Even amid the difficulties of our coronavirus shelter at home situation, a resident took the time to express words of appreciation for living here at Nazareth House. She wrote to the staff:
“Thank you for all you do, every day, in every way, to turn this vision into the reality of living in this Garden of Eden, Nazareth House. I have been here for only five months, and it is already home. The grounds are beautiful, with flowers and fountains – wonderful places for quiet prayer and meditation. The food is excellent…. The people are sweet – so good, so holy, in many ways so much fun to be with. It’s almost as if the aging process has acted on these dear people with some sort of magic, where each wrinkle and gray hair has enhanced them with a quality that “young and beautiful” doesn’t possess. It’s the same way the inevitable natural process of growing old produces a ripe and rosy, delicious peach, a succulent wheel of cheese, a mellow glass of wine… and lovely, loving, lively, happy old folks!”
