From the Ceo...<br />
Dear Friends,<br />
In this August issue of Living you will see the<br />
continuum of care provided <strong>to</strong> the Saint Louis<br />
community and surrounding counties by <strong>Cardinal</strong><br />
<strong>Ritter</strong> <strong>Senior</strong> <strong>Services</strong>. We are including it is as a<br />
reminder and a resource <strong>to</strong> you <strong>to</strong> refer senior<br />
adults, their families and caregivers you may<br />
know who need some or any of the services we<br />
offer. The continuum of care provided by CRSS is<br />
available because of the generosity of the United Way of Greater<br />
Saint Louis, grants from corporations and foundations as well as<br />
generous gifts from you, our donors, our partners in ministry.<br />
During this very hot summer and unpredictable severe<br />
weather episodes, we have seen our residents and clients suffering<br />
in difficult circumstances, especially those living on their own<br />
in the community. Fear of sky high utility bills prevents many<br />
from using the air conditioning units and fans in the apartment or<br />
house and choices are made that can be life altering.<br />
Recently on a sweltering day, the power went out in a neighborhood<br />
in which one of our senior independent housing sites is<br />
located. Our staff immediately <strong>to</strong>ok our cooled buses down and<br />
got the emergency genera<strong>to</strong>r hooked up for large fans in the common<br />
areas. When power was res<strong>to</strong>red and everyone returned<br />
safely <strong>to</strong> the apartments, I began <strong>to</strong> think about the seniors in<br />
their very hot homes all around that area. Most did not have an<br />
alternative or rescue system in place – they literally sweat it out.<br />
Your support of CRSS makes it possible for us <strong>to</strong> help senior<br />
men and women across the Saint Louis area live safely and make<br />
healthy choices. People without resources are generally without<br />
choices.<br />
Thank you for helping us help those in need by joining us <strong>to</strong><br />
carry the mission of Jesus in the spirit of Beatitudes.<br />
Have wonderful days the rest of the summer! Our prayer for<br />
each of you is one of gratefulness.<br />

levels, providing stimulation and motivation,<br />
enhancing self-image, preventing<br />
premature nursing home placement and<br />
providing respite for caregivers are goals<br />

This Spring the residents of St. Agnes Apartments<br />
were awarded a grant for a Community Garden through<br />
Gateway Greening. The residents built, planted and<br />
maintain 4 raised vegetable gardens and have reaped a<br />
bountiful harvest thus far.<br />
Gateway Greening’s Community Garden program<br />
supports community gardens and urban greening projects<br />
that improve the appearance of neighborhoods,<br />
inspire, educate, and reflect the pride of the participants<br />
— often becoming community focal points and catalysts<br />
for neighborhood improvement.<br />
The purpose of the Community Garden program is <strong>to</strong><br />
support neighborhood groups committed <strong>to</strong> creating successful<br />
food-producing gardens or urban greening projects<br />
over the long-term and provide the resources and<br />
knowledge that enable them <strong>to</strong> develop food producing<br />
gardens and landscaped areas.<br />
To qualify the residents of St. Agnes had <strong>to</strong> meet the<br />
following guidelines for a Gateway Greening grant:<br />
1) The core community group should consist of at least<br />
10 adults, depending on the size and scope of the project.<br />
Most of the members<br />
should be residents of the<br />
neighborhood. Having local<br />
individuals involved ensures<br />
there is an incentive for the<br />
success of the project. The<br />
group should consist of a<br />
diverse range of people.<br />
2) The right site is important <strong>to</strong><br />
the long term success of a<br />
project<br />
3) When the group is committed<br />
and obtained a site for<br />
the project, begin a plan for<br />
the garden.
• The gift shop at Mary Queen and Mother Center is looking for<br />
volunteers <strong>to</strong> work a 4 hour shift on the first, second or fourth<br />
Saturday of the month, the first Sunday of the month, and every<br />
Monday.<br />
• Pas<strong>to</strong>ral Care at Mary Queen and Mother Center needs volunteers<br />
<strong>to</strong> help transport residents <strong>to</strong> and from chapel for Rosary<br />
and Mass daily from 9:30 <strong>to</strong> 11 a.m. (except Wednesdays) and is<br />
also looking for a volunteer organist who could play during Mass<br />
on the weekend (Saturday and Sunday)<br />
• St. William Apartments in Dardenne Prairie would LOVE <strong>to</strong><br />
have a small group of volunteers <strong>to</strong> help with some grounds<br />
cleanup and gardening this fall.<br />
• Mother of Perpetual Help and DuBourg House could both use<br />
volunteers <strong>to</strong> play card games (bridge, cribbage, poker, rummy,<br />

socialize and do current event updates from the newspaper or<br />
internet. The ideal volunteer is someone who is familiar with the<br />
assisted living environment, is very reliable and feels comfortable<br />
working independently with the residents.<br />
• DuBourg House would also like <strong>to</strong> find a volunteer that would<br />
be interested in leading light exercise classes with the residents.<br />
• Our Independent Living Apartments are searching for an empathetic<br />
volunteer <strong>to</strong> lead a gentle therapeutic exercise and movement<br />
program that helps <strong>to</strong> increase flexibility, range of motion and<br />
balance. Great music, lots of fun working with senior adults. The<br />
right volunteer will be available for three-days training for certification<br />
in February. He/she will work with an experienced instruc<strong>to</strong>r<br />
<strong>to</strong> lead sessions for two groups of ten <strong>to</strong> twenty senior adults. Each<br />
group (one beginning in January 2012 the second group in March)<br />
meets twice weekly for 18 weeks (<strong>to</strong>tal 36 sessions). Medical background<br />
is advantageous, but not a requirement.<br />
If you, or anyone you know, would like <strong>to</strong> volunteer for one of the above opportunities, please contact<br />
the development office at (314) 961-8000 ext. 347 or by email at kething<strong>to</strong>n@ccstl.org<br />
