Here’s our four-legged volunteer, Joey, trying out a new volunteer role during his visit.
With his awesome owner Mary beside him and Programming Director Karen helping keep things running smoothly, he looked right at home. Joey seemed to like the front desk.

Joey has been a valuable visitor to our residents this past year, offering comfort and companionship every other Friday. Animal-assisted visits are such a wonderful part of life here at Morning Light, brightening days in ways big and small.

And while Joey might not be taking phone calls anytime soon, our reception volunteers truly are also the heartbeat of our home — offering warm welcomes and steady support to everyone who comes through our doors.

If you’d like to volunteer, we’d love to meet you!

Morning Light’s Legacy Event: A Gathering of Remembrance.💛🕯️ This week, our community came together for a truly beautiful and heartfelt evening. Our annual, nondenominational memorial brick dedication was lovingly led by Nathan McDade from our friends at Workforce Chaplains.

During the gathering, Kate Nickelson, Morning Light’s Social Services Manager, read For the Fallen a poem by Laurence Binyon. Which she reread here for the video of the event. Karen Adan, our Director of Programming, then read aloud the names of the 35 individuals Morning Light has lovingly homed through their final journey this past year.

Families, friends, and supporters joined us for a moment of reflection and connection, gathering indoors to light candles and then moved outdoors to our Memorial Pyramids, where over a thousand names are engraved. This year, we dedicated 35 new engraved bricks in honor of those we have served.

It was deeply touching to welcome back so many family members and loved ones.
Each light lit, each name spoken, and each brick engraved stands as a reminder that at Morning Light, we hold the memory of those we care for just as dearly as we did during their time in our home.

Today we honor Veterans Day. 🇺🇸

Throughout the years and decades, Morning Light has been privileged to care for many veterans during their final days. It is always a profound honor when those who have served our country call the Morning Light Home their home.

Pictured here is dear friend Ruthann Harp, wife of former resident Dan Harp, alongside her family at Crown Hill Cemetery. She is receiving the flag of remembrance for Dan’s service in the U.S. Army during the Cold War.

We extend our heartfelt thanks to the Harp family for allowing us to share this photo and we pause today to remember and honor all of our veteran residents from every branch of service.

Just a reminder that this coming Wednesday, you’re invited to Morning Light’s Legacy Event: A Gathering of Remembrance. This is a special nondenominational memorial service honoring those we’ve cared for this past year, and all whose memory continues to shine in our hearts. 💛🕯️

Families, friends, and supporters are invited to join us for a moment of reflection and community. Together, we’ll gather both inside for refreshments and outside by our Memorial Pyramids, where the names of every soul we have served are engraved. This evening, we will dedicate another 35 engraved bricks to honor those we have served over the past year. Each symbolizes that at Morning Light, we strive to care for the memory of those we serve just as deeply as we cared for them while they were residents of our home.

“There are no goodbyes for us. Wherever you are, you will always be in my heart.”
— Mahatma Gandhi

This Sunday, we reflect that the Entryway Lantern has been lit through this week at the Morning Light Home.
It is our tradition to keep it shining whenever one or more of our dear residents is transitioning.

Please help us welcome Morning Light’s newest residents! 🐔💛
Animal therapy and connection with nature have long been shown to bring comfort, especially in end-of-life care.

Thanks to our wonderful friend Michele, Morning Light gained nine feathered residents this week! These beautiful, friendly hens now call our garden home, living in their own cozy custom built henhouse.

For our more mobile residents, caring for and spending time with the chickens will be a gentle and meaningful part of daily life should they wish to — a chance to nurture, connect, and smile.

We’re so excited to welcome our new feathered friends to the Morning Light family! Thank you, Michele! 🐓🌿

Fall has arrived in all its glory at the Morning Light Home. The season reminds us to slow down and reflect, on the changes in nature, the passing time in our greater lives, and the beauty of each day we’re given. That rhythm of life is something deeply rooted within our mission at Morning Light and those we serve.

Our home and grounds are designed to offer peace and connection, gently interwoven with the natural world. Nestled just off 52nd Street and Keystone, it sometimes feels like a little world of its own and today the colors of fall remind us to be thankful for the days we have and the beauty in every single moment.

We were so grateful to have recently welcomed seniors from Franklin Central High School’s Jobs for America’s Graduates (JAG) program for their Student Service Day with Shonda Yates, BSW, who runs the program. Morning Light Hospitality Coordinator Kylee gave them a tour of the house as they learned about end-of-life care.

They also crafted Swiftie-style friendship bracelets to give to each of our residents.

During their visit, they met 105-year-old resident Ruby. She shared some timeless advice: “Always be who you are and don’t try to be anyone else.”

These students were respectful, attentive, and kind — a true credit to the future of Indianapolis and beyond. Thank you, Franklin Central JAG students, for thinking of us and your neighbors in need. 🫶🏡

We were so glad to welcome Karly Hale, a music therapist with our hospice partner Anew Care, back to the Morning Light Home. Karly provides music therapy for some of our residents several times each month and her sessions never fail to bring comfort.

Music therapy is a powerful part of end-of-life care, helping our residents find peace, express emotion, and recall meaningful memories. 💛🏡💙

It’s always great to see Bill again!
Every Friday, Bill stops by to sit with our residents, a friend and a listening ear. These visits mean so much to those who truly need friendship and companionship. They remind us that sometimes the greatest gift we can offer is simply our time.

Whatever your experience or background, we’d love to have you come by for a tour and join our volunteer base. These visits make a huge difference to individuals who might otherwise be alone.

Or maybe you’d like to help in other ways — by joining our card-making club, helping with the grounds, or lending a hand at events. However you can, we’d love to hear from you.

Did you know two of our incredible caregivers are sisters? 💛 Vivian and Juana bring double the heart, double the care, and double the love to the Morning Light Home! Together with our team, they provide 24/7 support — rain or shine — for some of our most in-need neighbors. It takes a special kind of person to dedicate their lives to helping others, especially in end-of-life care. Thanks Vivian and Juana for all you do everyday at the Morning Light Home.
