Our Stories: Cheryl Fannin

What I love about L'Arche is that it's like having a big extended family. There are so many opportunities, especially for social and spiritual growth. Lance has done things beyond my expectations like participating in the Spiritual Life Committee and sharing his ideas, moving into a new house with new roommates, attending retreats out of town, making connections with other L'Arche communities, volunteering in the community.  He has grown so much in expressing gratefulness and makes mountains of thank you cards, and L'Arche supports this. As a parent I have peace of mind that he will continue to have those opportunities to grow and be supported physically, socially and spiritually.
