🍁✨ Fall Reminds Us of God’s Steadfast Presence ✨🍁

As the leaves turn, fall reminds us that God’s creation is ever-changing—yet His love remains constant. 🍂

The vibrant colors of autumn point us to the Creator’s artistry, while the falling leaves call us to let go of what no longer serves us and trust in His plan. In the slowing pace of the season, we are invited to pause, reflect, and find gratitude for the many blessings we’ve been given.

In our Catholic faith, this season is a beautiful reminder of how God is present in every cycle of life—inviting us to grow, to let go, and to prepare our hearts for renewal. Just as the trees release their leaves, we, too, are called to release our worries and rest in the Lord’s care.

May this fall be a time of gratitude, reflection, and renewed trust in God’s goodness. 🌟🙏

🍂💐 Fall Beauty at the Villa! 💐🍂

A big thank you to the amazing students from St. John’s School who joined our Villa tenants this week to create these gorgeous fall floral arrangements! 🌻🍁✨

It was such a joy to see young hands and wise hands working side by side — sharing stories, laughter, and creativity. Together, they added a cheerful, seasonal touch to our Villa dining room, making it feel even more welcoming and warm. 💜

Moments like these remind us how special it is when generations come together, learning from and inspiring one another. 🫶

💜🌟 Celebrating Adult Day Services Week! 🌟💜

This past week we celebrated National Adult Day Services Week, and we couldn’t be prouder to recognize the incredible impact of Club Gabriel here at St. Paul Elder Services.

As the only Adult Day Services program in the Fox Valley, Club Gabriel is a vital resource for our community — a place where members find friendship, joy, and meaningful activities, and where families find peace of mind and support. 💕

The heartfelt words shared by our members, families, and staff say it all:
✨ “I feel good here.”
✨ “It’s a saving grace for us.”
✨ “It feels like a family.”

To our Club Gabriel team: thank you for your dedication, compassion, and for bringing so much light to the lives of those we serve. 🌟

📸 Take a look at some of the smiles, stories, and moments that make Club Gabriel so special.

Yesterday, 30 people stepped into the world of dementia through our Inside Dementia: A Guided Experience. This included both family and professional caregivers, volunteers, and community members.

Each person’s journey was different; some felt moments of confusion, others sensed heightened awareness, and many discovered compassion in unexpected ways. What united them all was a deeper empathy and a shared understanding that will stay with them long after the experience.

We are so grateful to everyone who took part in this powerful experience and for the meaningful conversations that followed. Together, we can create more awareness and support for those living with dementia. 💜

Stay tuned for more meaningful experiences and educational opportunities!

🎃🐾 Bella & her bestie Maui have their pumpkins ready… but they’re just a smidge too small for our big contest! 😉

We’re hoping to gather 75 pumpkins for a friendly little competition! 🎃✨

We’re so excited to host a Pumpkin Decorating Contest for our Friends with the help of their Extended Family. (SPES Extended Family members are associates from across our campus who aren’t necessarily part of direct care, but stop in to support, socialize, and facilitate activities.) We know that together, they’ll turn the pumpkins into spooktacular showstoppers! 👻🎨

If you’d like to help, pumpkins (big or small!) can be dropped off at the trailer on the E. 12th Street side of the building from September 29 – October 3.

Here’s how it works:
🎃 Oct. 13 → Friends & their Extended Family get started decorating
🎃 Oct. 27–30 → Pumpkins go on display in Haen (Kaukauna) & Grellinger Hall (Green Bay)
👉 Stop in during those days to cast your vote for your favorites!
🎃 Oct. 31 → Winners announced!

Categories include:
🧡 The Puniest Pumpkin
👻 The Monster Mash
🍂 Pumpkin Spice & Everything Nice
🐶 Pumpkin Pet
🏡 Porch Ready

Bella and Maui can’t wait to sniff out the competition and see all the paws-itively amazing pumpkins our Friends create! 🐾💜

🍎🎉 Apple-picking, cider-sipping, donut-dipping FUN! 🎉🍎

Our Friends spent a few days last week at the orchards, and let’s just say… fall looks good on us! 🍂 From filling bags with apples to picking out the perfect pumpkins, we had plenty of laughs, good company, and tasty treats along the way. 🥰

The only thing sweeter than the cider was the time we got to share together. 💜

Tell us… what’s YOUR favorite fall treat? Warm apple pie, a caramel apple, or a fresh glass of cider? 🍏🥧🍎

❤️💕 What a night at our Annual Associate Appreciation Banquet! 💕❤️

This year’s theme, The Heart of the Valley, was the perfect way to celebrate our associates and all we’ve accomplished together. From honoring those who’ve dedicated 5 years of service to celebrating two incredible associates who have each given 40 years, the evening was filled with pride, gratitude, and joy. 🌟

A heartfelt thank you to Van Abel’s for the amazing meal and hospitality, and to those who held down the fort at St. Paul’s and McCormick so others could attend—you are truly appreciated! 🙌

We are so blessed by the compassion, dedication, and spirit our associates bring to our mission every single day.

Here’s to celebrating the past, the present, and the bright future ahead! ✨

🐷🎉 What a roast! Tuesday’s Pig Roast was full of sunshine, laughter, and good eats! 🌞🍴

💃🕺 Our friends Still Cruisin’ had us tapping our toes and singing along all afternoon — they’re always a favorite! 🎶 And of course Bella made her rounds, soaking up all the love (and stealing the spotlight with her fluffy pantaloons 🐾💜).

From tasty plates to great company, it was a day filled with smiles, hugs, and plenty of fun under the tents.

💜 Much of this wonderful event is possible thanks to the generosity of our donors. Your support helps us create joyful experiences like this for those we serve. Want to help make the next celebration possible? 👉 https://stpaulelderservices.ddock.gives/?showBg

💜✨ What an incredible day at the Walk to End Alzheimer’s – Fox Valley! ✨💜

Our St. Paul Elder Services team joined together with our community to walk, reflect, and take steps toward a world without Alzheimer’s. We’re proud to share that, thanks to the generosity and support of so many, we raised $5,323! 🙌💜

From the start line to the Promise Garden, the spirit of hope, remembrance, and determination filled the day. A special thank-you to everyone who walked, donated, and cheered us on—you are making a difference in the fight to end Alzheimer’s.

Together, we honor the past, support those living with dementia today, and work toward a brighter tomorrow. 🌸💪

✨ Happy Founder’s Day! ✨

On September 13, 1943, Mrs. Edith Grignon became the very first resident of the original St. Paul Home for the Aged. This moment marked the beginning of what we now know as St. Paul Elder Services. 💜

For more than 80 years, our mission has remained steadfast—to honor life’s journey with faith-based, compassionate care. From our humble beginnings in the Thilmany mansion to the vibrant community we are today, we give thanks to the Franciscan Sisters of Christian Charity, whose vision and dedication made this ministry possible.

🙏 A Prayer of Gratitude and Hope
Lord, we thank You for the countless lives touched, the compassionate care given, and the many blessings You have poured out upon this ministry since its beginning. Just as You have guided us in the past, we place our trust in You for the future.

May we continue to serve with love, uphold the dignity of every person, and reflect Christ’s healing presence in all we do. Strengthen our hands, inspire our vision, and fill us with courage as we step into the next chapter of our mission.

“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord,
“plans to prosper you and not to harm you,
plans to give you hope and a future.” – Jeremiah 29:11

With faith in Your promise, we dedicate this milestone to You, O Lord, and entrust all the days ahead to Your care.

In Jesus’ name we pray,
Amen.
