Townhome Testimonials

“During the several years that my father lived in one of the townhouse units at Emmanuel Village, he enjoyed a wonderful community of caring people. Dad liked to sit on his front and invite people to come to chat. The second chair was often occupied by neighbours or by the staff at the lodge who would discuss local events; what the children and grandchildren were doing or just the weather. Being a widower my father was often treated to food or outings by his immediate neighbours. Dad insisted that there were good and generous people at Emmanuel Village.

”The townhouse was easy for Dad to maintain on his own and he really appreciated that he could go out in his car without needing to walk outside. The convenience of food store, drug store and gas station all just across the street meant that he could continue to live independently until past his 90th birthday.”

Staff Testimonials

“Emmanuel Village is not just a workplace, it is an environment filled with friends and family. The bonds formed among staff and residents are invaluable. It is definitely a home away from home, and I consider myself so privileged to be part of it.”

Wedding Testimonials

“We recently had our wedding at Emmanuel Village on Weber Street in Kitchener. It was a huge success and we feel it was one of the best decisions that we made during our wedding preparation. The staff were very happy and efficient and the food was excellent. One of my favorite parts was the fact that we could handle our own bar. We felt that the staff at Emmanuel Village were very honest and reliable, and were not trying to nickel and dime you. They had your best interest at heart. If you are looking for a hall then I would suggest not looking any further. We have attended two additional weddings here and we found that it was the best value in the region and the hall is gorgeous so you really don't even need a decorator. Emmanuel Village is the perfect choice.“
