At the midpoint of this year, I still have 

some serious concerns about the big 

picture of our economy, but honestly, I 

cannot do much about that big picture. 

What excites me are those things at 

Magnolia Manor over which we do have 

some control and the new things we are 

doing to better serve our residents. 

First of all, we are seeing positive results 

from the many difficult decisions made 

over the last year and a half. Financials 

have improved as a result of strict budget 

management measures. It is obvious, 

however, that we cannot do all that we 

need to do solely through cost controls. 

In addition to effective budget management, 

we are seeing very positive census 

results on all the campuses where we 

made administrative leadership changes. 

While change is never easy, the results we 

are seeing reveal the effectiveness of our 

current leadership team, and I am proud 

of the work the whole team is doing. 

Secondly, I am excited about new and 

creative measures we are taking to change 

the way we offer our services to older adults. 

In Buena Vista, we have begun a new Adult 

Day Health Program. This program offers 

skilled nursing care for seniors Monday 

through Friday from 8:00 am until 5:00 

pm. The program makes use of existing 

Magnolia Manor facilities and staff to 

support families who need assistance in 

caring for an adult loved one but who 

are not ready for admission to a nursing 

home. This pilot program will be monitored 

and hopefully implemented at 

other campuses. 

In Americus and Columbus, we have 

remodeled and revamped our physical 

rehabilitation programs, grouping residents 

with similar short-term rehabilitation 

needs and goals together. We have found 

the response to this new approach to be 

very positive. One of the results has been 

a great improvement in Medicare census 

in our skilled nursing centers. 

One final reason for the positive excitement 

I feel in what we are doing is our 

chaplaincy program. Our chaplaincy 

program for residents is unmatched in 

its size and in its quality. At the South 

“Focus on the Positive!” 

Georgia Annual Conference in Tifton, 

the introduction of extension ministers 

made it obvious that Magnolia Manor 

has the greatest personnel commitment 

to chaplaincy ministry of any agency in 

the conference. In fact, our number 

of chaplains exceeds the number of 

chaplains appointed to all the other 

agencies combined! It speaks not only 

to the quality of how we seek to serve 

our residents but also to the scale on 

which we are working. 

In difficult times, it is easy to focus on 

the negative and see only the obstacles. 

However, our leadership team, our creative 

new programs and the excellence of care 

given by our staff cause me to focus on the 

positive and to see the many opportunities 

for Magnolia Manor to expand and enhance 

the care we offer to seniors across the state. 

I hope this all excites our donor partners, 

too. Your continued support is essential 

to our ability to take advantage of the 

opportunities before us.

Good Samaritan 

Reverend Robert Beckum, 

Sr. Vice President of Church 

Relations and Development 

The League of the Good Samaritan 

is the charitable arm of Magnolia 

Manor, the official older adult ministry 

of the South Georgia Annual Conference. 

The League exists because our founders 

promised that no one, having chosen 

to come to Magnolia Manor, would 

ever have to leave when the ability to 

pay for needed care ended. 

Despite the best of plans, sometimes 

money runs low. Care costs increase. 

The retirement years, instead of being 

a reward for years of service to family, 

employer and community, can be a 

troubling time. 

How The League Helps 

At these times the League of the Good 

Samaritan helps. Residents are asked 

to pay all that they can, keeping a 

small reserve for personal spending. 

Government monies are sought. And 

the difference is paid with League dollars. 

Where the Money Comes From 

Nearly 100 percent of League funds 

come from people like you — Good 

Samaritans who care about South 

Georgia’s older adults — people who 

want seniors to have the care they 

need, in a comfortable and safe environment 

filled with Christian values 

and good friends. 

Shortfalls in the money raised by 

the League of the Good Samaritan 

must be drawn from the Magnolia 

Manor operating budget, diverting 

funds from other critical programs. 

Many older adults rely on your 

generosity to have the care they 

need in their golden years. 

Where the Money Goes 

Because League dollars are awarded 

on an individual basis, monies required 

vary greatly. Some recipients need 

only a few dollars to make ends meet. 

Others require a larger award. 

On average, a single person drawing 

from the League requires $810 a month. 

Your gift of $35, $50, $100, $2,000 or 

more makes a tremendous difference 

in the life of an older adult. 

Donations may be made in honor 

of or in memory of a special person 

or group. Our staff will send a notice 

of the gift to the honoree, keeping the 

amount private. It’s a thoughtful way 

to let your gift give twice. 

Answering Christ’s Call 

Christ entreated us to love one another 

as we love ourselves. Giving to the 

League is a good way to give your love. 

The parable of the Good Samaritan 

outlines a lesson of giving without 

reservation. In the parable, the Samaritan 

assists the troubled traveler, even paying 

for his lodging. 

Please join the League of the Good 

Samaritan and help pay for the 

lodging of one who has traveled 

life’s road before you.

Spiritual Care at Magnolia Manor 

From our very beginning in 1963, 

Magnolia Manor has always had a 

Methodist minister assigned as a chaplain 

for our residents. Mark Todd, President 

and CEO of Magnolia Manor, says, 

“The chaplains on our staff, and the 

services they provide, help to remind us 

who we are and what we are all about as 

an organization in our care of senior adults.” 

Over the last six years, Todd has made 

a major commitment to expanding 

chaplaincy services to keep up with 

Magnolia Manor’s growth. Currently, 

Magnolia Manor has six United Methodist 

chaplains (three full-time and three parttime) 

who care for residents and staff at 

all eight campuses of Magnolia Manor. 

Rev. Dennis Stalvey is the Senior Chaplain whose task it is to supervise all other 

chaplains and oversee the Manor’s program of spiritual care. All full-time chaplains 

have completed endorsement training programs and are endorsed by the United 

Methodist Church and the American Association of Pastoral Counselors indicating 

the chaplaincy program’s commitment to excellence and best practices. 

Rev. Joy Wilson, an Assistant Chaplain for the Americus Campus, says that the 

relationships with the residents are the greatest rewards of her work. “I love 

meeting the residents and doing something to encourage them and strengthen 

their faith,” Wilson says. Joy’s mother is a resident at Magnolia Manor and she 

says, “I try to care for each resident just as I want my mother cared for.” The 

residents all pick up on Joy’s radiance and enthusiasm. 

Rev. John Brodess served as the only Magnolia Manor chaplain from 1993 until 

his retirement in 2005. Now, in retirement John continues to serve as an Assistant 

Chaplain. John says, “I love being able to comfort our residents in times of transition 

and in times of grief, and I find it most meaningful to feel that I can contribute 

some measure of comfort and faith by my presence with our residents.” 

Rev. Cindy Bennett serves as an Assistant Chaplain for the Columbus Campus 

of Magnolia Manor. Cindy says, “Ministering with our residents, staff and family 

members is a privilege and a daily challenge.” Cindy has served the Columbus 

Campus for three years now and feels that it is an honor to represent the 

United Methodist Church in such a lifegiving way. 

Rev. Madison Morgan is an Assistant Chaplain for the Richmond Hill Campus. 

Madison says, “It is a joy to serve senior adults. I enjoy spending time with them 

and they help me live a more productive life.” Madison reflected back and said, 

“If I had known the joy that I was going to experience in chaplaincy like this, I 

would have been doing this a long time ago.” 

Rev. James Boyd says, as Assistant Chaplain for St. Simons and St. Marys of 

Magnolia Manor, “I have gained fresh insight to the needs and concerns of older 

adults and I am grateful to be a part of their lives in this great ministry.” James 

has been in the ministry for almost 52 years and he says, “There is just something 

special about serving older adults.” 

Chaplains at Magnolia Manor do not 

act alone. All chaplains are part of a team 

of staff members working together to 

meet the spiritual, social, physical and 

emotional needs of our residents. We 

are always working, Stalvey said, to 

“Help people discover real community.” 

Magnolia Manor believes in, “Creating 

caring communities for senior adults.” 

All chaplains agree that the most meaningful 

part of their work is the privilege 

of participation in a vital residential 

community, one that is open, welcoming, 

and grounded in faith.

ANNUAL 

CONFERENCE 

—IN TIFTON— 

June 6–9, 2010 

At right, the ladies from Tifton First UMC graciously serve the crowd Dip-N-Dots for dessert._ 

Below right, conference attendees enjoy Bar-b-que and live music. 

The South Georgia Annual Conference 

in Tifton was a great time of fellowship 

for United Methodists. The first day 

of conference business always ends 

with The Methodist Home Bar-b-que 

and Magnolia Manor Dip-N-Dots. As 

usual the Dip-N-Dots were a huge hit. 

One emphasis of this year’s 

conference was, “A Healthier Me.” 

Delegates had numerous options 

for enhancing efforts for improved 

health. Andrea Walker, Director of 

Donor Communications, led the largest 

of the health emphasis workshops. 

Her workshop on better nutrition 

was entitled, “Eat Up, Slim Down.” 

Pictured above, Andrea Walker, Director of Donor Communications, is 

ready to lead her nutrition workshop, “Eat Up, Slim Down.”

year with thirty-nine years of service. 


Creative Writing 

The Creative Writing Class began 

as part of the Renaissance Program at 

Magnolia Manor, Richmond Hill in 

2005. It proved to be a great success 

with residents bringing in poems and 

memoirs, sitting down and swapping 

stories to their heart’s content. 

at Richmond Hill 

Stories are shared, writing is read 

aloud, and memories become vivid 

once again. Joan Smith, a retired 

English teacher, facilitates the class 

along with her husband, Dan. Below 

is a poem written by resident, 

Helen Eisenberg. 

Lord, Speak to Me 

Father God, speak to me what you would say, 

Speak not too boldly, less I faint from fear, 

Tell me again that you love me, 

That to you I am very dear. 

Thank you for those words, 

So palpable to my spirit. 

Now what would you have me do? 

Nothing? Did I hear you say “Nothing!” 

Pictured left to right, front row: Betty Hudson, Helen Szymd, Miriam 

Moore, and Joshua Lee. On the back row: Joan Smith, Bill Moore, 

and Joan’s husband, Dan Smith. 

Did I hear you say: “Be!” 

What shall I be? 

“Be like I am.” 

You are love, Can I like thee? 

Only if you help me can I care. 

Can I look into a neighbor’s eyes and care? 

What causes that harried look, that evasive eye? 

Are your life painful? I pause in prayer. 

A son is going off to battle, 

A daughter runs away, 

A mother’s mind is slipping, 

Oh, what can I helpful say? 

Creative Writing teacher, Joan Smith, holds a book 

written by Joshua Lee. 


Our God is all around us. 

He whispers low to me. 

He puts His arms around you 

He says He is a friend to thee. 

Instill into my brain, my thoughts, my heart, 

Love, sweet kind love, truthful, free. 

Unshackle my mind from hatred. 

I would love to be like Thee. 

— Helen Eisenberg

NATIONAL DAY OF 

Prayer 

Residents of Magnolia Manor in 

Macon gathered for a special program 

on the National Day of Prayer. After 

a brief devotion and prayers for our 

nation, residents enjoyed a wonderful 

musical program performed by members 

of the Middle Georgia Home School 

Chorus. The chorus, which meets for 

practice once a week, provides musical 

enrichment for home schooled students 

ages 10 to 18 

throughout the 

Middle Georgia 

area. Students 

shared both choral numbers 

and instrumental performances. 

The instrumental performances 

included violin, piano and guitar 

with several of the students sharing 

original compositions.

MOULTRIE RESIDENTS 

Mentoring Students 

Residents from Magnolia Manor 

South have been enjoying time in the 

classroom setting through mentoring 

and enriching the academic progress 

of Sunset Elementary School students. 

Now, nearly three years later, the 

volunteer program has become more 

rewarding than anyone ever imagined. 

Residents say that their time with the 

students are very rewarding. “Seeing 

the look on the children’s faces when 

we visit is indescribable.” Because the 

program has been so successful, visits 

have increased from once-a-week to 

twice-a-week with each visit lasting 

nearly an hour. 

Retired mothers and teachers 

residing on-campus at Magnolia 

Manor South have had the opportunity 

to rekindle a deep-rooted passion for 

children and learning through this 

mentoring program. 

Choir Kicks off Tour at Magnolia Manor 

Americus First United 

Methodist youth choir performed 

for the residents at Magnolia 

Manor of Americus. The choir 

tour began at Magnolia Manor 

and then went on to perform 

at Calvary Children’s Home 

in Atlanta. The choir enjoyed 

interacting with the residents 

at Magnolia Manor to kick 

off their trip.

Spring Time at 

St. Simons Magnolia Manor residents 

have been beautifying their campus! 

Mr. Shearouse, pictured above with 

his daughter Mrs. Pease and Sadie, is 

excited about being able to get back 

out and “get in the dirt!” 

The arrival of Spring is always 

beautiful in the Golden Isles when the 

azaleas burst into bloom and individuals 

emerge from their homes to enjoy 

the coastal breezes and invigorating 

sunshine. Many get involved in this 

reawakening by planting seasonal 

flowers, fruits, and vegetables, creating 

a kaleidoscope of color. 

Residents of Magnolia Manor of 

St. Simons are certainly no different 

as they enjoyed a pre-Easter treat with 

the recent blooming of beautiful tulips 

planted by the Sea Oats Garden Club. 

Club member Sandra Hochwald 

commented, “We wanted to provide 

an expression of the beauty of the 

new season for the Residents and 

hardy tulips seemed the appropriate 

choice. They’re often seen blooming up 

through the snow, a sign of renewed 

life after the often bleak days of winter!” 

The brilliant canary yellow blooms 

offered a stark contrast against the 

dark greenery just beginning to regain 

its brilliance. 

Our sincere thanks goes to Glynn 

Landscaping for donating the gravel 

and potting soil for the project and to 

Ace Hardware who offered their bedding 

plants at buy-one-get-one-free! 

Above, Faye Young, an active member in Magnolia 

Manor’s Red Hat Society, also enjoys gardening. 

And when all the planting at the Nursing 

and Rehab Center was finished, Mrs. 

Helen Brinkos, pictured above, took a 

seat on a memorial bench, flashed a 

huge smile, patted her legs playfully, 

and commented, “It’s all just so pretty 

out here—and everyone is just so nice!” 

Pictured above, to the right, Mr. Claude McGahee, well 

known especially in his native McIntosh County for his 

green thumb gift, is now totally back in his element. 

Preparing the soil and the planting of seeds had to be 

“just so” and residents are now anxiously awaiting the 

crop of fresh vegetables he is tending. 

Pictured above are residents, George Anderson 

and Fred Pruitt. 



Americus Tea Dance 

A group of residents from Magnolia 

Manor gathered one afternoon for a 

Tea Dance downtown Americus at the 

Nancy Jones School of Dance. Nancy 

Jones along with Ruth Jones and several 

of her friends hosted this lovely event. 

The Magnolia Manor residents had 

a great time dressing up and showing off 

their dancing moves. They danced to 

all types of music including fast beat 

music, slow, romantic music, and even 

the hokey pokey! 

Everyone enjoyed finger foods, 

socializing, listening to lively music, 

and dancing. What a fun way to 

bring in the Spring! 

Pictured above, Jean & Jim Stimpson 

enjoying themselves dancing. 

Pictured above are Ruth Jones and Betty Jones.

NOMADS Serving 

at Richmond Hill 

Each year the Magnolia Manor 

Campus inRichmond Hill has been 

fortunate enough to acquire some of 

the most skilled volunteers through a 

Christian ministry known as NOMADS 

which stands for Nomads On a Mission 

Active in Divine Service. NOMADS 

is a mission outreach ministry of the 

United Methodist Church through 

the General Board of Global Ministries. 

The NOMADS program offers persons 

with recreational vehicles the opportunity 

to share their time and skills in 

United Methodist projects, including 

churches, camps, mission agencies, 

disaster areas and local neighborhoods. 

Four couples, Lee & Bill Miller, Robbie 

& Ted Johndrow, Donna & Don 

Hoff, and Joyce & David Mills along 

with Robert Smith made up the team 

of NOMADS selected to help the 

Richmond Hill campus. Administrator, 

Rich DeLong along with his staff 

and the residents look forward to 

this group coming each year not only 

because of what they do, but because 

of who they are. 

“The NOMADS not only bring their 

skilled hands and hearts of labor to 

Magnolia Manor each year…. they 

continue to foster a caring relationship 

with both our staff and residents. 

It’s really not about the ‘free work’ 

that they provide — it’s more about 

making a connection with people 

and a positive change in the lives of 

many for His sake, and in His name,” 

says Rich DeLong. 

Among the tasks accomplished were 

painting apartments, replacing ceiling 

tiles, repairing potholes in the 

parking lot, and striping the parking 

lots. “The list goes on and on… the 

NOMADS get more done in 3 weeks 

than we could in an entire year,” says 

Jennifer Franks.

Americus Residents Help 

Every second Saturday in May, 

letter carriers in more than 10,000 

cities and towns across America 

deliver much more than mail when 

they walk and drive along their postal 

routes. They also collect the goodness 

and compassion of their postal 

customers who participate in the NALC 

Stamp Out Hunger National Food 

Drive — the largest one-day food drive 

in the nation and probably the world. 

Led by letter carriers represented 

by the National Association of Letter 

Carriers (AFLCIO), with the help 

of rural letter carriers, other postal 

employees and numerous volunteers, 

the drive has resulted in delivery of 

nearly one billion pounds of donations 

to community food banks and pantries 

over the past 17 years. 

Carriers collect non-perishable food 

donations left by mailboxes and in 

post offices and deliver them to local 

community food banks, pantries and 

shelters. Nearly 1,500 local NALC 

branches in all 50 states are involved 

in the drive. 

Many Magnolia Manor residents 

from the Americus campus have saved 

canned goods to be able to “give back” 

to others they say. It is really neat to 

see the residents coming together to 

contribute to a good cause such as 

this food drive. 

The mail carrier, Gloria Harltley, 

for the Magnolia Manor of Americus 

says, “Every year, the Magnolia Manor 

independent residents are major 

participants in the USPS Stamp Out 

Hunger food drive.” Gloria’s route 

gets the most donations in town, and 

our residents are a big part of that. 

She had already emptied her truck 

once, and it was filled up again just 

from her stop at the Manor. She said, 

“It’s so much fun coming here— it’s 

like an Easter egg hunt… I love to see
