CHOIR
Now meeting in-person
Something magical happens when people come together in song. The simple gift of sharing our voices bonds us together and heals us from within.
Maybelle Community Singers practice on Mondays from 11 AM - 12:30 PM in the Community Room and virtually via Zoom. We’ll meet weekly as we work towards a performance.
SOCIAL VISIT
Connect in-person or via phone
We'd love to hear about your day! We can meet in your home, in a public space, or via phone - whatever you prefer!
Some of our members meet with community volunteers, while others meet with university students - it's your choice.
SPIRITUAL HEALTH
Chat about grief, loss, or the big questions in life
We all go through periods in our life where we experience grief, loss of a loved one, or a spiritual crisis.
We are always here if you need someone to listen, to sit through the discomfort of uncertainty or hardship, and to celebrate successes. Chat via phone, email, or online - it's up to you.
Memorials
Share memories of a friend
Just like the deep sense of love we have for a close friend who moves away, friendships don't just evaporate at death. One way we can honor our friendships is by participating in memorials, lighting a virtual candle, or sharing our favorite memories.
RESOURCE NAVIGATION
Guidance and support to access community resources
With resources shifting day-to-day, many of us face barriers in accessing resources. We'll walk alongside you to navigate the process, whether it's obtaining a food box, health care, technology connections, or something else.
