What a beautiful morning of faith and friendship 💙

Our residents were honored to be invited to Pope John XXIII Regional High School (Pope John Lions) in Sparta, NJ for a recent service and luncheon with the students and advisors who visit our community each month.

We’re grateful for these incredible young leaders and the meaningful bond we share with the Pope John community.

BIG smiles all around! 😁🕯 We recently enjoyed a fun day of candle making at Poured by Iazzetti Home, which features over 100 custom scents to choose from.

At Bristol Glen, experiences like this are part of everyday life, at every age. In the first photo, you’ll spot Kimi Sosna, our Director of Community Life, alongside one of our residents, John, who is 99 years young and already ready for our next adventure!

Snapshots of the fun we had with our “honorary grandchildren!” 📸

Students from Newton High School’s Future Business Leaders of America recently spent the morning visiting with residents as part of their Honorary Grandparents program.

With twice‑monthly visits, these meaningful (and comical!) conversations about school days, careers, future goals, and life lessons are helping build genuine connections that are rewarding for everyone involved.

🌍✈️ Passport not required! ✈️🌍

Each week, we travel the world — without ever leaving home — through our popular virtual travel series. From learning about a country’s history and landmarks to picking up a few words in the native language, every trip is both fun and meaningful.

This week, we visited France, where residents enjoyed pictures and videos of iconic sites, sipped flavored Perrier, indulged in buttery croissants, and even took home a stylish beret to remember the day. 🥐

Next stop? Spain!
