Benedictine Living Community-Bismarck

02/04/2026

This week, Feb. 2–6, we celebrate Pride in Foodservice Week and the amazing culinary services staff who nourish our communities and elevate the dining experience. We’re grateful for all you do!

February is American Heart Month—a perfect time for adults, especially those 55 and older, to take charge of their heart health. Small, meaningful changes like moving more, eating nourishing foods, managing stress, and partnering with your health care provider can make a big difference. A healthier heart means more energy for the moments and people you love. ❤️

We are officially 9 days away from setting sail on our legendary “Beat the Winter Blues Cruise” aboard the Bismarck Benedictine Ship — and the excitement is OFF THE CHARTS!

Our Assisted Living residents are getting ready to pack their bags and cruise into a 9-day trip packed with fun-filled excursions, around-the-world tours, and mouthwatering international flavors. And of course… the main event no one wants to miss our glamorous three-course Captain’s Dinner where everyone gets dressed to the nines and brings the WOW factor!

So grab your sunglasses, practice your best “ahoy,” and get ready because this ship is about to SAIL into the most exciting days of the season! Watch our page for daily updates and for more surprises!

𝐏𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐭, 𝐋𝐚𝐮𝐠𝐡, 𝐂𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐞… 𝐑𝐄𝐏𝐄𝐀𝐓!

Linda is BACK — and this time she brought the creativity to our Skilled Nursing community! And WOW… our residents showed off some SERIOUS talent! From bold strokes to beautiful color choices, the room was buzzing with laughter, encouragement, and artistic magic.

There’s nothing better than watching our residents light up while trying something new, expressing themselves, and proudly showing off their masterpieces. These painting sessions aren’t just about art — they’re about connection, confidence, and creating joyful memories together.

Huge THANK YOU to Linda for sharing her talent (again!) and helping turn an ordinary day into an extraordinary one! We can’t wait for the next paint party!

Music, Smiles & Pure Joy!

Our hearts were absolutely full as two talented violinists came in to share their musical gifts with our skilled nursing residents!

There is something truly magical about watching generations come together through music. While our young performers filled the room with energy, kindness, and courage. Moments like these don’t just make our day — they create lasting connections and bring joy to everyone involved.

Thank you to these amazing young musicians and their families for sharing your time, talent, and big hearts with us. You made today unforgettable!
