On a sunny Wednesday afternoon, September 24th, 2025, residents, families, and staff gathered together to raise our new St. Pat’s flag – a symbol of pride and unity for our Home.
This meaningful initiative was inspired by our Residents’ Council President, Andrea Phoenix (pictured below with President and CEO, Monique Patterson), whose thoughtful suggestion was met with enthusiastic support from the entire Council.
We spoke to Andrea who told us she felt “something seems missing” while looking up at our Canada flag one morning. The idea of a St. Pat’s flag immediately came to mind and she quickly reached out to Monique who supported her in bringing the idea to life. Andrea goes on to explain that she “met with Monique to discuss getting a flag with the Home’s logo and wording. The flag was designed and we had a flag raising ceremony with Monique and myself giving speeches. After prayers, a bible reading and the Lord’s Prayer, the flag was raised with all shouting Hip Hip Hooray!“.
