Mabel has celebrated her 104th birthday! Mabel's 104 years is more than a mere number, it is a rich tapestry of wisdom, resilience, giving, and a life filled with many treasured stories. We love hearing about your bread making, 14 loaves per time...and the raising of your family..and how your mother, Medora, loved to plant pansies by the farmhouse.

Mabel has seen the world change in unimaginable ways and she carried herself thru all these changes with grace and engaged interest. Mabel read about all the local and world changes via the newspaper. Mabel is a former teacher and a fine supporter of reading....she still likes to read the newspaper. When Mabel read this headline "Government Shutdown" she immediately said "what is wrong with those people?"

Mabel Happy Birthday from your MBH neighborhood and staff. A 104 and your are still radiating warmth, love and the energy to press on. Your are a treasure to your family and all of us at MBH. The richest blessings to you this day and always.

Mabel spent her day with her family and they joined her in playing bingo...that had her smiling.

🏡April is National County Government Month. We invited Stanley's Mayor, Marlin Ranum, to highlight the vital roles and services the county government provides, such as public health, infrastructure, and safety. Mayor Ranum spoke about the city workforce and the wonderful job they do in keeping Stanley looking nice and safe. We are blessed to have a wonderful law enforcement in Mountrail County.

🏡Ranum discussed the progress that will be made on resurfacing and repairing the streets in Stanley. He stated that there are always challenges ahead and mentioned concerns such as aging infrastructure, beautification of downtown, and tax values.

🏡Ranum was quick to point out the many wonderful aspects that the city of Stanley has to offer, such as the recently completed beautiful outdoor pool, the Mountrail Bethel Home and the entire medical facility, the park, and the blessing of the Sybil Center for the Arts.

🏡Part of the program was dedicated to remembering what downtown Stanley looked liked when the highway came right thru downtown. Residents had fun recalling Carl's Cafe, Hattie's Dress Shop, Anderson Clothing, Reeps, The Two Way, Art's Barber Shop, Perry's Grocery, Prairie Traders, Patten's Post, Wally's Standard Station, Pelkey's, Snookers, The Stanley Hotel, My Lady's Dress Shop, and many more.
Thank you, Mayor Ranum, for bringing our residents update on the latest in Stanley and for take time to step back in time on Main Street and recall many businesses.

🐾Our residents enjoy having visitors and they especially enjoy a visit from four legged pals like Brutus.
Brutus is 13 years old and enjoys coming to MBH to see Diana. Brutus also enjoyed seeing Dorothy, Leona and all residents.

🐾Diana looks forward to her family coming to visit and spending time just hanging out, however, she admits that Brutus is the only one who can sit on her lap.

🐾When family and pets come to see their loved ones at MBH it is a win in every aspect.

⭕️The students from North Prairie Home School Fellowship arrived last week with arms full and spirits high, as they brought brightly colored hula hoops with them. The hoops instantly sparked curiosity and smiles among the residents. They opened with a song and their visit quickly turned into a joyful exchange of energy, laughter, and connection.

⭕️The students demonstrated all the creative ways a single circle could come alive-hooping at their waist, jumping in and out, passing them to each other by limbs, and even transforming them into a makeshift basketball rims. The room was filled with movement and laughter as generations played side by side, cheering one another on.

⭕️As the hoops spun and soared, something deeper unfolded. The simple circle of the hula hoop became a powerful symbol. Just as the hoop had no beginning and no end, so too does the circle of friendship these students and mentors have formed over the past few months. This is a great example of how caring each week has followed naturally between young and old, each enriching the other.

⭕️As their visit came to an end, it circled back to the simple truth: being engaged with life matters at every age. No matter what changes come our way, life continues to spin forward. And when we have someone to share that journey with-someone to laugh with, move with, and care for-the circle becomes not only whole, but truly wonderful.

⭕️Thank you, students, Kris Hetzel and parents for circling around our residents with sincere kindness and care.

✝️ Recently, Pastor Mike Olson delivered a beautiful sermon centered around the doubling of Thomas the apostle.

✝️ The story of "Doubting Thomas" (John 20:24-31) tells of the apostle who refused to believe that Jesus had risen until he saw and touched Jesus's wounds. When Jesus appeared and offered this proof, Thomas declared "My Lord, and My God!" This account illustrates how personal skepticism can be transformed into deeper faith, with Jesus validation of Thomas' questions.

✝️ Pastor Mike focused on blessed are those who have not seen and reminding us that Jesus states those who believe without seeing (modern believers) are blessed, highlighting the role of faith over physical proof.

✝️ Another point that residents took away
was this .... that Jesus is patient with doubt and offers grace to those grabbing with belief.

✝️ This served included Holy Communion and the singing of the following hymns.

* How Great Thought Art
* Amazing Grace
* To God be the Glory
* Jesus Loves Me

Thank you, Pastor Mike!

🎹Jerry Schlag was here this week and entertained our residents with some fine accordion music.

🎶Hearing music has a powerful, transformative effect on our residents, acting as 'musical medicine' that improves physical, mental, and social well-being. Hearing certain songs can take them back to wonderful memories of dancing, early marriage, and even a favorite song. Songs very often connect us to certain time periods in our lives

🎹Here are just a few favorites that Jerry played and were well received.

*Blue Moon
*My Wild Irish Rose
*Four in the Morning
*On the Wings of a Dove
*Waltz of the Angels
*Happy Lovers Waltz

🎶Jerry and his wife, Laurel, enjoy visiting with our residents.

🎹Thank you, Jerry and Laurel for making the afternoon bright.

🎶Jerry will be back here performing on Tuesday, May 12 at 2 p.m.

🌷This past Wednesday afternoon was filled with laughter, color and connection as the Stanley Girl Scouts arrived to spend time crafting with the residents. Each girl eagerly partnered with a resident, genuinely interested in being here and excited the experience. From the very beginning, conversations flowed easily, and smiles were exchanged as new friendships formed across little fingers and experienced hands.

🌺The girls brought along butterfly-shaped cookies they had loving made, sharing these sweet treats with each resident.

🌷The activity celebrated the flowers of spring and summer and soon the tables were filled with bright colors. On one side of the craft was a tick tac toe board and the playing pieces were water cans and flowers. Too cute!

🌺As they worked, residents reminisced about their favorite flowers. Some fondly recalled the bright orange poppy, glowing like sunshine, while others spoke of daisies with crisp white petals and bright yellow centers.

🌷Pat had been a Girl Scout leader for nearly 30'years, she spoke about the experiences mentoring young girls. Her eyes were bright with pride as she watched these Girl Scouts continued the tradition and spirit of Girls Scouts.

🌺Thank you, to Miranda and Lacey, for being fine leaders and to the Girl Scouts who did a great job in connecting with our residents during this intergenerational activity. This craft time which connected hearts, hands and minds-reminded us all just how powerful and beautiful shared moments can be.
