Singing at The Village
Join us for singing at The Village (assisted living & memory care home)! Our elders love listening to music; this is a fantastic way to connect with them! All music will be provided, and everyone is welcome. (Please note: no singing talent required. We play the songs with words and sing along! No pressure, lots of fun!)
Call or email to sign up or learn more 253-884-9814, volunteers@themustardseedproject.org.

This is a one-hour, interactive lecture designed specifically for seniors. It’s engaging, informative, and there are no physical skills involved—so no one has to worry about doing anything outside their comfort zone.
Our goal is to help seniors feel safer, more confident, and empowered in their everyday lives.
What you will learn:
• Situational awareness
• How criminals choose their targets
• Simple strategies to avoid becoming a victim
This is a FREE event. Thursday, September 4th, 2:00pm-3:00pm. Call 253-884-9814 to reserve your spot.

Care Cafe
We are reimagining our Caregiver Support Group and transforming it into Care Cafe. Our hope is that more caregivers will be able to attend Care Cafe, as those they are caring for, family, and friends are all welcome to attend. Care Cafe will be a relaxed and inclusive space for everyone.
On the third Monday of each month at 2:00 pm (same time as the previous Caregiver Support Group), the Mustard Seed Cafe will be a welcoming, informal gathering place for caregivers and their loved ones to socialize, share experiences, and connect with others in a supportive environment. Care Cafe will offer companionship and reduce the isolation that often comes with caregiving.
Join us at the first Care Cafe on Monday, September 15th, to connect with others on a similar journey over a cup of coffee or tea. We will have a movie playing as well as cards, games, and puzzles available to make the cafe as comfortable as possible for everyone.
