Celebrating a special anniversary

At the beginning of the month, we have celebrated a special occasion: the 60th wedding anniversary of two of our residents, Christel and Horst. The two have lived at Martin Luther Homes (MLH) for almost 13 years and have contributed significantly towards creating the lovely community that we have here at MLH. Horst now lives in the aged care facility and Christel in the retirement village, so the two had not only one (surprise) party but two.

Unsuspectingly, Christel and Horst were asked to stop by the Activity Room on their way out. The couple were surprised by our aged care residents in the beautifully decorated room and got congratulated by everyone. After a toast, they even had a dance together, just like in old times. When Christel and Horst left to go home, they were told that there is a second stopover. Our residents from the retirement village awaited the couple in the Community Hall with another surprise party in their honour. Horst and Christel enjoyed their special celebrations and thank everyone for the lovely afternoon!
