What would we do without you?...........

 Over the years you have helped us with home maintenance – what would we do without you?  You have helped with building a wheel chair ramp, cutting the grass and planting shrubs and flowers – what would we do without you?  You have helped decorate our home for Christmas and fulfill several Wish List items – what would we do with out you?  You have become Big Sisters for our residents, you have volunteered your time to show and help with sewing and art and craft projects – what would we do without you? 

 Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.  We are truly blessed with your compassion and support for all of our special needs.

Chosen Vision benefits from Lansing Christian School (LCS) Service Week.

“Wow, what a volunteer work program LCS has”, board member Bob Tallian said.  “The LCS group was out for three days painting and cleaning Chosen Vision, our group home in Grand Ledge.  What they accomplished in those three days would have taken us three months”.  Activities included painting two of the residents rooms, power washing the vinyl siding and deck, planting shrubbery and general overall “spring cleanup”.

Service Week gives LCS students an opportunity to apply what they learn in the classroom by meeting the needs of others.   Joann Gould, Chosen Vision’s House Manager, said “teaching children to give of themselves is a labor of love.  I was personally blessed to work with such an awesome group of kids… the whole experience brought tears to my eyes”.

  Habitat for Humanity was gracious as always to build a wheelchair ramp for our front door.  The lady on the right bending over was the designated nailer - she is 82 years old......
