Christ’s Home Celebrates 100 Years of Senior Care in Warminster

We recognized all the elected officers that served present or past on the Resident Council of the Independent Living community.

Christ’s Home CFO and Children’s Campus Maintenance Director were also recognized for their years of service

Warminster, PA, October 17, 2023 – Christ’s Home celebrated 100 years of senior care in Warminster, as well as its 120th year of serving disadvantaged children, at its annual Legacy Event on October 12. Chief Financial Officer, Dee Bartolanzo, and Children’s Campus Maintenance Director, Ron Buchanan, who are both retiring, were also recognized for their 32 and 29 years of service at Christ’s Home respectively.

Christ’s Home Chief Executive Officer, John Bryant, is immensely thankful for the legacy Christ’s Home has.

Christ’s Home, which was founded in 1903 by Dr. Albert Oetinger and Katharine Krausslach as a faith-based non-denominational organization caring for children in Philadelphia, moved to Warminster, Bucks County in 1907. In 1923, Christ’s Home purchased St. Stephen’s Farm in Warminster and opened a retirement community for senior adults in the area. Then, in 1936, a branch of Christ’s Home for Children opened in Paradise, Lancaster County.

Today, the children’s campuses operate group homes for disadvantaged children. The retirement community expanded across the 84-acre Warminster campus. This expansion includes independent living cottages, independent living apartments, and a Healthcare Center with Memory Care services.
