Three ways you can help us offer our best
~ Volunteer ~ Join our team ~ Pray ~
Similarly to the entire senior living sector, Presbyterian Homes is navigating the current workforce challenges in a number of different ways. We have implemented an extensive array of initiatives to meet this challenge, and will continue to do so.
We are inspired by the prayer and support of our residents, their families, and our volunteers. Now, we invite you to prayerfully consider three ways you can join us in this endeavor, especially when the need is great and the people who benefit are your neighbors.
1. Support our staff as a volunteer
Our mission is made possible in part by the support of such volunteers working side-by-side with our employees. While volunteer service is unique to the needs of each community, when you offer your gifts of time and talent to serve others, you are extending God’s grace in its various forms.
Specific tasks are determined by the needs of the community. Volunteer hours are flexible and hours served will be recorded. Appropriate training will be provided for each volunteer role and task.
2. Join our team as an employee
Residents and family members are welcome to apply for positions in full time, part time or on-call capacities. Hours are flexible and, while training is provided, many positions do not require special certification or licensing. Visit https://www.preshomes.org/careers.
3. Pray with us
Prayer sustains and anchors our ministry. So, we invite you to join us as “People of Prayer,” a special call to all our residents, families, friends and employees asking God to send workers and volunteers for such a time as this.
Please consider any or all of the above, that we may continue to
fulfill our ministry and mission with God’s richest blessings.

Our Mission
The mission of Presbyterian Homes and Services is to honor God by enriching the lives and touching the hearts of older adults.
Our Motto
Creating smiles in the eyes of the people we serve
Our Services
Lake Minnetonka Shores is proud to be an affiliate of Presbyterian Homes and Services. We offer a full continuum of senior care which includes independent living, assisted living, memory care, transitional care and 24/7 care, along with our Koala Daycare available for children 6 weeks to 5 years.
Our volunteers are part of the reason Presbyterian Homes is rated one of the best senior care living entities in the nation. Volunteers give special care to residents allowing them to participate in our many activities.
Some favorites are movies in our on-site theater, creative movement exercising, woods and crafts, library time, playing games, putting puzzles together, and enjoying many of our popular entertainment acts and outings. With our children's daycare on-site, seniors and children get to interact with one another creating many smiles and giggles for all.
Please come join the fun and become a Lake Minnetonka Shores volunteer! I'll be looking for you!
