Hi there! I'm a nondenominational Christian chaplain with a ministry to elders, especially those with Alzheimer's and other dementias.
This channel provides: + 86 videos of classic hymns and 20 Christmas carols, specifically arranged as sing-alongs for elders with dementia: slower, shorter, and in a lower key that usual, with easy-to-read lyrics. + A year's worth of full-length (~45 min) nondenominational church services, with hymns, scripture readings, interactive homily, poems, stories, and more, for elders who may no longer be able to attend their regular place of worship. + Bible study activity videos (15-20 minutes) to help you lead engaging, interactive discussions with elders.
Please "like" the videos and subscribe to this channel, which will help others find these resources.
You'll find more free resources on my website, SpiritualEldercare.com.
I'm based in Boulder, CO. Please contact me if you have any questions or requests. elisa@spiritualeldercare.com
I have never heard this rendition. I have been singing this song in church for over 30 years, same words but entirely different music, rhythm, and melody. Love this song, thanks for sharing!!
My name is Donna and I thank God for leading us to Chaplain Elisa and her channel. The activity room is filled with residents every Sunday for the service. All members are from age 65 to 100+ years. Being nondenominational brings Residents of all denominations love you here❣️ The residents and activity staff at Accolade Healthcare in Paxton on Pells Paxton, IL
Thank you for the wonderful service on Citizenship. We spent a long time thinking about the questions you raised in our lounge. It was particularly appropriate for us to watch it today, as we had our national elections.
@@SpiritualEldercareoh ok, I understand. We are singing this song, using this video in Sabbath School class for Primary aged kids and have found that this fits them well! But was looking for the music only to this specific song because it’s working so well. Want to present this as a special with my class at church ☺️
Thank you for this material, I’ve been looking for old hymns that haven’t been changed and are in a lower key. This is a lot of work to make it accessible for us and our elder community. Thank you very much! I just noticed this when trying to follow the transcript, and I don’t know if this is in your power, but it is very messed up. I think the computer translated the words the way it heard them. I had to redo anyway, so no problem for me. Thank you again!!!❤
The color of the ROSE IS DOMINANT COLOR ROSE found in SACRED TILMA OF MARY depicted in OUR LADY OF GUADALUPE TILMA OF JUAN DIEGO who had gathered the ROSES IN THE SNOW OF TEPEYAC MOUNTAIN as DIRECTED BY OUR MOTHER OF GOD, MOTHER OF “the SHOOT OF JESSE”; Father of DAVID and GRANDFATHER OF JOSEPH… ROYAL SPOUSE OF MARY and FOSTER- FATHER OF JESUS “EMMANUEL “ as pointed out in Family Tree of Jesus in Chapter 2 of GOSPEL OF MATTHEW ! On Judgement Day, May the Doubters of the Worthiness of Joseph to have been CAREFULLY; LOVINGLY, been WOVEN INTO OUR CREATOR; JESUS’ BOOK OF LIFE … our LIVING BREAD ! WOE BE THOSE WITH OFF-HAND DISMISSALS… COME JUDGEMENT DAY !❤😂😂😂
Good question! My hymn arrangements are specifically designed to meet the needs of people living with brain changes, including dementia. That means they are slower in tempo, shorter (2-3 verses instead of 4-5+), and in a lower key than usual, with very easy-to-read lyrics and no distracting visual elements.
Thank You for getting this out early. Amazon will be able to deliver the supplies I need long before 02/14. This will meet a tradition for some, but will be a new step for some others. The season of Lent is a time in our own desert of life, being ready to enjoy more of Him and His Life Eternal.
