This popular smorgasbord has been in existence since the mid 1980’s and has served hundreds of thousands of meals.

Time: Serving Begins at 11:45 and continues until 12:30

Location: Good Shepherd’s John Linden Chapel

Cost: $6.oo for seniors 62 and older, $7.00 for invited guests and visitors

The telephone reassurance program is made available to help senior citizens remain independent in their own home or apartment longer.  At a specific time each day, 7 days a week, an operator will call the subscriber or the subscriber may choose to call in to report they are all right.  If the person has not called in at the designated time, someone on our staff will call them.  If there is still no answer to our repeated calls, someone designated by the caller will be sent to check on the subscriber.
