WESTMINSTER, CO (March 23, 2006) – The Covenant Retirement Community of Colorado celebrated its 10th anniversary over the weekend.<\/p>\n
The weekend featured a special buffet that 250 residents attended and were seated according to the year they arrived, a dessert reception for the community followed by worship service.<\/p>\n
“It was a great celebration,” says Karen Johnson, director of administrative services.<\/p>\n
The worship service was divided into three parts \u2013 “remembering our past,” “remembering our present,” and “remembering our future.” One of the community’s first residents, John Tomlinson, gave a reflection on the past. Campus administrator Bill Lange shared thoughts on the present, and CRC President Rick Fisk focused on the future.<\/p>\n
Midwest Conference Superintendent Ken Carlson and Associate Superintendent Rick Mylander also participated in the service. About 350 people from the residence and community attended the service, Johnson says.<\/p>\n
The facility is home to 410 residents, including people living in the assisted care and skilled nursing housing.<\/p>\n
