Qvarnström was reviewed and approved * by the following: B.

Lipski Edwin Erle Sparks Professor of Spanish & Linguistics *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School. ii ABSTRACT Most literature on the maintenance and shift of Pennsylvania German among the Old Order Amish (hereafter often referred to as PG and OOA) suggests that PG among this conservative group of Amish will in the future still be maintained much as it has in the past. Some scholars, however, argue that a shift to English is possible in the future. The researcher of this this study proposes that too little attention has been paid to the societal changes that may influence the PG spoken by the OOA in Lancaster County and suggests that the linguistic situation is not so stable as has generally been assumed. For that reason, this sociolinguistic study was aimed at exploring language use and attitudes among the OOA in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania.

    Dear Church Family, As the Advent Season Is Upon Us, Let Us Remember the Words to the Old Carol

    Dec em ber 2012 www.centralschwenkfelder.com Phone: (610) 584 -4480 Dear Church Family, As the Advent season is upon us, let us remember the words to the old carol: “Yea, Lord, we greet Thee, born this happy morning, Jesus, to Thee be all glory giv’n; Word of the Father, now in flesh appearing! O come, let us adore Him, O come, let us adore Him, O come let us adore Him, Christ the Lord!” This must have been on the hymn writer’s mind, a reflection of John 1:14: “The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the One and Only, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth.” May you and yours have a blessed Christmas, being reminded of all of the riches we have in Christ, our Lord. From All of Us, … General Conference Minutes 1782 – 1890 Around 1890 Dr. O.S. Kriebel, Howard W. Kriebel, and S. Agnes Schultz undertook the project to copy into a single volume all of the minutes of meetings that we today would call General Conferences of The Schwenkfelder Church. The hand written minutes of these meetings were kept in manuscript volumes. The Upper and Lower Districts each had a secretary who recorded the minutes when the meeting was held in his district. It appears that he then sent a copy to the secretary of the other district. It seems that after some 100 years of keeping these important church records that they may not have been in the best shape; perhaps there were no longer two complete sets—and so the project was born.

    ABSTRACT Title of Document: CURRENT TRENDS OF DIALECT PRESERVATION THROUGH MUSICAL PERFORMANCE IN THE PENNSYLVANIA GERMAN COMMUNITY OF SOUTHEASTERN PENNSYLVANIA Chantel Lynn Yadush, Master of Arts, 2008 Directed By: Dr. Jonathan Dueck, School of Music Division of Musicology and Ethnomusicology The purpose of this thesis is to examine who the Pennsylvania Dutch people are in light of American immigration history, interviews with Pennsylvania Dutch community leaders and scholars, performance observations, and printed text resources in order to evaluate how members of the Pennsylvania German community are actively promoting and preserving the Pennsylvania German dialect through the medium of performance. There is a general consensus among people familiar with the Pennsylvania Dutch culture that the Pennsylvania Dutch language is disappearing. Within the past 100 years cultural centers and educational institutions have been established to encourage and support preservation of the Pennsylvania Dutch language in Southeastern Pennsylvania. This study explores how and why musical performances within the community are fueled by a revivalist mentality to preserve the Pennsylvania Dutch language.

    OCTO BER 2017 www.cscfamily.org Phone: (610) 584-4480 Dear Church Family, Many of us appreciate special occasions, dates upon which we celebrate an event in history. October 31st will mark the 500th year of the Protestant Reformation. It is on this date that Martin Luther took matters into his own hands and called the church back to the Bible. Luther listed 95 areas where the Catholic Church had departed from Biblical orthodoxy. By nailing these items in written form on the church doors at Wittenberg, he began a movement that continues today. Protestants make up about 37% of Christians, about 11% of the world’s population, a number that is over 800 million.1 To be Protestant in the classic sense, is to have a high regard for the Bible as God’s written word. Sola Scriptura is the belief that the Bible alone is the authority for our faith. Luther’s testimony at the Diet of Worms in 1521 stated: Unless I am overcome with testimonies from Scripture or with evident reasons- for I believe neither the Pope nor the Councils, since they have often erred and contradicted one another; I am overcome by the Scripture texts which I have adduced, and my conscience is bound by God’s Word.2 This was in the context of the church of Rome which affirmed that religious authority came from Scripture and church tradition. What popes and councils had decided in the past, defined what the Roman Church would teach. Against the background of human authority, the Reformers taught that the Bible was divine authority.
