In honor of Intergenerational Week and Superhero Day, something special unfolded at Perry Lutheran Homes.

Alongside our Acorns & Oaks preschoolers, we celebrated our “Marvelous April” theme with a hands-on activity full of purpose. The children named their superpowers—Helping, Kindness, or Friendship—and then teamed up with residents to create marble run paintings together.

But the real masterpiece wasn’t just the artwork.

It was the conversations, the encouragement, and the genuine connection that formed as little hands guided and supported older ones. Each piece turned out beautifully unique—just like the relationships being built across generations.

This is what it looks like when love, creativity, and community come together.

Micah 6:8

He has told you, O man, what is good; and what does the Lord require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God?

Dear Heavenly Father:

This is another day that you give us as a gift to use, however we want. To use it for our good only is to limit its potential. To dedicate it to serving You heaps glory upon you and blesses both those we encounter in love and ourselves. Give us sure direction and appropriate speed as we move through the day to wring out faith’s possibilities. In Jesus and His cross, we have everything ahead! Thanks be to God! Amen.

Jeremiah 10:23

I know, O Lord, that the way of man is not in himself,
that it is not in man who walks to direct his steps.

Dear Heavenly Father:

Hear my prayer for guidance today. You, O Lord, are the great director. You see troubled hearts and send help, just as You measured our hopelessness and sent Your Son. Steer me into situations that require my Godly best and result in blessings for those sharing the moment. Hear my prayer for guidance today. Amen!

Psalm 95:4-6

In his hand are the deep places of the earth, and the mountain peaks are his.
The sea is his. He made it, and his hands formed the dry land.
Come, let’s worship and bow down. Let’s kneel in front of the Lord, our maker
Dear Heavenly Father:

In all of history, you have been praised as the Creator of all things visible and invisible. Still, we often lose sight of the author for His works. Other times we seek proof that you still reign over all that you have made, especially when hopelessness invades our consciousness. Guide us into all faith, so that we may not question or worry about your great work and power to inject hope into our days, and heaven into our thinking. In Christ and His cross of salvation, we have strength through faith! Amen.

There’s something special about seeing the world through a child’s eyes.

To celebrate Global Intergenerational Week, residents from Spring Valley campus and preschoolers from Acorns & Oaks Christian Academy set out together to Blank Park Zoo for a day of exploring and discovery. From wide-eyed wonder at the animals to shared smiles along the paths, it was a beautiful reminder that joy grows when generations come together.

For many, going to a movie is a simple outing. For our residents, it’s something truly special.

With the help of many caring hands, residents recently enjoyed a trip to the Perry Grand 3 Theatres to see Song Sung Blue. The theater quickly filled with singing, swaying, laughter, and a few heartfelt tears as the story of music and memories came to life.

It takes a village to make moments like this possible, and we are so grateful for our team that makes it happen.

A special thank you to the Perry Grand 3 Theaters for graciously accommodating our amazing residents and helping create such a meaningful experience.

Psalm 19:1-2

The heavens declare the glory of God,
and the sky above proclaims his handiwork.
Day to day pours out speech,
and night to night reveals knowledge.

Dear Heavenly Father:

You speak to us through your Holy Word, which echoes your majesty through mountain ranges, seabed, solar systems, and nature’s seasons. By the various conditions you use to bring health to our planet, you remind us of your everlasting care for us, each and every one precious in your mind and heart. Your Son, our Lord, Jesus died and rose so that we might have forgiveness of sins and be brought into life together with you forever. Direct our minds to see your majesty in the small as well as the great. Amen!

More than 50 hearts gathered to celebrate something truly special… our volunteers. ♥

At our Volunteer Appreciation Celebration, we gave thanks for the many faithful volunteers who bring joy, connection, and Christ’s love into the lives of our residents each day. While not everyone could be there, this celebration was for all who serve.

We were honored to recognize two incredible individuals for going above and beyond in their volunteer efforts:
• Caroline Bouvette, our Faithful Servant, known for her compassionate heart, quick wit, and a little ornery spirit that brings smiles to so many.
• Luke Rowe, our Rising Servant, whose big heart and wisdom beyond his years make a lasting impact on residents.

We are so grateful for each and every volunteer who helps carry forward our mission!

If you or someone you know would like a meaningful way to give back, we’d love to help you find just the right opportunity to fit your gifts, your schedule, and your heart. You might be surprised how much it gives back to you, too. Just email us at info@perrylutheranhomes.org and we'll be in touch!

Creative expression matters at every age. And our St. James neighborhood residents have been busy creating in beautiful, meaningful ways.

Creative expression can:
• Support brain health
• Give a voice when words are hard
• Reduce anxiety
• Build confidence
• Spark joy and connection

It’s not about the final product, it’s about the joy along the way.

Ephesians 3:20-21

Now to him who is able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think, according to the power at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, forever and ever. Amen.

Dear Heavenly Father:

Your love is beyond measure, your grace overflowing. We do not measure up to being worthy of your kindness, yet your mercy is infinite and you gladly give Yourself to fill us with Your goodness. Thanks for giving us Your abundance of forgiveness and eternal life, and all through Jesus Christ, Your Son, our Lord. With your Holy Spirit, help us measure up to loving You and others today. In Jesus, Amen!
