Brethren Retirement Community

Today in Assisted Living, residents rolled up their sleeves and made homemade laundry detergent.

Everyone helped by adding ingredients, grating bars of soap, mixing everything together, and then portioning it out. For many, it was a brand-new experience, and it quickly turned into a fun, hands-on activity that brought everyone together.

The neighborhood ended up smelling extra fresh and clean, but the best part was the atmosphere—full of stories, smiles, and plenty of laughter. At least one perfectly timed joke made the rounds: “This is a GRATE time,” as the soap was being grated.

Simple activity, big fun, and great company all around.

There’s just something special about early mornings at BRC

Care Partner Zelda captured a few quiet moments around campus as the day was just beginning—and wow, the beauty speaks for itself. From soft sunlight to peaceful corners of nature, it’s a reminder of how blessed we are to call this place home.

Thank you, Zelda, for sharing your eye (and heart) for the little moments that make BRC so special

The Easter Bunny made one more special stop at BRC before hopping home for the season. Moments like these bring so many smiles to our residents and care partners, and that’s what it’s all about.

Faith is what brings us nearer to God.
Every day is a blessing.
It’s all because Christ our Savior lives
that each day is full of hope

The frogs are back!

Resident Dave Fine snapped these photos around campus and was pretty excited to see these little guys making their return after the long winter.

That can only mean one thing… spring is creeping in

We’ve been feeling the Easter joy around campus thanks to some very special artists.

A big thank you to the Bradford Schools 6th Grade Computer Apps class for creating and sending such thoughtful Easter pictures for our residents to enjoy. Your creativity and kindness brought plenty of smiles and brightened a lot of days.

We appreciate you thinking of us and sharing your talents in such a meaningful way.

The Easter Bunny made an early stop at BRC!

Residents enjoyed a sweet surprise visit filled with smiles, laughter, and a little extra springtime joy. We’re pretty sure the Bunny had just as much fun as everyone else!

Senior Fit Instructor Drew Lovern led our Live & Learn presentation on Laughter, Humor, and Good Health—and the fun started the moment he arrived (yes… in a wheelchair!).

From beginning to end, it was filled with laughter, connection, and a great reminder that joy really is good for the soul.

Thank you, Drew, for such a fun and meaningful time!
