Living Life to the Fullest: Deerfield Episcopal Retirement Community
It's difficult to talk about Deerfield Episcopal Retirement Community in Asheville, North Carolina, without wanting to add your name to the waiting list. With the Blue Ridge Mountains as a backdrop and national recognition as one of the best retirement communities in the country, Deerfield offers a multitude of amenities and a compassionate, complete continuum of care, from independent living to assisted living to skilled nursing.
House of Deputies President Gay Clark Jennings knows first-hand about the quality of lifestyle and care at Deerfield, where her 93-year-old father, Robert T. Clark resides. Clark, a retired architect, helped design Deerfield's Health Care Chapel.
"It's an amazing place," she said. "They embody Gospel values in the way they treat residents with dignity and respect. And they take seriously their affiliation with the Episcopal Church."
Welcome to the website of the House of Deputies. I hope that you will use this site to learn more about the ministry and mission that is made possible by General Convention and about the history and role of the House of Deputies.
