I joined the Chamber because…
We wanted to be more involved in the community and to show support where support
is needed.
Why did you decide to invest in Logan County?
The Christian Village opened in Lincoln in 1965 as the result of the leap of
faith of nine visionary men from Central Illinois who wanted to build a
Christian home for older adults who could no longer care for themselves. That
dream expanded to other locations as part of Christian Homes, Inc., which is now
the second largest not-for-profit long-term healthcare provider in the U.S.
What products and services do you offer to Logan County?
The Christian Village is a continuous care retirement community that is able to
promote independence while providing peace of mind, ensuring that as the needs
of our residents change, we will be able to accommodate those changes. As a
faith-based organization, we strive to provide resident-centered, cost-effective
health programs and services to each and every resident in our community. We
offer the following services as well as many more.
Independent Living: Garden Homes & Garden Apartments
Skilled Nursing: Short-term rehabilitation, memory care, respite care, and
hospice care.
What does the future of your business look like?
The future of The Christian Village looks bright as we get ready to celebrate
our 50th anniversary in 2015 and prepare for the next 50 years of service to
older adults in Logan County.
