Butterfly Release and Sitewide Memorial – June 14, 2024 – CLICK TO PURCHASE A BUTTERFLY

We are looking forward to our annual Butterfly Release at 2:30 pm on June 14, 2024.

Residents and families purchase butterflies – some to release for a joyful experience – and some to release in honour of a loved one.

The Butterfly Release follows a Sitewide Memorial service honouring residents who passed away between June 1, 2023 and May 31, 2024.

Parking on the Menno Place campus will be free on Friday, June 14th for this event. There will be additional parking available down the street at Peace Lutheran Church and Mill Lake Church (1.5 blocks away at the corner of Marshall Rd & Ware St).

A shuttle service will run approximately every 20 minutes from Peace Lutheran Church beginning at 1:20pm for those attending the Butterfly Release. The shuttle will run until the program begins at 2:30 and will return to the church parking lot after the event at 3:30.

Purchase a butterfly for your loved one or for a resident to bring them joy! CLICK HERE TO PURCHASE

The origins of this carol date to medieval times. The Latin verses were discovered in the mid 1800s by an English minister named John Mason Neale, who translated and wove them together to produce “O Come, O Come, Emmanuel.” Neale is also the author of the carol, “Good King Wenceslas,” and the Palm Sunday hymn, “All Glory, Laud, and Honor.” Find out more about this poet, scholar, and director of a home for the elderly.
