LutherCare LightPage 2 March 2015 Spiritual Care Corner Faith active in love “Behold, from faith thus flow forth love and joy in the Lord, and from love a joyful, willing and free mind that serves one’s neighbor willingly.” - Martin Luther Our story as LCC began with a lively faith in a loving and gracious God. In March of 1955, the Lutheran Sunset Home opened its doors to the first of 58 residents. The first “superintendent” was Pastor Knut Bergsagel and the first “matron” was Sister Marie Weiks. From the beginning, they understood the home as “a practical expression of our Christian faith in the care of the aged and infirm.” Caring for older adults was a tangible expression of what Saint Paul described as “faith active in love” (Galatians 5:6). In Pastor Bergsagel’s January 1955 report to the board he writes, “those who are admitted to the home will receive… blessings not easily evaluated in dollars and cents.” Residents were chosen by Rev. Renita Falkenstern on the basis of “their personal character” and not on the basis of religious denomination. Christian hospitality meant welcoming those in need rather than those who shared the same creed. In terms of staffing, he stressed the need for “workers interested in human beings, who have special awareness of needs and capabilities of old people, unlimited patience, a sense of humour, good health, and an abundance of energy.” If the home was to be “blessing” to residents, it needed to be a place where residents felt welcomed as members of a large family. And most important of all, staff needed to be kind and caring. Many of the first residents were essentially independent. Some residents carried their own suitcases when they moved into the Home, made their own beds and helped clear the dishes. However, it quickly became apparent that the need for higher level of care would soon become necessary as residents aged and became more frail. The leadership was committed to finding new ways to continue caring for the residents. One expansion followed after another. Soon other housing projects, group homes, intermediate care homes, family housing and day programs would follow, including facilities in Outlook and Estevan. Today, we seek to carry on the tradition of meeting needs and caring for people. The response to those needs may come in many forms, but at the centre of that response will always be a faithbased, caring community – a place of belonging through which people may be blessed. We do this not because we have to, but as a practical expression of our “faith active in love.” ..continued from page 1 The Fastest Solo Male was Pastor Randy Meissner in a new record time of 2:53.20. Talie Salzl was Fastest Solo Female in a time of 1:53.86. LutherCare Communities marks its 60th year of operation in 2015. This photo was taken on March 28, 1955, the day that the first residents began moving into Lutheran Sunset Home at 1212 Osler Street in Saskatoon. The first Superintendent and Chaplain, Rev. Dr. Knut Bergsagel, is shown in the centre of the scene, surrounded by some of the first residents and staff members.
