In honor of Asian American, Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander Heritage Month, we are celebrating saints like Saint Paul Miki, the Patron Saint of Japan and one of the first native Japanese Christians whose faith endured even in the face of persecution.

As a Jesuit seminarian and gifted preacher, Paul Miki boldly shared the Gospel at a time when Christianity was outlawed in Japan. In 1597, he and 25 companions were arrested and crucified for their faith. From the cross, Paul continued to preach, stating just before his death “After Christ’s example, I forgive my persecutors. I do not hate them. I ask God to have pity on all, and I hope my blood will fall on my fellow men as a fruitful rain.” His courage and unwavering trust in God helped sustain the Catholic faith in Japan for generations. St. Paul Miki reminds us that even in the most difficult moments, faith, mercy and hope can leave a lasting impact.

Congratulations to Hannah Johnson, RN, our newest DAISY Award winner!
Hannah is recognized for her compassionate, calming bedside manner and for going above and beyond to meet her patients' needs. Her nominator shared, "After being awake for over 45 hours in labor, I was exhausted and weak by the time I arrived at postpartum care. Hannah recognized my emotions and made sure every need and want was met. She was calm, full of compassion and stayed by my side for both nights of my stay. She clearly cares for her patients and loves her job."

This Memorial Day, we pay tribute to the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to our country. As we gathered with friends and family, we also took a moment to acknowledge those who never made it home with a Table of Honor and a short prayer service last week, as an enduring symbol of remembrance.

In honor of Asian American, Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander Heritage Month, we are celebrating saints like Saint Magdalene of Nagasaki. Born near Nagasaki, Japan, Magdalene endured the loss of her family to martyrdom, yet her faith only deepened. Magdalene taught catechism, sought alms for the poor, visited the sick and encouraged fellow Christians during intense persecution. After several spiritual leaders were martyred, she continued their mission and eventually surrendered herself to authorities in 1634 to strengthen the courage of others. She endured torture for 13 days before her martyrdom. Canonized in 1987, Saint Magdalene remains a powerful witness of courage, solidarity and unwavering love for Christ.

When it comes to a stroke, every second counts, which is why our stroke response team moves quickly to deliver rapid, lifesaving treatment for every patient who comes through our doors. 50-year-old Heather Smith experienced that firsthand when she had her stroke last September.
Heather was pulling trash at her job when she noticed a stabbing pain in the back of her neck. Thinking she had been hit by something, she turned around, expecting to see blood or someone behind her, but neither was there. As the pain intensified, she tried to call her supervisor, who noticed her slurred speech and called an ambulance that brought her to our hospital, where her daughter works as a nurse.
There, Heather received a Tenecteplase (TNK) shot within 16 minutes, setting a hospital record for the fastest administration time on a patient. Because of her speedy and reliable care, Heather was able to go home after a few days' stay and continues to improve. She now has a new outlook on life, one focused on healthier habits, and looks forward to welcoming her third grandchild.
This , she's grateful to her care team and encourages others to stay active, be mindful of what they put into their bodies, and advocate for their health.

In honor of Asian American, Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander Heritage Month, we are celebrating saints like Saint Lorenzo Ruiz. Born in Manila to a Chinese father and Filipino mother, Lorenzo lived an ordinary life of faith as a husband and father. His life changed abruptly when he was accused of murder and sought refuge with Dominican missionaries traveling to Japan. Arriving amid persecution, Lorenzo remained with the missionaries, knowing the danger ahead. He was arrested in Nagasaki and endured severe torture, yet his faith strengthened in the face of suffering. Canonized in 1987 as the first Filipino saint, his life reflects courage, faith and unwavering trust in Christ.

Manager of Pastoral Care Chip Chipman says the team is always looking for ways to integrate more deeply into the care experience, ensuring patients and families have access to support when they need it. From knocking on doors to visiting with families in the waiting room, there is a spiritual element to listening and offering a gentle presence.
