Strengthening Our Foundation
Celebrating the Success of the Chaplain Services Campaign
As we close the year, we are filled with gratitude for the incredible support of our Strengthening Our Foundation campaign. Thanks to the generosity of residents, families, friends, and team members, we raised $221,794, including more than $40,000 invested directly into vital Chaplain Services.
These funds have provided worship supplies, new hymnals, and essential Chaplain support at Dayspring Villa. Chaplain Services, integral to Christian Living Communities since its inception, ensure that residents, families, and team members feel loved, known, and supported in their spiritual journeys.
