Taking the Long View 

Listening to the past - 

Leading for the future

Dear Friends of Presbyterian Homes & Services, 

One of the greatest strengths I have found in Presbyterian Homes & Services 

(PHS) is its ability to take the long view. While so many organizations are required 

to think quarter to quarter and even day to day, PHS is able to focus broadly 

on the organization’s mission to enrich the lives of older adults through services 

and communities that reflect the love of God. Over the long haul, PHS has 

demonstrated its aptitude for operational and financial balance, ensuring that 

our residents and clients are well served. 

This approach has sustained PHS through the numerous economic ups and downs 

of the past 50+ years. In the current economy, such capability is more important 

than ever. The board of directors is confident that PHS will continue to navigate 

with integrity and stewardship through a turbulent climate and maintain its course 

of excellence. Our ministry is clear, our business practices sound, our financial 

position solid and our patron base growing. If any senior housing and services 

provider is positioned to effectively serve older adults today and tomorrow, 

I believe it is PHS. 

This edition of Perspectives narrates that long view both behind and before us. 

We are starting to provide for a new generation of residents and clients, and to 

introduce PHS to the generation that will follow. We are listening, learning and 

shaping our communities and services accordingly in a continued commitment 

to promote and uphold the freedom and independent choice of older adults. 

Taking the long view requires the board of directors to thoughtfully oversee the 

organization’s performance while lifting our eyes to the future. We cannot do 

this without the commitment of the PHS staff, loyalty of volunteers, generosity 

of donors, and confidence of residents and their families. 

While the times are uncertain, PHS holds on to the hope and certainty of Jesus 

Christ and his faithfulness to us. On behalf of the board, I thank you for your 

continued trust and ask for your prayer. We look forward to sharing this ministry 

in 2010 and for many years to come. 

Sharing God’s love together, 

Austin Chapman 

Board Chair

News and Events of PHS Communities 

The Hearth 

Kindred Care Suites, the Enhanced 

Assisted Living option offered since 

2008 at Waverly Gardens, Norris Square 

and McKenna Crossing, has been renamed 

as The Hearth. The Hearth offers the 

freedom and benefits of assisted living, 

enhanced with the added support of 

continuous, high level 24-hour care and 

services. Assistance is given for daily 

living needs and personalized 

health care so that an older adult’s 

energy and attention may be given to 

quality life, meaningful relationships 

and a sense of belonging. 

Operation Christmas 

Child Gives Christmas Away 

Give Christmas Away this Year was the 

theme motivating residents and staff 

who filled more than 1,500 shoeboxes with 

gifts for children in need for Operation 

Christmas Child. At 23 PHS communities, 

friends worked side-by-side filling boxes 

with toys, school supplies, personal care 

items, books, hats, socks, caps and hard 

candy. A child who was helping tried to 

imagine another child who had no toys. 

At a Glance 

A resident said that the best part of helping 

was the joy she felt as she imagined a child 

opening the box she had packed. 

Several resident and staff volunteers 

delivered boxes and assisted at a local 

warehouse in early December 2009. 

Shoeboxes were prepared there to be 

shipped around the world by Samaritan’s 

Purse, a charitable organization founded 

and led by Franklin Graham. 

Veterans Honored 

in Iowa and D.C. 

Five residents of Mill-Pond in Ankeny, 

Iowa were honored by the Iowa Honor 

Flight Network, a non-profit organization 

that transports America’s veterans to the 

nation’s capital to visit the memorials 

honoring their service and sacrifice. Hazel 

Glaze, Ken Agard, Audrey Jordahl, Bob 

Nielson and Jim Beatty were flown, free 

of charge, from Des Moines, Iowa to 

Washington D.C. where they visited the 

Capital Mall war memorials and Arlington 

National Cemetery. 

“They did everything possible to assure 

us that we would indeed feel honored,” 

said Bob Nielson. “From the moment I 

received my invitation until we returned 

from D.C., we all received royal treatment.” 

In Iowa and D.C. people lined up along the 

walkways waving flags and cheering to 

greet the veterans. They were treated to 

dinner and entertainment by the U.S.O. and 

carried home gifts including jackets, water 

bottles and hats to remember the day.

2009 Memory Walk 

John Weber walked the picturesque trails 

of McKenna Crossing for 24 hours straight 

during the 2nd annual “Rock and Walk.” 

The event, held in September 2009, 

raised awareness and $6,200 for 

Alzheimer’s disease. John’s mother, 

Corrine, is a resident at The Arbor memory 

care. In the course of the walk, he was 

accompanied by his mother and several 

other McKenna Crossing memory care 

residents, along with their loved ones. 

McKenna Crossing joined 14 other PHS 

communities to raise $47,740 for the 

Alzheimer’s Association of Minnesota- 

North Dakota. PHS residents and staff 

walked in the Twin Cities Memory Walk, 

held September 26, 2009 at Hyland Lake 

Park Reserve in Bloomington. GracePointe 

Crossing organized and hosted the 

Cambridge Area walk, and the New 

Richmond, Wisconsin walk was led by The 

Deerfield. Campus walks and fundraisers 

were held at Stonecrest, St. Andrew’s 

Village, The Farmstead, SummerWood of 

Chanhassen and Plymouth, Croixdale, 

Presbyterian Homes of Inver Grove 

Heights and EagleCrest. 

North Woods 

Quilting Partnership 

Heartwood in Crosby, Minnesota has 

joined efforts with Salem Lutheran Church, 

Deerwood, Minnesota to make quilts for 

orphans in Honduras. The quilts, made 

from donated materials, are created by 

residents and church members. Children 

and youth of the congregation made 25 

quilts featuring their original artwork 

transferred onto fabric quilt squares. 

Nearly 75 quilts have been transported 

and delivered to the orphanages by 

Salem Church’s mission teams. The Salem 

congregation worships every Sunday in the 

Heartwood auditorium while its new church 

building is under construction. 

A “Sound” Success 

at Inver Grove Heights 

Residents, families and staff of Presbyterian 

Homes of Inver Grove Heights raised 

$14,500 for its campaign, Enhancing Your 

Experience. The campaign provided funds 

to install an improved sound system in the 

chapel/community room used for worship 

services, musical entertainment, life-long 

learning presentations, and guest speakers. 

A retractable screen, projector with a Blu-Ray 

video player, CD player, and cable TV were 

also installed for residents to enjoy movies, 

shows, and sporting events. The community 

raised all of the funds needed to complete 

the campaign within eight months. 

Sandeen Road Cabin 

A small crowd of family and friends of Dennis 

Busserd, former neighbor of Presbyterian 

Homes of Arden Hills, gathered in October 

2009 at the door of the one-room log cabin 

he had owned, on what would have been his 

90th birthday. Dennis passed away in August 

2009. In his memory, the family placed a 

small commemorative plaque on the cabin 

door. The cabin, located on Sandeen Road 

and adjacent to the Arden Hills campus, 

had been in Dennis’ family since 

1960. It was acquired by PHS and 

is being maintained as a historical 

example of an early summer home 

on Lake Johanna. Sharon Peckles, 

friend of Dennis and volunteer 

at Arden Hills, who organized the 

event said, “We are just grateful 

to be able to commemorate our 

friend at the place he loved.”

Care Comes Home 

Olivia Erickson doesn’t often 

ask for help. At age 73, she is 

active in her community and 

church, drives wherever she 

wishes and makes her own 

decisions. 

Olivia and her husband, Gene, were wise 

to move two years ago into a townhome 

in Maplewood, Minnesota, designed to 

support them as they grow old together. 

Their plan is to live in their own home for 

as long as confidently and comfortably 

possible. That plan was put to the test 

when Olivia needed major foot surgery last 

Creative Independence gives older adults 

the freedom to live well at home. 

September. Following her hospital stay, 

she was in transitional care at Presbyterian 

Homes of Roseville when she learned that 

Creative Independence ® , the in-home care 

division of Presbyterian Homes & Services 

(PHS), could help her get back home and 

back on her feet. 

As a member of the Presbyterian Homes 

& Services family, Creative Independence 

emerges from a mission and commitment 

to extend high quality care into the homes 

of older adults. Creative Independence 

offers innovative personalized care plans 

designed to deliver just the services 

needed by an individual to give them the 

freedom to live well at home. 

In the past, if an older adult suffered a 

serious injury or chronic illness, it signaled 

that it was time to move in with family 

or go to into a long-term care facility. 

Presbyterian Home Care was formed in 

1980 to provide care to persons who were 

on a PHS community’s wait list, until such 

time as the person could move in. 

Today, for many people, that is no longer 

the case. Older adults are looking for 

support to live independently even as they 

begin to need help with everyday tasks. 

Creative Independence was organized in 

2008 in response to this growing trend. In 

2009 its client base grew from 50 to over 

400. “It’s a way to introduce PHS and its 

approach to providing care to individuals, 

perhaps well before they have considered 

other living options,” said Beckie Conway, 

Creative Independence Executive Director. 

People often have assumptions about 

how they will be treated by home care 

providers. Olivia admits she was anxious 

that someone would come into her home 

and take over - telling her what she could 

and could not do. When Bethany Krueger, 

Creative Independence Home Health Aide 

arrived, she quickly put Olivia at ease. “I’m 

a guest in her home,” said Krueger. “Olivia 

was inviting me in and trusting me. My 

job was to find out what her goals were 

to regain her health.” Krueger reassured 

that while she provided the skill, Olivia 

controlled her own recovery. 

“Bethany was very professional and very 

kind,” remarked Olivia. Krueger assisted 

her with bathing and dressing, medication 

set-up, exercises, checked and re-wrapped 

the bandage on her foot, and recorded her 

vitals. She also helped with light chores 

around the house at Olivia’s request. 

Krueger was one of Olivia’s care team 

that also included a care manager, nurse, 

and physical and occupational therapists 

who worked together to deliver her 

personalized and coordinated care. Olivia 

felt a good rapport with all the members 

of the team. “I was very happy with their 

service. I had high expectations and they 

got results for me.” 

Olivia shared small 

victories with team 

members each time she 

reached a goal, such as 

moving from walker to 

cane, to free-standing. 

“On my last visit she 

expressed how much she 

appreciated my services,” 

recalled Krueger. “It was 

a really good moment 

for me to know that I 

provided good service 

for her.” 

Creative Independence offers home care 

services for short-term recovery from an 

illness or injury to help older adults, like 

Olivia, until they feel stronger and regain 

their independence. For those whose 

needs are greater, Creative Independence 

offers long-term care services aimed at 

helping clients learn to manage their 

health and maintain their optimal wellbeing 

while remaining in their homes. 

The highly trained care providers visit 

clients who only need a few hours of 

home care per month as well as clients 

who need care several hours a day, 7 

days a week, and any level in between. 

“This is where we live up to our name,” 

said Conway. “We say to our clients, 

‘Let’s be creative to see how we can 

support you to stay in your own home 

at your highest level of independence.’ 

That’s what it’s all about.” 

Conway sees changes in culture related 

to aging and health care. She envisions 

Creative Independence eventually 

providing massage therapy, alternative 

medicines, and spiritual support such 

as chaplain visits. “We’re a faith-based 

organization that understands wellness as 

holistic. I think that’s something unique 

that we can offer to clients in the future.”

Across Generations 

at Presbyterian Homes of Arden Hills 

George Knieriemen’s family has been part of Presbyterian Homes for over 40 years. 

p 

George and Cheryl 

Knieriemen 

George Knieriemen’s 

parents, Norma 

and George, lived at 


of Arden Hills 

in the 1970’s. 

 

Long before the Rev. George 

Knieriemen, Jr. came to live at 

Presbyterian Homes of Arden 

Hills, he was an active member 

of its community in almost 

every way possible. 

He has been a pastor to residents, son 

of residents, family member of staff, 

volunteer, and donor. Now he remains 

active in the life of the community as a 

resident. 

George and his wife, Cheryl, came from New 

Jersey to Minnesota in 1968 for George to 

serve as pastor of North Como Presbyterian 

Church in Roseville, Minnesota. George 

became professionally acquainted with 

The Presbyterian Home, now Presbyterian 

Homes of Arden Hills, through his ministry 

to church members who lived there. He 

visited regularly and was occasionally 

invited to lead chapel services. 

George became more personally involved 

when his own parents, Norma and George 

Knieriemen, Sr., moved from New Jersey 

to The Presbyterian Home in 1971 to 

be closer to George and Cheryl. Many 

changes happened during their residency 

including the addition of Newton Wing 

and the McKnight Care Center. “Without 

moving they lived in three different places 

– so to speak” said George. “They lived in 

The Presbyterian Home, then Lakeview, 

then Johanna Shores. All the while they 

were still in Room #62,” He laughed 

recalling earlier names that have graced 

Presbyterian Homes of Arden Hills. As 

their needs increased, they moved to the 

McKnight Care Center. George Sr. lived to 

be 89 and Norma 90. 

Linda Knieriemen, George’s daughter 

remembers that when her grandparents 

lived at The Presbyterian Home, the 

family, who didn’t own a cabin “up north”, 

fondly nicknamed it “The Lake”. “So, I 

might say that I went up to the Lake 

to see Granny and Pop-Pop,” she said. 

Now a Presbyterian minister serving a 

congregation in Holland, Michigan, Linda 

worked with the Arden Hills culinary staff 

during her teen years. George’s other 

daughter, Marily, with whom he often 

travels abroad, is currently serving in Niger, 

Africa as Country Director for Helen Keller 

International Health. 

In the 1980’s, George’s wife Cheryl was 

employed for 11 years as Arden Hills’ 

Volunteer Coordinator. After she had 

stood by him for so long in 

the role of a pastor’s wife, 

George enjoyed being 

Cheryl’s “sidekick”. “It 

p 

George scans the daily news 

in preparation to lead the Current 

Events discussion group. 

made me feel good that she had her own 

position and profile.” When he retired, “she 

immediately recruited me,” said George. 

For 20 years now he has led the Friday 

morning Current Events discussion once 

a month. Lakeview residents gather for a 

stimulating presentation and conversation 

about what is happening locally and 

globally. “George is an asset to our 

community because he is upbeat, funloving 

and always shares a smile with staff 

members and residents alike,” said Kay 

Rehnberg, who is the current Volunteer 

Co-coordinator. 

“For years we assumed that Arden Hills 

would be our future residence,” said 

George. However their move into Lakeview 

happened very quickly after Cheryl suffered 

her first stroke in 2005. “When my parents 

made their move in the midst of a crisis for 

both of them,” said Linda, “Presbyterian 

Homes was their respite.” They knew 

many of the staff, some who went back 

to the days when George’s parents were 

residents. Linda feels that the transition 

was eased by having a familiarity with the 

location, the building, the staff and the 

ethos of the place. “In short,” she said, “the 

Knieriemens trust Presbyterian Homes.” 

Cheryl’s time as a resident was brief. After 

repeated strokes, she moved to McKnight 

Care Center while George remained in 

Lakeview. Cheryl passed away in 2007. 

After so many years and ways of 

involvement, George’s experience as 

a resident ratifies and strengthens the 

relationship built over many years. “I have 

been impressed with the philosophy and 

commitment of PHS to provide exceptional 

care,” he reflected, “and now I have my 

own experience as a resident with the way 

it’s carried out by the staff. I see it from the 

other side.” 

“I have been impressed with the philosophy 

and commitment of PHS to provide exceptional 

care, and now I have my own experience as 

a resident.” ~George Knieriemen 

He has appreciated the faith-based culture 

of PHS. “Christian values are demonstrated 

here in the way people are treated,” he 

said. George is especially pleased with 

the religious and ethnic diversity. 

“Often the staff members from Asia 

and Africa are Christian, reflecting our 

missionary heritage,” he noticed, “But 

we also have staff members who 

practice other faiths. I hope that they 

feel as welcome and comfortable as I 

know they are competent.” 

“Watching PHS grow from the Arden 

Hills campus to a 3-state region,” George 

continued, “makes me feel pretty good 

about the progress of the organization.” 

So good that he joined the Triangle of 

Caring Friends by including PHS in his 

will. He is also a member of the Lillias 

Joy Society for his generous donation to 

the annual fund. “As a pastor, most of my 

giving has been to the congregation I’ve 

served,” said George, “but I want to go 

beyond that. So PHS is another important 

organization I support at what I hope is a 

meaningful level.”

The Year 

in Review 

The aging of our population is creating 

significant needs in our nation and the states 

where Presbyterian Homes & Services serves. 

“And whatever 

you do, whether in 

word or deed, do 

it all in the name 

of the Lord Jesus, 

giving thanks to 

God the Father 

through him.” 

– Colossians 3:17 NIV 

SPRING 2010 

We are entrusted with Christ’s call to 

serve the spiritual, physical, social, and 

emotional well-being of older adults and in 

so doing, to help meet these emerging and 

unprecedented societal needs. 

Many of the older adults we serve, 

employees we partner with, and volunteers 

who make a marked difference have been 

impacted adversely by the economic 

downturn, the affects of which we 

continue to experience. More changes are 

imminent as state governments struggle 

to meet basic needs in sustainable ways, 

while facing historic budget deficits. 

Fortunately, PHS is positioned to serve 

older adults effectively within this climate 

and its challenges. 

In 2009, we adopted a new mission 

statement to focus clearly on our purpose 

in the midst of these challenges. Our 

mission is to enrich the lives of older 

adults through services and communities 

that reflect the love of God. Our vision is 

to provide more choices and opportunities 

for more older adults to live well; all within 

our values of compassion, service, people, 

stewardship, Christian ministry, and 

growth & innovation. Our mission, vision, 

and values are reflected in a number 

of ways through the stories told in this 

edition of Perspectives. 

While we have grown and been blessed 

in many ways, we have also increased our 

efforts in 2009 to be a leading provider 

in home and community-based services. 

We were among the first long-term care 

organizations in the nation to have a 

Medicare-certified home care agency and, 

in our history, we have pioneered a number 

of community-based programs. Creative 

Independence and Creative Senior Dining 

were trademarked in 2009 and we continue 

to extend our legacy of innovation. Sharon 

Klefsaas, Executive Director of Operations, 

and Bill Hagstrom, Director of Creative 

Senior Dining, will introduce you to these 

initiatives in more detail on the next page. 

We, at PHS, are called and motivated to be 

visionary and innovative. We are also called 

to provide services of all kinds for older 

adults at all income levels. Twenty percent 

of those we serve today are very low 

income, and one-third of our communities 

offer choices designed for moderateincome 

people. In addition, we will continue 

to influence policy, remain service-minded, 

and effective in a dramatically changing 

social and economic landscape. 

“We were among the first longterm 

care organization in the 

nation to have a Medicarecertified 

home care agency 

and, in our history, we have 

pioneered a number of 

community-based programs.” 

Prayerfully, we are committed to honor and 

fulfill Christ’s call to be faithful stewards 

so that we may be a blessing and make a 

meaningful difference in the lives of our 

residents and their families, our volunteers 

and staff, and the greater community.

Creative Independence In-Home Care 

Living well at home 

Medicare funded in-home services of 

Creative Independence (CI) have seen a 

year of changes. In 2009, the client base 

has grown from 75 active clients to 450 

active clients currently. We have provided 

services for 1,725 persons over the last 

12-month period. The primary area of 

growth was from the PHS assisted living 

residents. Transitional Care referrals have 

increased and our work with the Living at 

Home Block Nurse Program in the St. Paul 

area is broadening our reach. 

Creative Independence staff has also 

changed and grown. Our staff, which 

includes case managers, RN’s, LPN’s; 

physical, occupational and speech 

therapists; nutritionists, home health 

aides and home care aides, work together 

as a team to deliver care that demonstrates 

the mission and values of PHS.

2009 was a year of startup and growth 

for Creative Senior Dining. Through 

partnerships with the Metropolitan Area 

Agency on Aging and others, Creative 

Senior Dining has served almost 400,000 

meals to the low and very low-income 

seniors in the Twin Cities communities. 

In the first year, Creative Senior Dining 

focused on diversity and quality of service. 

We have transformed our 22 congregate 

meals sites from disposable kitchen 

products with lower quality food to sites 

focused on serving the best quality food 

possible on real plates with real flatware. 

We have added sites that cater to Jewish, 

Cambodian, Vietnamese, and Native 

We implemented an electronic medical 

record system, including laptop computers 

for all CI professional staff. We completed 

our transition to the new OASIS-c 

document for assessment of clients who 

pay for services through federal support. 

Creative Independence goals for the 

upcoming year include marketing and 

expansion of services to PHS residents, 

Creative Senior Dining clients, Transitional 

Care patients, local counties, the 

Carondelet Village Consortium and the 

Metro Area Living At Home Block Nurse 

Programs. We will focus on standardization 

of processes, application of more quality 

systems especially in fiscal management 

areas, a customer satisfaction survey 

process, and integrated case plans 

focused on decreasing hospitalization and 

maximized medication management. 

American seniors in the community, and 

are looking forward to adding more diverse 

locations in 2010. 

Creative Senior Dining plans to expand the 

number of seniors served this year. In 2010 

we hope to serve over 500,000 meals to 

over 5,000 seniors. To do this, we have 

added a central kitchen to produce our own 

meals and will utilize this kitchen in order to 

grow additional congregate meal locations 

and increase our Home Delivered Meals 

program. We will also be launching an Online 

Home Delivered Meal ordering program, 

which will be piloted in the Highland Park 

neighborhood of St. Paul, Minnesota.

Endowment 

Endowment funds are an important source of stability and strength, 

and will continue to grow in importance as the older adult population increases. 

Gifts placed in endowment funds are held in trust and never spent. They are invested under the advisement 

of the Finance Committee of our Board of Directors. The earnings from Endowment provide a permanent source 

of revenue for mission benevolence, mission development, and quality of life enhancements. 

To ensure its continued growth, Presbyterian Homes invests in Endowment, 10 percent of all unrestricted gifts 

greater than $10,000 and less than $200,000 and 100 percent of all unrestricted gifts greater than $200,000. 

In addition, we always honor donors’ wishes to have their gifts designated to Endowment. 

Endowment provides long range stability, solid programs, and the flexibility for innovation while allowing PHS to 

maintain its quality of care and services even during economic downturns. It allows PHS to practice philanthropy 

and fulfill mission in every program area. 

At September 30, 2009 endowment funds consisted 

of $38,937,000 that was invested as follows 

(dollar amounts in thousands): 

Cash Equivalents $985 

U.S. Government Bonds and Notes 1,152 

Equities 15,574 

Mutual Funds 12,519 

Corporate Bonds 8,211 

Other 496 

Total Endowment $38,937 

The Board distributed $1,885,000 in fiscal year 

2009. Major recipients of these funds were 

mission development, chaplaincy, Presbyterian 

Homes of Arden Hills renovation, Bloomington 

Bethany Partnership, Presbyterian Homes 

on Lake Minnetonka renovation and mission 

benevolence.
