Snow is here—and so is Advent, said Rev. Scott Cartwright, Benedictine director of spiritual care, as he reflected on the season of Advent. Just as Minnesota snow is inevitable, so is the season of Advent, a time to embrace hope, peace, joy, and love. From Nov. 30 to Dec. 24, Christians reflect on Jesus’ coming and look forward with anticipation to his return. At Benedictine, we live these themes daily—through hopeful waiting, courageous peace-making, resilient joy, and self-giving love.
🌟 Have hope. Embrace peace. Live joy. Share love. 🌟

Navigating veterans’ Aid and Attendance benefits can be overwhelming, but it doesn’t have to be. Thanks to our partnership with Patriot Angels, Benedictine Benedictine Living Community-Shakopee Windermere Way can help veterans and their spouses get the benefits they deserve.

This collaboration brings peace of mind by connecting residents with trusted legal advisors. The result? Quicker access to financial assistance and more time to focus on what matters — living fully and living well.

We’re proud to stand beside those who stood for us.
