Leadership
"I came that they may have life, and have it abundantly." - John 10:10
These are the words that guide Lutheran SeniorLife's ministry of care for seniors. We strive to help all seniors enjoy the richness and fullness of life, regardless of their level of independence, abilities, health or financial circumstances. We live this ministry through each and every member of our staff, residents, patients, families, volunteers and clergy who comprise the Lutheran SeniorLife community.
Our ministry is reflected in the faces of the people of Lutheran SeniorLife – for whom this is not a job, or a place, or a responsibility, but rather a calling to help all seniors live a full and Abundant LifeSM in their own home for as long as possible.
A Message from our President
Lutheran SeniorLife is an organization rich in tradition, faith and in quality service delivered by our employees each and every day.
As a social ministry organization, Lutheran SeniorLife is committed to celebrating today and tomorrow by looking through the eyes of our residents, staff, the seniors who live in our communities and the moral owners of the three Lutheran Synods we serve.
Seniors and their families have been a constant foundation of our rich 100-year history, but their expectations and needs are ever-changing. What lies ahead is a new beginning with a broader delivery of services and communities to enhance senior living.
As the expectations of these seniors evolve, Lutheran SeniorLife will continue to deliver on its obligations and commitment, and will meet new opportunities by drawing upon our leadership, integrity and values to guide us.
