Spotlight on Spirituality For April: Grace

“Grace is God as a heart surgeon, cracking open your chest,

removing your heart - poisoned as it is with pride and pain -

and replacing it with his own.” Max Lucado

“I do not understand the mystery of grace: only that it meets us where we are and does not

leave us where it found us.” ~ Anne Lamott, Traveling Mercies: Some Thoughts on Grace

“I consider my life worth nothing to me, if only I may finish the race and complete the task

the Lord Jesus has given me; the task of testifying to the gospel of God’s grace.”

~ The Apostle Paul (Acts 20:24)

“Grace always demands the answer of gratitude. Grace and gratitude belong together like

heaven and earth. Grace evokes gratitude like the voice of an echo. Gratitude follows grace

like thunder follows lightning.” ~ Karl Barth, 20th century Swiss theologian

“Wherever life plants you, bloom with grace.” ~ French Proverb

Pastoral Care Department: Chaplain Joe, Chaplain Rebecca, Chaplain David

All about the Doolittle Raid

1:00pm - The Gulden Community Center

On April 18, 1942, 80 men led by Lt. Col. Jimmy Doolittle took off in B-25s from an aircraft

carrier to bomb Japan. It was the first retaliation after Pearl Harbor, and while the physical

damage to Japan was minimal the raid was a tremendous boost for morale back home. Nearly

every year since the raid, the men gather for a reunion —the last of which was held in Fort

Walton Beach. As part of the tradition, they hold a toast before a set of 80 goblets engraved

with each Raider’s name. After the toast, they overturn the goblet of any Raider who passed

on that year. In honor to Major Thomas C. Griffin our beloved Twin Tower resident and

remarkable American Hero, we will present a series of 4 Military Channel DVDs “All about the

Doolittle Raid.”

became her focus. Extensive travels to see their eight children living across the USA gave

55 different historic and active railway sites from coast to coast.

preservation.” Following the exhibit enjoy lunch in Mt. Adams

“WHEN USING THE NUSTEP, IS IT BETTER TO DO SMALL

STRIDES OR LONG STRIDES?”

THE CONNECTION

15 Minutes Can Save Your Life!

The Mercy Health Mobile Mammography Unit will be at Twin Towers parked

outside the Greeno Entrance.

April 6, 2015

8:30am – 11:30am

Please call 513-686-3300 today to schedule your

appointment.

The NuStep was designed for all populations, which includes

individuals with no limitations to individuals with certain

physical restrictions. It was designed to be very low impact

on the joints but also to give individuals a full body workout by

working the upper and lower body.

It is beneficial to go throughout the entire range of motion

when using the NuStep because you challenge the entire

muscle and joints with the longer strides.

However, some individuals cannot go

through the entire range of motion due to

physical limitations, which means they are

taking shorter strides. Ideally, you should

use the NuStep and take as long as

strides as you can without causing any

pain or overly fatiguing yourself.

We’ve come a long way baby….Do you remember those catchy quips that we red, heard or

tried to craft ourselves to get the attention of another person? Often, I do an annual inventory

of what has been accomplished with my team members. I often share with them what a great

job they have done to do God’s will, bless the residents, show appreciation and honor those

residents and volunteers who go to a better place at the end of their journey. Truly, each

year we continue to come a long way….from where we had started to where we arrive on

December 31st.

In the over 12 years I have been blessed to work with a phenomenal gentleman Tom Reusch

whose quiet demeanor may have him appear a bit shy. He is bright, humorous, hard working

and very faithful. I could not ask for a better person to work with. Over the years we have

hosted countless golf outings, volunteer appreciation events, fiesta’s, luau’s, Pastoral Care &

Park Committee meetings, blessings of the Angel Tree and concerts asking for free will

offering to name a few of his accomplishments. If time permits, stop in and share a kind word

with him.

Tom has sacrificed his time, his talent and treasure to show you how much he appreciates

working at Twin Towers. That is something that I admire. Just as Tom has worked hard, so to

have our volunteers & residents who do Friendly Visitation, Tower Desk greeters, worship

service, the Morning Announcements, Opening Minds through Art (OMA), Gifts-n-More,

straightening of the Library, Recycling and so many other happenings that bless so many.

A VERY BIG THANK YOU!!!!

Thank you for your faithful support of time, treasure and sharing the talents that Christ has

bestowed upon you. Twin Towers is the Light upon the hill due to all the efforts of all of our

residents, associates and our volunteers.

If you are interested in learning more about our volunteer needs, please call Tom Reusch at

853-2008. We would love to have your gift of time and talents. We would also ask you to ask

for the perfect gift from your family members by making a gift to the Benevolent Care Fund,

the Pastoral Care Fund, the General Fund or the Wilson Chapel Fund. It is a great way to be

honored and a great way to support the ministry of Twin Towers. Please pick up a brochure

of our needs that are available in the hallway’s throughout the main building. Together we

will continue the great works and continue to come a long way baby…..
