It was an honor to recognize and present a certificate to the dedicated men and women of the Fayetteville Volunteer Fire Department during EMS Week.
Every day, our EMS professionals, firefighters, paramedics, EMTs, and first responders stand ready to answer the call, often running toward danger when others are running away. Their courage, professionalism, compassion, and sacrifice save lives and strengthen our communities.
During EMS Week, we especially recognize the extraordinary service these heroes provide across Fayetteville and throughout our Commonwealth.
Thank you to the Fayetteville Volunteer Fire Department for your unwavering commitment to protecting and serving our community. Pennsylvania is stronger and safer because of you.

Mission of Mercy Mobile Medical & Dental is making a difference every day by bringing free medical and dental care directly to underserved communities - including our Veterans who may not have access to the care they deserve.
From dental cleanings, fillings, and extractions to primary medical care, prescriptions, and health services, Mission of Mercy helps restore health, confidence, and hope to those in need.
These life-changing clinics are made possible by dedicated volunteers who give their time and talents to serve others.
We have a host site for our mobile clinics right here in Adams County at the The Gettysburg Four Square Church. Hospitals in these service areas provide free lab work and x-rays for our patients.
