🌿 Celebrating Pastoral Care Week 🌿
This week, we join others across the nation in celebrating Pastoral Care Week, a time to recognize the compassionate and dedicated work of our chaplains at Valley Senior Living. 💚
Since the very first Pastoral Care Week in October 1985, this annual celebration has honored those who provide spiritual support, comfort, and guidance in times of joy, challenge, and reflection.
At Valley Senior Living, pastoral and chaplain care has been an essential part of the care we have provided for over 100 years. Our chaplains walk alongside residents, families, and team members, offering a listening ear, a prayer, or simply a presence that brings peace and hope.
This week, we give special thanks to our chaplains and all who share in this sacred work. We are honored by our deep roots in providing compassionate Christian care here at Valley Senior Living, a legacy of faith and service that dates back more than a century.
