September
"But now in
September
the garden
has cooled,
and with it my
possessiveness.
The sun
warms my back
instead of beating
on my head ...
The harvest
has dwindled,
and I have
grown apart
from the intense
midsummer
relationship
that brought it on."
~ Robert Finch

Trivia Night Fun!
We had 6 tables of Village residents and family members competing
for the top score (as well as best decorated table and tastiest snacks).
Everyone had a ball… including this cute little guy in the black and tan
fur. He may have been the lucky mascot that gave this team the edge,
as they barely squeaked by, winning by only two correct answers.
It was nail-biting fun! And just a plain ol’ good time!
In Memory...
We would like to remember the family and friends of
residents, Virginia Osborne and Wanda Harris, and
Elsie Siemer’s granddaughter, Melanie Boelter.

Dear Residents,
In last month’s letter, I informed you about the IDOTs “Preferred Alternative”, that is, the
addition of a new roadway in the Godfrey area. In the Preferred Alternative, the new road
was proposed to come right through Village property. Due to the enormous rejection of the
proposal and protests from the local citizens of Alton and Godfrey, the project has stopped
and is now considered dead. I am sure many of you are relieved that this project has stopped.
This may have to be revisited sometime in the future, but for now, there is no need to take
any action to protest or support this project. However, if I am informed that the project has
gained interest, I will let you know.
As I mentioned to you in a recent memo, we are sad to see Sharon Loucks leave our
community to pursue other interests. Sharon has done a great job for us over the years and
will be missed. With that, we are pleased to have Gail Stucker as our new Community Life
Services Director. Gail will be working with Sharon briefly before her last day on Sept. 4th,
then Gail will return on September 14th to begin her role here at the Village. We will have a
welcoming get-together for Gail and a farewell get-together for Sharon soon, dates and time
to be announced.
I want to take this time to thank our Marketing team, Carrie Dos Santos, Marketing Director
and Carrie Cope, Residency Counselor, for their good work in reselling our available Single
Family Home at 4401 McKendree. An Open House was held August 5th and we had a contract
on this beautiful home within the hour. We are looking forward to meeting and serving our
new residents!
As always, it is a pleasure to serve you.
Sincerely,
Patrick Noonan
Corporate Operations Director

Greetings: Another month has come and gone and the weather couldn’t be better. Thank you
Lord! I am sorting things out at home, something that will go on for a while. I have attended
many “Walk to Emmaus” programs both as laity and as a preacher lady. I enjoyed all the walks I
participated in. We all received many thoughts for the day, and of course scripture and poems.
I’d like to share one of those with you this month.
What a Difference a Change Makes!
Once upon a time there was a prince who fell in love with a fair maiden. But his enemy
captured the fair maiden and held her captive in a tower. Now the prince had a plan to rescue
her, so he recruited the help of two small animals to send a message to the maiden.
First there was Claude Caterpillar. Claude was a nice guy and he didn’t mind helping fair
maidens in distress. But Claude was kind of a crusty old character. You might wonder, did he get
up on the wrong side of the bed? Maybe he has a migraine headache or something. Anyway, the
prince gave him the message, and he started inching along toward the tower. Being a fat little
caterpillar, he had to work hard to get there, even sweat a bit. He thought to himself, wouldn’t
you know it, the sun would have to be shining today! Just then the weather began to change.
Clouds moved in and little drops started coming down all around him. He grumbled, “Rain, of all
things. And I just had this suit cleaned.” But Claude wasn’t a quitter. He made it to the tower and
searched for a way up. A vine growing along one side was the obvious answer. Inch by inch, up
the vine Claude went, only to discover that it was a climbing rose bush. All the way up you could
hear, “Ouch! Ouch! Ouch!” When he finally reached the window, he heaved himself onto the
ledge and said to the fair maiden, “Hey, Lady! Come here! Are you the maiden in distress?” She
nodded as she looked down at this sweaty, muddy little caterpillar. Claude gave her the onceover and said, “You’re kidding. You mean I came all the way up here for the likes of you? I don’t
know what the prince sees in you. He sent me with a message, and you wouldn’t believe how
hard it was for me to get here. His message was: ‘Get Ready.’ He’s coming to get you. Five
o’clock sharp! Understand? All right! Good-bye!” And off went Claude.
Next the prince sent Barney Butterfly. Barney was not so sure of himself with the rain and
wind, but he said he would try. His soft wings lifted him gracefully into the air. He struggled with
all his might against the wind as it blew him back and forth. Just as he was about to reach the
window, a bird swooped down and nearly ate him alive. After a frantic chase, Barney flew inside
the window beyond the bird’s snapping beak. He flew about the room until the maiden noticed
him. She reached out her hand, and he landed softly on her finger. She brought him close as he
relayed the Prince’s message: “Lovely and favored maiden, the prince loves you dearly. At the
sound of his voice, jump from the window and into his arms”. The maiden replied, “Thank you,
beautiful butterfly. You are very sweet. But tell me, why did the caterpillar bring the good news
in such a nasty manner? He seemed so rude and rough.”
The butterfly replied, “Oh, you mean Claude? Well that’s just Claude. I used to be that way,
too, until I was transformed!”
Has transformation happened to you or are you still waiting? I will be looking for you in
the chapel and maybe transformation can still happen. See you in the Chapel. Chaplain Judy

Greetings Everyone,
There is an old story about a woman who witnessed a gentleman drawing some black dots on
a paper. She looked upon them and studied them but could not make sense of what they
were supposed to be as they were irregular in the way they were assembled and appeared to
have no particular order.
The artist then added a few lines, put in a few rests, placed a clef sign at the beginning, and
the woman discovered that the dots that had appeared to be random and without order were
actually musical notes! And upon singing the notes one at a time according to the musical
staff, she recognized the melody to a wonderful old hymn, “Praise God From Whom All
Blessings Flow”.
We all have black dots and black spots in our lives from time to time and may have a good
deal of difficulty when we try to make sense of it all. But as we choose to look at these “dots”
as having a purpose, we find that they are actually blessings in disguise. Allow me to pass on
a poem that I find great comfort in myself on occasion:
“Would we know that the major chords were sweet,
If there were no minor key?
Would the painter’s work be fair to our eyes,
Without shade on land or sea?
Would we know the meaning of happiness,
Would we feel that the day was bright,
If we’d never known what it was to grieve,
Nor gazed on the dark of night?”
Are you going through an uninvited and difficult time these days, and struggling with the
“how” or “why” of it? Many individuals owe the grandeur of their lives to their tremendous
difficulties. So if you are struggling today with circumstances and problems that have you
discouraged, remember, your life may be writing a lovely song in the process, and may be
using this very set of circumstances to create a beautiful song for you to sing (and share with
others who may be struggling somewhere along their way).
Watch for the hidden blessings along your path and be patient as the process that ushered
them in also turns them into music for you! Just because the dots are black, doesn’t mean
there isn’t a song hidden in the midst of them! You see, when the musician presses the black
keys on the great organ, the music is as sweet as when he touches the white ones, but in
order to get the capacity of the instrument, he must touch them all.
Blessings to All,
Dee

A Note From Tom Osborne, Village Resident
I want to express my appreciation to everyone, management, staff and residents, for your
prayers and support during Gini’s illness.
Thank you for your expressions of sympathy and love at her death.
Thank you for all the cards and charitable contributions made in her name.
You made it a lot easier.
You are truly family!
Tom Osborne
A Note From Sharon Loucks, Director of Resident Services
As I move in a new direction in my life, I wanted to take this opportunity to say thank you to
all of you, Village residents and my coworkers.
I can’t express how much I have learned from you, the seniors and residents of the Village.
You have taught me so much about life, and through your friendship and love, I have grown
in ways that I couldn’t have imagined before. It is because of you that I have found myself in
this place, a place where I can finally become a healer. You’ve opened my heart, and allowed
me to expose my true self, wounds and all, accepting me just as I am. What a wonderful
affirmation that has been. What more can we hope for than to be accepted for who we are,
and loved deeply and truly just as we are. As I progress through the Massage Therapy
Program at the Healing Arts Center, you will all be in my heart, helping me move forward,
and forever a part of me.
And to my coworkers, your friendship has meant everything to me. You’ve loved and supported
me through many changes, through highs and lows, sorrows and joys. You let me be me.
That’s what I love, we share our true selves with each other. I cherish you, and carry you with me
always. You are all a bit of magic in my being...like pixie dust. You give me wings.
Hoping to see you again, and love always,
Sharon

“I am certain that I never did grow in grace one-half so much anywhere as I have upon the
bed of pain.”
-Charles Spurgeon
I am so ready to welcome God’s season of autumn - how about you? I think that we are very
blessed to live in an area of the country where we can experience all of the seasons, although
sometimes our weather can get a bit extreme. Yesterday I mentioned to someone that fall
was my favorite time of the year, and she replied, “Not mine. Everything is dying.” I had to
ponder that for awhile. The season of fall is a dying process. The trees, flowers and grass
prepare for the cold of winter. The leaves change to beautiful, striking colors - but then turn
brown and brittle and fall from the trees. But God, in the middle of this process does
demonstrate His creativeness by giving us a brilliant explosion of color in the process; and not
only color, but the crisp air and even fall smells, such as burning leaves and bonfires, and fresh
baked goods.
Like nature, we also have those “fall” seasons of life. One of them is something that I have
recently seen people struggle with, and that is chronic pain.
Chronic pain refers to pain that does not improve with time. It can affect any part of the body,
or involve many regions of the body at the same time. Pain is the body’s alarm system. Pain
can come in many ways and can be described as burning, stabbing, dull, sharp, or even
throbbing. One thing we must remember about pain is that it cannot be measured. No test or
device can measure how much anyone hurts. That is why many doctors agree that “pain is
what the patient says.” Because of chronic pain, many people develop difficulty functioning in
their day to day activities, to the point of having a diminished quality of life.
There are many ways that the doctor and patient can work together to relieve chronic pain, or
at least make it more manageable.
Medication Management: When used properly, some medications can reduce pain with limited side effects. Analgesics are the mainstay for pain management. Aspirin, Tylenol, and a
group of drugs called NSAID’s are the initial medications attempted. NSAID’s include ibuprofen
(Motrin), naproxen (Aleve) and celecoxib (Celebrex). Opioid medications are used to treat
moderate to severe pain and can include codeine, fentanyl, hydrocodone, hydromorphone,
and morphine to name a few. Opioids can have side effects such as insomnia, stomach upset,
or constipation. Other medications used to treat chronic pain can include antidepressants,
SEPTEMBER
THE VILLAGER
PAGE 11
and anxiolytics to improve mood and decrease the anxiety associated with chronic pain.
Alternative Methods: Sometimes called “complementary therapies”, alternative methods
have been successful in helping manage chronic pain. They include acupuncture, deep tissue
massage, hypnosis, meditation, (don’t forget the power of prayer!) and biofeedback. These
therapies can often help the person to relax and decrease tension, which can lead to a
decrease in pain.
Physical Therapy and Occupational Therapy: Physical therapy can assist with proper body
mechanics, posture and strengthening and stretching. P.T. will focus on increasing stamina and
functioning to help with daily activities. Occupational therapy will focus on what occupies
your “time” during the day. The goal of O.T. will focus on creating balance between work,
self-care and leisure activities.
Self Help Tips: There are many things that you can do to assist with the process of pain
management. Exercise regularly - but start slow and easy and with your doctor’s permission.
Stay flexible - Yoga can be a great way to become more flexible and decrease tension. Lose
weight - extra weight strains joints, muscles, and your back. Learn how to lift, sit and stand
correctly - posture is important! Work with your doctor - always be honest about your pain!
Some people are afraid to tell the doctor for fear of looking as if they are weak or “drug
seeking”. This can block progress towards relieving the pain. Work with a Pain Specialist - A
pain specialist attempts to restore patients to their normal day-to-day activities and is trained
to treat the whole person, not just the pain.
The key is to be educated and responsible. It may take some time to find the best balance
between what your goals are and the treatment to reach them. Remember that in today’s
world of modern medicine, you have a right to adequate and effective pain relief. Work
closely with your doctor, the healthcare team and a pain specialist if needed. Also include
your family and friends, and pastoral care for support.
We in this life journey have our “fall” seasons. God knew we would experience these. But I
have witnessed many “fall” journeys, and one thing I have noticed is that God’s magnificence
can be seen in the midst of them. His love, grace and mercy shine through others that He has
placed on our path - at just the right time. God is our healer, our hope, and life giver - but
most important, our season changer! Rest in that during your season changes in life!
Blessings,
Eileen
“I am not a theologian or a scholar, but I am very aware of the fact that pain is necessary to all
of us. In my own life, I think I can honestly say that out of the deepest pain has come the
strongest conviction of the presence of God and the love of God”. ~ Elizabeth Elliot

Well hello September!!!! When did you sneak up on us? Well it’s official, it is school days
again and the buses are rolling!!
We’ve been doing some Rocking and Rolling of our own in the Marketing
Department!! Another home sold!! That is 3 for the year!! Nancy Price
will be moving in as soon as the home is ready!
Please take some time to welcome our new residents to the Community!! Recent additions
include: Katherine Batuello (Villas) and Sue and Harlan Nash (Villas). We are thrilled to have
you as our new residents!! Welcome!!!
Please remember the Marketing Department needs your referrals! Residents that refer their
friends to United Methodist Village market rate apartments and patio villas receive $500.00
off a month’s rent as does the friend they referred!
In order to receive the $500.00 referral fee, you must be the reason the resident is moving
into The Village. In other words, you must come tell us ahead of time that you have a friend
that is interested or have your friend tell us that you referred them. Seeing us touring
someone you know does not necessarily result in a referral fee.
Have a Happy and Safe Labor Day,
