We are so happy to see our Emily Kosack featured on CTV National News!

Emily is a beautiful example of "silent volunteering." For 34 years, she never sought the spotlight or recognition; she simply found her happiness in helping others. We are thrilled the world finally gets to see the smile that has warmed our home for over three decades. She is truly an inspiration for people across Canada!

Check out the beautiful coverage by Alex Karpa on CTV National News.

Way to go, Emily! Manitoba is so proud of you.

Palm Sunday 🌿

With only a few days until Easter, our Auxiliary helped us celebrate Palm Sunday in a very special way. Residents received p***y willows and palm leaves today, marking the start of a meaningful week ahead.
​
There is a beautiful sense of peace that comes with the tradition of sharing p***y willows and palm leaves—symbols of hope and the arrival of Spring.

A huge thank you to our Auxiliary for their thoughtfulness and for making today so special for everyone here. Seeing the smiles during the visits reminds us of the strength of our community and the importance of these seasonal milestones.
