Seniors

Living Independently at Home - first in a series for Solo Agers

Minuteman Senior Services will present resources that enable older adults to continue living at home. Learn what’s available; whether you need services today or want to know what’s available for future needs. While open to all, the presentation will focus on the unique needs of Solo Agers – those without the support of adult children or family. An audience discussion will follow the presentation. To register: call 781-721-7136 or visit www.jenkscenter.org

SoulCollage® Workshop and Labyrinth Walk

Walk. Dream. Imagine. Create.
Saturday, May 11, 2024, 9:00 AM – Noon
Jane Ring Frank, certified SoulCollage® facilitator, will offer a workshop in the stunning Ripley Chapel that incorporates the church’s beautiful Reno Garden labyrinth with a deep spiritual SoulCollage® practice.
SoulCollage® is a collage process for accessing your intuitive wisdom. Even though this is an “art project,” it is accessible, and anyone can do it. You don’t need to be an artist to create beautiful SoulCollage® cards with rich meaning and messages for your life. We will couple our “soul” work with a labyrinth walk
