Are you musical? Do you play an instrument? Do you sing or are you part of a singing group? Gloria Dei is looking to bring more music into our community. We are an Independent Living Community and do not have funds for paid acts unfortunately, so we are hopeful to find some free entertainment for our seniors. If you love to perform and would be willing to do so for our seniors, please reach out to Valerie at Gloria Dei- 320-373-6618 or valerieimholte@ecumen.org to set something up. Thank you!
