Hi Ethan,
Welcome!
The correct way is to use the Pull Service. I'm sorry that it isn't better
documented on the website, but it is pretty well documented in the Javadoc.
org.apache.turbine.services.pull
You can also create your own Page level objects that would then be
per-request instead of app-context by simply defining your own Page class
and telling the TR.props file to use that one instead...@see:
