Patterns of Life
At the Saint Alphonsus Family Maternity Center, we think
the arrival of a baby is the most joyous occasion of all. It's something proud parents, friends
and family feel like sharing. That's why we've created the Patterns
of Life, a tile quilt wall, designed by artist Steve Hanks. For
a gift of $100, the child's name and birth date will be permanently listed
on the Patterns of Life wall. In addition, a congratulatory
card informing the parents of the gift and a keepsake certificate will be sent
to the family.
Proceeds from the Patterns of Life wall are used to provide educational resources to the staff of the Family Maternity Center.
Wind Chime
Saint Alphonsus has created a Wind Chime to honor and memorialize friends and loved ones. Names are engraved on plaques to recognize family and friends with cumulative gifts of $100 or more received in their memory or honor. The Wind Chime is located along the main entrance to Saint Alphonsus for all patients and visitors to see while enjoying the melody of the chimes.

more about the Reflection of Life Funds.
In
2005, the Saint Alphonsus Foundation developed a unique honor and memorial
giving program called Reflection of Life Funds. The non-endowed funds can be
set up to honor someone special, celebrate a special moment or remember someone
who is no longer with us. Gifts donated to the Funds help Saint Alphonsus continue
to provide high-quality, compassionate care, advanced medical technologies,
and a healing place for the body, mind and spirit.

Michael Sculpture
The
Michael Sculpture fountain was originally dedicated as an asymmetrical cross
to remind us that healing comes from both the art of medicine and from our
faith. A representation of the fountain is displayed
in the new Center for Advanced Healing.
In addition, a beautiful Water Wall in the new lobby
commemorates the loving recognition of Gary G. and Meryle K. Michael to their
parents, Herman and Amelia Michael, and Thomas and Marjorie Kurdy.
Tree of Life
The tree has long been a symbol of strength and comfort. It provides shelter, beauty and nourishment. It bends with grace in the wind and casts a cooling shadow in the heat. The tree symbolizes life itself. The Tree of Life is displayed in the new Center for Advanced Healing as a tribute to the great benefactors, Joe and Kathryn Albertson. The Tree of Life serves as a shining reminder of loved ones and a salute to their spirit. Although no new names can be added to the Tree of Life, other ways to honor and memorialize loved ones are available at Saint Alphonsus. Please contact the Foundation for additional information: 208-367-2759.
