  • The Highlights of the Week 4/5/26

    ​

    Sunday – I was able to attend Mass at Saint Luke Catholic Church in Irving, Texas. The Altar was very beautifully decorated. In the area around the Altar were flowers and the tomb with the Resurrected Jesus standing in front of the tomb.

    Here at WFV there was a Church Service. We received a box lunch for dinner so the staff could leave by 2:30 and be with their families.

    Monday – Doctor’s Appointments all day. A midday Church Service. A supper outing at Grimaldis.

    Tuesday – Errands at 9 AM and 1 PM. Birthday Card Signing for those having birthdays in May.

    Wednesday – Doctor’s Appointments all day. Bible study. A lunch outing to Gimaldes. Craft Meeting. Classy Classical, Bingo, and an evening Church Service.

    Thursday – Birthday Social. Residents Council Meeting.

    Friday – Almas Cafe Outing. A trip to Dollar.Doctor’s Appointments, Tree. Brownie Sundaes. Monthly Planning Meeting. New Residents Orientation and Movie Night.

    Saturday – Hope Meeting.

    Starting Wednesday, I was quarantined, so I am only telling what was scheduled. One of my close neighbors made sure we received the goodies from the Social events. What a family we have here at WFV.

    As for myself I started publishing short Bible Verse videos, which received quite a few views. I post them on YouTube, Facebook, Tiktok, linkedin, and Instagram. I also post on YouTube where, with some searching I can see how many views they get. Many are getting over 100 views. One received over 200 views. The count in views was over 400 for the first 48 hours. Hopefully a good start

    Even so it was a packed week at West Fork Village. A Place Where Seniors Thrive.
