As the New Year approaches, we want to reflect on the incredible journey we’ve had in 2023. Thanks to our staff, generous donors, residents and their families, this year has been a remarkable one.
These highlights from this past year exhibit our mission to foster fullness of life for older adults in the spirit of Christ’s love.
