We’re Part of Your Neighborhood
When searching for the right location in the right neighborhood, we had two criteria: convenient to city life but with a neighborly community connection. We feel we found the perfect spot. You don’t need to drive far from your current Harrisburg home to afford living in your own community. We wanted to offer the best retirement community right in your neighborhood.
“Our experience at Ecumenical Retirement Community has been great. They are very accommodating, very friendly and nice, and they show great respect for their residents. The place is very nice. I have seen all areas of the facility, and everything is in good condition.” ~ Daughter of a Resident
Convenient to Harrisburg Living
Tucked away in the historic Susquehanna Township, Ecumenical Retirement Community is minutes from popular shopping and entertainment destinations, places of worship and medical centers, while feeling miles from commercial interruptions. Our area of service supports mostly the East Shore though we welcome any newcomers to the vicinity.
If you are familiar with this Harrisburg neighborhood, Ecumenical’s campus is just three blocks south of the Union Deposit-Progress Avenue intersection, conveniently near Paxtang and close to I-83. Our neighbors include U-Gro Learning Center and The Circle School—with whom we enjoy many intergenerational programs and grand-friend bonds.
Welcomed “Neighbors”
Another reason we selected our campus location is for the lush floral and plant life on our grounds including milkweed, New Jersey Tea, purple coneflower, blanketflower, Shasta daisies and trumpet honeysuckle. Thanks to the green thumbs of residents and co-workers, our gardens thrive and invite other neighbors such as Monarch butterflies, song birds, cardinals, finches, deer, fox and rabbits.
In fact our Butterfly Patch is an official certified Monarch Waystation through the non-profit Monarch Waystation Registry. Ecumenical is helping conserve the Monarch butterfly population through cultivating our milkweed plants. Learn about our Waystation.
You’re Always Welcome, Neighbor
We’re proud of our Harrisburg senior living community and even prouder that our residents and co-workers contribute to its beauty and comforts.
