The November issue of "The Visioneer," a publication promoting the Green House Project of Mennonite Home Communites of Ohio, is now posted on The Icon.

The issue's focus is the Oct. 14 dedication fo the Green Houses.

Mennonite Home Communities of Ohio (MHCO) has honored two individuals with the naming of its two new Green House Homes. The two homes were dedication on Oct. 14.

One home is called “Betty House,” named for the late Betty Bash. The second is “Frieda House,” named for the late Frieda Basinger.

Each home will provide licensed nursing care for 10 residents. It is part of MHCO’s vision to “transform” the nursing care environment by providing licensed nursing care in a home rather than an institution.

Many events take place at Mennonite Memorial Home during November. Here's the November MMH calendar. You may view and print it by opening the attachment at the bottom of this story.
