herbs, produce, pork, poultry and beef.   Teams are judged based upon a 20-point system, with a maximum of 10 points given for taste, five for presentation, and five for originality.

      While cooking experience is not a prerequisite, some Chef Challenge residents have culinary expertise!

      Hazel Pongracz, 94, lives at Phoebe Richland.  Mrs. Pongracz was proud to be part of a glorious era in Atlantic City, NJ, serving as back-up entertainment on the Steel Pier for stars like Red Skelton and Perry Como!  Hazel also worked at Captain Starn’s Restaurant on the boardwalk, one of the most famous restaurants on the East Coast!

      An impressive panel of judges will award “The Culinary Flame” based on food taste, presentation and originality.  They are: Paul King, Editor, FoodService Director Magazine (New York City); Linda Jones, Editor, Advance for Long-Term Care Management Magazine (King of Prussia, PA); Scott Stevenson, President and CEO of Phoebe Ministries; Anita Dwyer, Vice President of Operations, Cura Hospitality; and Sara Heintzelman, who is 84 and lives at The Terrace at Phoebe Allentown.

      The Gospel Chapel Missions Committee has partnered with Lehigh Valley
      Business Group, a non-profit organization, for “Project Keep Warm.”  Many
      folks go to bed every night without a bed spread, or even a blanket.  With
      the generosity of our community, others can stay warm this winter.  The goal
      for this shared project is to collect upwards of 500 new or gently used
      blankets by end of 2012.  All blankets will be donated to various homeless
      shelters, family centers, and animal shelters throughout the Lehigh Valley
      and Pocono areas.  Blankets can be dropped off Monday, Tuesday, Thursday or
      Friday 9am-1pm,or before/after Sunday 10:30 service.  The Gospel Chapel is
      located at 2022 Main Street, Northampton, and can be reached at
      610-262-8101.
