No matter where you are in your walk with God, sharing your faith helps you connect with others and help them start their own faith journey. Talking about faith can be intimidating for some people, especially if you're worried about how your message will be received. There are many ways you can share your faith, which makes it easier to find options you feel comfortable doing. Try these options to get started.
No matter where you are, you can practice your faith and strengthen your walk with God. However, that journey is often easier when you embrace community and fellowship. Surrounding yourself with other people of faith can offer you several benefits. Living in a faith-based community, such as an assisted living community under the Bethesda Senior Living Communities umbrella, can offer you built-in community and fellowship to help you enjoy these benefits.
You're never too old to grow a deep relationship with God.

All the communities under the Bethesda Senior Living Communities umbrella offer faith-based living, with a selection of daily devotionals, Bible studies and Sunday worship services for residents.

Easter is an important season in the Christian church. It's a time of reflection on the life of Jesus and the sacrifices he made. Being intentional during Easter can help you prepare your heart and go deeper into your faith. Here are some ways to prepare for and embrace Easter.
Transitioning to assisted living can be a huge change for your loved one. Finding ways to support them makes you feel more involved and can make the move easier. You can start supporting your loved one before they move and continue until they feel settled in their new community, which could take weeks or months.
Assisted living provides all the comforts of a home environment, but with the added benefit of around-the-clock staff and help with daily tasks. Even so, the decision for a loved one to go into assisted living isn't easy and can take its toll on residents and their families.
Making the move into an assisted living community is a big step — one we hope you considered and planned carefully to ensure a vibrant and joyful life in your new home. At Bethesda Senior Living Communities, we're always so happy to welcome a new resident into one of our assisted living communities. We've seen residents thrive in their communities and find so much happiness and peace, but we also know such a move can be stressful and scary.
For older adults of faith, church can be a foundation of life. That stability might be as simple as having somewhere to go every Sunday to give structure to the week. It might be more complex, such as having a place and people to call on when you need assistance.
If you're an older adult who's been a person of faith for a long time, you may think you're almost done with Bible study. After all, you may have completed many plans to read through the Bible in a year and have a veritable library of finished Bible study workbooks on your shelves.
