I am a 71 year old lady and had been physically active and independent. I was diagnosed with osteoporosis many years ago but over time the osteoporosis only got worse and did not respond to treatment. After several falls, my ability to care for myself was severely restricted. I never married and therefore have no children to help me. I do have 3 younger siblings. We are very close spiritually but not geographically.

I had to sell my home and move into an Assisted Living Residence. The residents, of the Assisted Living, come from a variety of backgrounds, living experiences and have various levels of hearing and understanding.
As I look back on my last few months I realize that the Holy Spirit always was with me to help me make the decisions that would change my life . I also believe that the Holy Spirit continues to support and guide me as the residents and staff of the Assisted Living Home have became “my family”.
Prior to this medical situation and life style change, I had been volunteering as a Stephen Minister at the local hospital. Before entering a patient’s room I prayed to God for guidance and was comforted knowing that the Holy Spirit would be with me.

I am still getting used to meeting new residents but truly believe that God has planted me here to help lead others to salvation through Christ. The Holy Spirit continues to guide me to those residents who have not yet turned their hearts and lives to our Lord.
