But God hath promised
Strength for the day,
Rest for the labor,
Light for the way
Grace for the trails,
Help from above,
Unfailing sympathy,
Undying love.

The Mission's residents span all ages, and include members of many races and nationalities. Assured that every need will be met, seniors relax in the warmth and security of life at Jonestown. Physical therapy and health checks are given daily. Our oldest resident recently made the long trip from the States at 108.
If I should die and leave you hear a while,
Be not like others, sore undone, who keep
Long vigil by the silent dust and weep.
For my sake turn again to life and smile,
Nerving thy heart and trembling hand to do
That which will comfort other souls than
thine;
Complete these dear unfinished tasks of mine,
And I, perchance, may therein comfort you.

Jonestown: The Night Before the Tragedy
I have held many things in my hands, and I have
Lost them all; but whatever I have placed in God's
Hands, that I still possess.
