Chaplain Services at Someren Glen

As a faith-based organization, we foster an environment where each community member can express or explore spirituality and grow in their personal faith journey. We provide worship services as well as staff chaplains who can minister to personal and spiritual needs. We pursue the highest standard of conduct, respect, and compassion in our communities. We are open to all faiths and perspectives and do not require residents and clients to exercise a certain belief.

Someren Glen Senior Living Community in Centennial, CO - chaplain services landscape

Christian Living Communities, Someren Glen’s parent organization, was founded in 1972 by a group of committed people from local Denver churches. Their vision was to create a caring community for older adults that would reflect deep Christian values of love, respect and compassion. Today Christian Living Communities still uses the word “Christian” in our name because this founding vision remains at the heart of our organization.

Those who had the original vision were from the Christian Reformed Church (CRC) and the Reformed Church in America (RCA). While we are not, and never have been, a church-run organization, we still have an affiliation with our founding faith communities.

Who Lives at Someren Glen

It has always been the mission of Someren Glen to share our faith-based values with anyone in need of our services. Therefore, we have never required that those who live in our community belong to a church, or that they believe in a certain way.

Residents come from a variety of backgrounds, and there is a great diversity of faith and practice here. There will be no pressure to change your own religious/spiritual beliefs, but we will provide opportunities for residents to enhance their own spiritual journeys.

Our services include a professional Chaplain team. Part of their training is to help meet each person’s unique spiritual/religious needs. They can assist each person, no matter their faith background, to connect to local clergy or faith community if desired.
