We joyfully embraced the return of the Melting Pot Ministries to our community, eagerly awaiting their visit and excited to craft festive turkey decorations alongside them. But then, an unexpected surprise unfolded—resident families and children gathered happily around McDonald's cheeseburgers, sharing laughter and connection. The children’s faces lit up with exhilaration as they arrived, and as they parted ways, they couldn’t hide their eager anticipation—bursting with excitement, they declared they couldn’t wait for next month’s visit!

Today, our hearts are full of joy, and we had the fantastic opportunity to celebrate the incredible contributions of our pillar, Liz, the Director of Community Integration. Liz, who seamlessly collaborates across every department, brings passion and dedication to her work every single day. She’s the someone we can always turn to, a steady presence with a kind heart and a welcoming spirit, whether it’s our family members, residents, team members, or friends.
Liz’s unwavering kindness and radiant spirit shine brightly each day, illuminating our community in ways words can hardly express. Liz, without a doubt, your presence is the soul of our Artis family.
