COMMUNITY Updates

March 6, 2025

Dear Friends and Family of Light of Hearts Villa,

The arrival of March fills our hearts with joy! With warmer weather on the docket this week, we are feeling energized and excited for the arrival of spring and, of course, the Lenten season we are in.

Miguel Chavez, the Sr. Vice President of Mission and Ministry with the Sisters of Charity Health System, recently shared a beautiful reflection on Lent that deeply resonated with many of us.

Lent is a time to turn our hearts toward God, seeking renewal, reconciliation, and a deeper relationship with Jesus Christ. It is a season of reflection, prayer, and acts of kindness as we prepare for the joy of Easter. The ashes we receive on Ash Wednesday remind us of our humility and our hope in the promise of new life through Christ. As we journey through this sacred season, we encourage all to embrace the spirit of giving, love, and renewal in their daily lives.

We also invite you to join us for a special Easter celebration! On Saturday, April 19 at 2 PM, we will host a family Easter Egg Hunt here at Light of Hearts Villa. We encourage all family members and friends to bring their little ones for an afternoon of fun, faith, and connection. There will be an egg hunt, arts & crafts celebrating Jesus’ resurrection, a visit from the Easter Bunny, and more! Your presence will make our residents’ Easter weekend even brighter, and we would love to see you there. No RSVP required, learn more here >

In addition, we will be hosting a St. Patrick’s Day Karaoke here at the Villa on Monday, March 17 at 1:30 PM. Families and friends are welcome to join their loved ones for this festive event!

General Updates

We are grateful to share that we remain COVID-free, though we have seen a few cases of influenza. As always, we encourage anyone feeling unwell to stay home and to wear a mask as a precaution if needed. With spring around the corner, we are hopeful that we will continue to stay healthy in the months ahead.

Lastly, if you haven’t already, be sure to check out our 2024 Impact Report, available digitally or in print at our front lobby during your next visit. Your continued support fuels our mission and enriches the lives of our residents.

Here’s to a vibrant April and the adventures that await us!

With thanks and love,
