May God richly bless you in this important work. My Mom spent her last 9 months on this earth at a facility and my Dad visited her every day. But most residents as you said do not have visitors and it is especially beautiful to me that you offer the Eucharist - a tangible sign of the sweetest Visitor of all. Thank you for what you are doing.

This video reminded me of what I had been doing for about 26 years or so in the Fort Myers, FL area and in north Georgia around Forsyth County. In one parish in Florida I was able to get a group of people together and form a ministry to the residents in a nursing home. Adults and youth were involved and it thrilled me to see how they connect to God's FORGOTTEN children. I learned so much from the residents in just listening to them. I found touch was very important for them. Often we were the only people from outside who came and cared about them. I am hoping in my new parish in south Georgia I can find people who are willing to take on this type of ministry. There is a joy when you speak and pray with someone and they smile and want to share their story with you.
