Bethesda Lutheran Communities: Journey to Independence


This is a story I recorded for Bethesda Lutheran Communities, a Watertown, Wisconsin based organization that serves people with intellectual and developmental disabilities. After eight years of home ownership Ken Larson, Dick Servatius and John Zidlicky are living lives that amaze their families, inspire friends and energize Bethesda Lutheran Communities’ staff. For the three men, owning their home is the culmination of a lifelong journey to independence, one grounded in personal choices, support from families who love them, and an ongoing trust in Bethesda.

    Tim, thanks for putting this out there. It is a wonderful story. We just loved it. I also sent the link to Andrea at her school, Carroll in Wisconsin. She is studying Occupational Therapy, and this is a wonderful example of helping individuals reach their highest potential, which is something that OT’s do and what Andrea wants to do in her career. Thanks again for this great video!

    1. Thanks neighbors!
