As the Seasons Change

As we have said farewell to our dear Executive Director, Diane Yoder, and transition into a new chapter of leadership, we carry on her legacy of looking toward the future with promise and hope! One phrase that has been especially present for me in this past month of transition has been this...

"God remains faithful in every change."


I am thankful every day for the ways in which I see God being faithful in our Goldensun community. Our members are happy and healthy and are pursuing activities that bring them fulfillment and joy. Our staff come to work every day with loving hearts and caring spirits. Our families and community members provide support in so many ways. We are blessed!

We currently have a transition leadership team in place to continue carrying forward the mission of Goldensun, while also providing time for discernment of future position needs.

We are gearing up for a fun and busy summer at Goldensun with member vacations, trips to camp, Special Olympics swimming, and many pool days to look forward to!

Thank you for your continued prayer and support for Goldensun.

Blessings to you,

Kristin Yoder, Director

Sharing the Blessing
Goldensun has recently partnered with Hospitality Services Center to use the Goldensun bus to serve our wider community.

Volunteer drivers from Trinity Mennonite Church use the bus on Sunday mornings to pick up residents of Glencroft Retirement Center who need transportation in order to attend Sunday morning services at Trinity.
A Glimpse into the Life at Goldensun
One goal of Goldensun is to support independent living skills of our members. Examples of this include hosting a holiday BBQ, preparing meals and helping to care for our vehicles.
