Our residents at The Cottage enjoyed a heartwarming activity this week selecting their very own stuffed animal companions and giving them each a special name.

The residents used their creativity to name their new cuddly friends. Activities like this spark joy, encourage storytelling, and create meaningful moments that brighten everyone’s day.

Our residents welcomed back some familiar faces this week! Former Ecumen Detroit Lakes chaplain Peter, along with his wife Jillene and their son Grant, returned for a special visit.

Peter and Jillene shared a thoughtful sermon, reminding us of the comfort and connection found within spiritual community, while Grant delighted everyone with beautiful piano music.

Peter now serves as Ecumen’s Director of Spiritual Care for all our communities, and it was wonderful to reconnect and celebrate the meaningful impact he continues to make across Ecumen.

Thank you, Peter, Jillene, and Grant, for sharing your time and talents with us!

We enjoyed the holiday season this year with our Holiday Bash, Secret Santa gifts delivered to our residents, and listening to The Night Before Christmas and ’Twas the Morning of Christmas stories read to our residents by a couple of our wonderful staff members, Charlie and Tina.

We can’t forget enjoying some wonderful lefse made by some of our amazing dining staff for our residents. We were so busy having fun that we are just getting to them! It was a wonderful holiday season here at Ecumen Detroit Lakes.
