Hair Stylist Made Our World More Beautiful

Karen with some of her lovely customers

It was hard for me to get use to a new hair dresser when I first moved here, but she ended up being better than the one I had. – Bertha Dungey

For 11 years, Karen Finkbeiner has faithfully entered our hair salon, warmed up the water and the hair curlers, and performed magic on residents of Community Village. We’re sad to say goodbye as Karen retires, but are grateful for the beauty she’s added to our lives for so long.

Blessed are the hairstylists, for they bring out the beauty in others. – Anonymous

Note: if you know a licensed hair stylist interested in providing regular services for paying customers at Community Village, please contact Becky, our administrator, today.

Sister, She’ll Pray

The Sisters of St. Clare of Saginaw, a community of catholic women also known as Poor Clare Nuns, follow the example of St. Clare of Assisi by sharing the Gospel of Jesus Christ and fervently praying with and for the many hurting people in our community.

Sister Laurene
A few years ago two of these sisters, Hilda Reining and Laurene Burns, moved into Community Village Assisted Living. Every day you could find them diligently rolling silverware for the dietary department. Residents and staff were naturally drawn to visit with the sisters while they worked and soon they built such meaningful relationships with so many. We were pleased to celebrate Sister Hilda’s ninety-nine years only shortly before she went to be with the Lord.


Faith In Action

Just recently we got to celebrate Sister Laurene’s 91st birthday. Ever faithful, she continues to serve in her calling and to exude the love of God in her compassion toward the lonely and brokenhearted. We all benefit from her counsel, her humor is contagious, and her wisdom is well needed. Patient, kind, understanding – she lives such a good example to us all. While she crochets prayer shawls for those who are sick, she prays for them – never running out of people for whom she can pray.

In support of our ministry to aging seniors and because she values each of our employees and volunteers, Sister Laurene often attends our fundraisers. The large circle of friends she’s developed over the years will come visiting on a regular basis and usually join her for our Family Fun Night held once a month – always a great time for residents and their families to enjoy quality time together with a fun activity.

Perhaps what’s most admirable about Sister Laurene is that she listens quietly to the problem at hand, contemplates all that she hears, and when she finally speaks, she gives “sought after God” advise, always giving God the glory and never taking so much as a compliment. A divine talent, Sister Laurene convinces people that everything has to do with love… for God is love. Thank you, Sister, for teaching us!

Carol of the Bells

What a delight it was today when our very own bell choir hit the road for their debut at a local assisting living. Dressed in reds and topped with plush Santa hats, they didn’t miss a beat. One resident staff commented: THIS is Christmas! A feel-good moment for everyone involved!
