Established in 1903 by our founders, Dr. Albert Oetinger and Katharina Krausslach, Christ’s Home was founded as a faith based non-denominational organization caring for children. In 1923 the focus was expanded to include the senior population and Christ’s Home Retirement Community was founded. Since inception, the Retirement Community has been providing affordable, quality living for residents with a variety of needs. The mission of Christ’s Home Retirement Community is to provide a caring home for aging adults, built on Biblical principles that will meet their social, spiritual, emotional, and health needs in an atmosphere graced with love, dignity, compassion, and respect. Christ's Home Retirement Community offers independent living in attached cottages as well as on-site nursing care. While the emphasis will be on active independent living, cottage residents will have priority access to other levels of care, as they may need it. You’ll have the freedom and privacy of your own cottage home plus the security of knowing care is available when you need it.
