The New Dining Experience at Nazareth House

January 28, 2019 By Nazareth House Leave a Comment

In combination with our residents, nutritional adviser, and a senior dining expert, we have enhanced the Nazareth House dining experience!  Entree choices have increased, new recipes have been added, and service is more individualized.  Old favorites like our homebaked scones, spaghetti bolognese, and spinach salads are of course still offered.  We hear everyday:  “The food is great!”.   The Dinner Meal is served at noon. Guests and visitors are welcome, please call to arrange.

Donation to St. Vincent de Paul Society

April 9, 2018 By Nazareth House Leave a Comment

They saved their pennies and spare change for a year, feeding the piggy bank until bursting. They collected $500, and a match from the Sisters brought the amount to $1,000!  During a recent Resident Council meeting, with pride, they presented a check to the local St. Vincent de Paul Society.  Shown here are our Chaplain Rev. Robert Kevin White happily handing over the donation to Peter Gallagher, Board Member St. Vincent de Paul.  We are proud of our residents for their kindness and generosity.

August 10, 2017 By Nazareth House Leave a Comment

Our bi-monthly birthday celebration in August was lively with Dave Marty on banjo playing lots of familiar tunes.  Dave is an inductee in the American Banjo Museum Hall of Fame, and when you hear him play, you know why!  Thanks to Dave and to the gracious Nazareth House Auxiliary birthday committee volunteers who decorated beautifully and served a most delicious fresh fruit cake!  You can hear Dave at this site:

Succulents by Daisy

August 9, 2017 By Nazareth House Leave a Comment

Daisy seems to have a green thumb.  She has shared her talents with the other residents here at Nazareth House by creating a succulent bed among the Care Center vegetable garden.  Her advice:  shade from the sun when too hot, and enjoy watching the babies sprout from the mother plant!

“The corn is as high….”

August 8, 2017 By Nazareth House Leave a Comment

…and the tomatoes too!  The gardeners, under the direction of Sister Cecilia, have green thumbs for sure.  Veggies can be found tucked away in various nooks around our lush campus courtyards. Residents enjoy pruning or admiring, as the spirit moves them.
