Did you know? Landis Homes is home to a Courtyard Railroad Club, created by residents in the winter of 2005–2006. This outdoor G-scale model railroad was designed not just for enjoyment, but for therapeutic value, especially for residents in personal care. Operated by volunteers during the warmer months, the railroad continues to delight residents, families, and visitors as the trains wind through a carefully landscaped courtyard near East Bethany Chapel.

This Christmas season, we invite you to pause and reflect through Season of Light, a glimpse into the meaningful moments unfolding across Landis Communities as we prepare for the holidays and watch the lights come alive.

We hope these stories encourage you and reflect the blessings we share together. From all of us at Landis Communities, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
