Life is a journey filled with lessons, celebrations and
special moments that ultimately lead us to our destination, our purpose in
life. The road will not always be smooth and we may encounter many challenges.
Some of these will test our courage, strengths, weaknesses, and faith. Along
the way, we may stumble upon obstacles that must be overcome. But, sometimes
these obstacles are really blessings in disguise, although we may not realize
it at the time. How we react to the situations we face will determine what the
rest of our journey will be like.
This month Juniper Communities will honor our Families and
cherish the journey we have taken together. November is all about celebrating
the bonds we share and recognizing where we’ve been and where we’re going. We
will do this through autobiographical journaling, reminiscing about family
celebrations and breaking bread together in Thanksgiving. In order to support
our families along this journey we will continue to develop our support groups
and provide additional resources when needed. We will give back through our
Annual Food Drive. From November 1 through November 30 all non-perishable food
items collected will be donated to a local food bank.
Our fabulous activity offerings this month include our Annual
Food Drive where you can drop off non-perishable food items for the Harry
Chapin Food Bank anytime all month long; our “A Symbol of Remembrance” event
where we learn about the poem In Flanders
Fields and the Red Poppy as a representation for death, renewal and life,
while making homemade flowers for a local Veteran’s Museum; or our 2nd Annual
Surviving Hurricane Season Party featuring drinks, appetizers, and door prizes
for guests in our beautiful courtyard, as we thank our lucky stars for an
uneventful hurricane season on November 13th from 4:00 pm to 5:00
pm.
Look through our calendar and plan to join us for family
celebrations, Thanksgiving dinners and many events and activities allowing us
all to reflect and Cherish the Journey!
