General Announcements

Guérin Woods Senior Center welcomes visitors for family activities on June 19

Providence Self Sufficiency Ministries (PSSM) invites the public to “A Taste of PSSM” from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. on June 19 at the Guérin Woods Senior Center in Georgetown.

“We hope people will visit our campus and learn more about our programs,” said Providence Sister Barbara Ann Zeller, president of PSSM, Guérin Inc. and The Meadows of Guérin Inc.

The afternoon will feature refreshments, crafts, music and a puppet show for children. The event is free and open to the public.

Most activities will be at the senior center. Some residents of Guérin Woods and The Meadows apartments will sit on their front porches to greet visitors.

Children living at Providence House will also participate in the activities.

Forty-nine senior citizens live in the 22 two-bedroom apartments at Guérin Woods and 24 one-bedroom apartments at The Meadows. Thirty senior citizens live at The Villas of Guérin Woods, three self-contained residences that provide assisted living and skilled nursing care for seniors in need of services. A fourth villa for senior citizens will open in the fall.

PSSM was established in New Albany in 1994 and moved to the Georgetown location in 2000 when Guérin Inc. built two group homes for Providence House for Children, which provides foster care for abused and neglected children, and six three-bedroom apartments for families reuniting with children in foster care.

PSSM and Guérin expanded to provide services for senior citizens age 62 and older with limited incomes in 2004.

For more information about “A Taste of PSSM,” call Providence Sister Joanna Valentino at 812-951-2484.

 

Pilgrimage to Wisconsin is July 20-22

Msgr. Joseph F. Schaedel, vicar general, will be the spiritual director for a pilgrimage on July 20-22 to the National Shrine of Our Lady of Guadalupe in LaCrosse, Wis.

Our Lady of Guadalupe is the patroness of the Americas and the pro-life movement.

The pilgrims will celebrate Mass at the shrine church, and pray during the Way of the Cross and the Rosary Walk.

Reservations are $289 per person for motor coach transportation, a double room, two breakfasts and one lunch. The registration deadline is June 29.
