Disability living services play a key role in supporting individuals with disabilities to lead fulfilling and independent lives. These services offer essential personal care like help with bathing, dressing, and meal preparation, allowing people to remain in their homes and maintain autonomy. Access to assistive technology, such as wheelchairs, hearing aids, and adaptive software, helps individuals overcome daily challenges and improve communication. Social and recreational programs are also an important part of these services, providing opportunities for community involvement, skill development, and friendship, which can reduce feelings of isolation and enhance emotional well-being. Disability living services are a foundation for building an inclusive community where everyone can participate fully in life. Visit our website to learn more about how these services can benefit you or your loved ones.

Our very own Carla Kieft and Paula Gomez joined the Daily Grind yesterday morning to talk about our Giving Tuesday campaign! We’re raising money to purchase an adult changing table, an essential item that will allow us to better serve individuals with higher physical needs in a safe and dignified way.

Even more exciting? A generous donor is matching the first $5,000! That means every dollar you give will go twice as far in helping us create accessible spaces where everyone is treated with care and respect.

Some moments should never feel impossible. For individuals with higher support needs, a restroom without the right equipment can mean discomfort and care that happens in spaces that aren’t private or safe. It can mean choosing between participation and basic dignity.

This GivingTuesday on December 2, we’re raising money to equip our Spirit Lake My Day facility with a Pressalit 2100 adult changing table. This single upgrade creates a safe, clean, height-adjustable space for personal care, reduces strain on staff, and restores comfort and privacy for the people we serve, today and for years to come.

Give at ➡ https://bit.ly/4pmZn2J and help us create an accessible space where dignity isn’t optional.

We are so grateful for Hull First Reformed Church and their generous support. Your donation will mean far more than just a wheelchair; it will mean opportunity and independence.
Because of you, a child will attend school for the very first time. A single mother will have a safe place to rest her child besides her arms, freeing her to seek work and provide for her family. Someone will finally be able to pursue employment or attend church in their own community. You may not be able to change the whole world, but for one person, your generosity just changed theirs.

This song was a source of strength and hope for the members of the choir as they shared they God-given talents and their faith in the Lord.
The Gospel Choir performed over 295 concerts throughout the tri-state area. A highlight was singing with Joni Earecksen Tada during several concerts in 1993.
Esther Clevering was a long-time Director of the Gospel Choir along with Ann VerBurg who was the Choir's long-time pianist. Mary Vander Bosch was the first pianist for the choir while Henrietta Vanden Bosch aslo played for the choir.

Earlier this week, before the snow fell, the OC My Day group took a walk to gather leaves and those leaves turned into thankful turkeys!
What a fun way to reflect on gratitude and get creative!
