Teamwork in action at the Morning Light Home. Our newest caregiver Dominique learning the ropes from one of Morning Light’s very best, Jorge. From the little things to the big moments, the knowledge and compassion that make this home so special are passed from one team member to another every day.

It takes a village to create the warm, loving environment our residents deserve, and we’re so grateful for caregivers like Jorge and Dominique, and their career journey as part of the Morning Light family.

Last week we shared that a major project was underway at the Morning Light Home, replacing all of the windows after more than twenty years of Indiana winters and summers.

The work began earlier this week, and despite Indiana’s ever-temperamental spring weather, more than 50 windows were replaced with minimal disruption to the home and our residents. Yesterday the project was completed.

The new windows will make the home more energy efficient, safer, and more comfortable for the residents who live here. Just as importantly, they make it easier for residents to enjoy the sunshine, the garden, and the changing seasons outside.

It’s all part of our commitment to ensuring that this house remains a safe and welcoming home for those who need us for many years to come.

You’ll also be glad to hear the bird feeders are back up and in place!

Here are a few photos from the work as it happened.

Morning Light’s Executive Director Madison Wood-Gonzalez recently joined the Elevate Podcast from Hospice News to share the story behind Morning Light and the growing need for compassionate end-of-life care.

In the conversation, Madison speaks about the mission that drives our work, providing free hospice housing and care for individuals who have nowhere else to turn at the end of life. It’s an opportunity to shine a light on the power of community, dignity, and the belief that everyone deserves to feel at home in their final chapter.

Thank you to the team at Hospice News for helping spread the word about Morning Light’s work here in Indianapolis and beyond.

Morning light’s wonderful volunteer Libby took Mrs Patricia out yesterday for a little stroll and some fresh air around the grounds. We may not have much spring color just yet, but Mrs Patricia more than made up for it with her bright yellow socks.

At Morning Light, moments like this matter deeply. Our mission is to provide a safe, loving home where residents can continue to enjoy the simple pleasures of life that we too often take for granted, like friendship and fresh air.

Today is National Awesomeness Day, and we couldn’t let it pass without celebrating the truly awesome people at the heart of the Morning Light Home: our caregivers.

Day and night, they bring compassion, patience, and care into this house, whether it’s sharing meals, listening to stories, or simply being present in the day-to-day work of a free end-of-life home like ours.

Here’s caregiver Eric this morning, sharing a moment at breakfast with Ginni, Jorge, and William.

Thank you for the compassion and heart our caregivers bring to Morning Light. You truly are awesome.

Doug has a wonderful passion for creating miniature gardens and tiny villages. Each little house, path, and tree becomes part of a small world he carefully brings to life.

At the Morning Light Home, we encourage our residents to continue embracing the passions and interests that make them who they are. Whether those passions are big or small.

Miss Patricia spent some lovely time today with our wonderful volunteer Bill. Moments like these, a chat, a laugh, simple companionship, are at the heart of life at the Morning Light Home.

Our volunteers help make this house feel like a true home for the residents who live here, offering friendship, kindness, and the gift of their time.

If you’d like to volunteer, whether through bedside companionship, helping at events, or lending a hand at the front desk, you can choose the hours and opportunities that work best for you.

March is Social Work Month, and we are proud to celebrate Morning Light’s Social Services Manager, Kate.

Kate is often the first guiding hand for individuals coming to the Morning Light Home. She walks alongside our residents and their families through every step of the journey, coordinating with hospice partners, offering support, and ensuring that each person who comes through our doors is welcomed with compassion and dignity.

Thank you, Kate, for the kindness and dedication you bring to the Morning Light community.

Another big project is underway at the Morning Light Home. After twenty-two years of winters and summers, we’re aiming to replace all of our windows to help make the Morning Light Home more energy efficient and to ensure safe access to the outside for our residents when needed.

It’s part of our commitment to ensuring this house remains both accessible and comfortable for another twenty years.

The team from Pella Windows and New Suburban Installation were welcome visitors to the home as they met with Drew, our Building Operations Manager, and Brittany, our Director of Finance and Development, to begin planning the project to be completed by the end of March.

Over the weekend, Emily Longnecker of Channel 13 WTHR visited the Morning Light Home to spend time with our dear resident Ginni. As part of our Making Memories program, we try to create meaningful moments for the residents who call Morning Light home while on hospice.

Ginni has always loved politics and spent her entire career working at the Statehouse. She spoke so highly of Emily’s reporting and was clearly a big fan, so we reached out and without hesitation, Emily offered to stop by on her day off. She arrived with roses for Ginni and food for the beloved birds who gather at her window feeder each day.

As it turns out, they are both originally from eastern Pennsylvania and quickly discovered they share much in common. Their time together was gentle, joyful, and deeply meaningful moment in Ginni’s journey and it seems a friendship was made.

Ginni and all of us at Morning Light were truly touched by Emily’s kindness and generous heart. 💛

Doug helping care for the chickens this morning, just as he has all Winter.🐔💛

Nine hens now call the Morning Light Home their home. They lay fresh eggs and have become gentle companions to many of our more mobile residents.

Doug has been a resident with us since the fall and remains a deeply active part of life here. While the average stay at Morning Light is around six weeks, it can range from just a few days to years, depending on each person’s health and journey. Our philosophy is simple: the longer someone can truly call Morning Light home, the better. It’s about friendship, connection, belonging, and peace through their terminal illness.

Doug embodies that spirit. He runs bingo, has built deep friendships across the home, and shares a special bond with our feathered residents. Here he is keeping them fed in their coop and backyard run, and a pic from when the snow was a foot deep. The Morning Light Chicks are always happy to see Doug, and like all of us, they seem glad that winter is loosening its grip and spring is in sight. 🌱💙🏡

A few days ago, we shared a warm welcome to William, one of our newest residents here at the Morning Light Home. As part of our Making Memories program, where we help bring last wishes to life, we shared that William is a lifelong jazz lover and musician, and that we hoped to surround him with the music he loves.

Thanks to so many amazing people in our community who saw that post, something beautiful has already begun to unfold. 💛

We are deeply grateful to everyone who has reached out, offered ideas, or shared connections, your kindness and willingness to help make this moment possible mean more than we can say!

Special thanks to William’s new friend Joseph Haskins Jr, who stopped by to visit and begin shaping what we hope will be a very special live jazz performance just for him. Jazz Kitchen Joseph L Haskins Jr
