This past weekend, around the world people gathered to celebrate the mystery of resurrection, a promise of light in darkness and new life that rises out of death. While Easter marks this promise in a formal way, at Bethany we experience and contribute to how this happens in people’s lives every day.
In your compassionate care, you shape how our residents experience life. You honour them and help them heal from the losses they experience with aging. You bring light to their darkness and give them meaning to fill their days. This can be challenging work, and yet done with good intention and skill, can be truly transformative for the residents in our care and the loved ones who support them.
As you care for our residents, it is my hope that you also experience the promise of new life in your own lives. May your spirits be lifted when weighed down and your deep hopes realized. May you be filled with encouragement, sharing your passion and gifts with the world so that others would be buoyed by your presence.
Blessings,
– Daranne
