INTRODUCING TEXAS’ FIRST "APOLLO: RESPITE FOR ALL" PROGRAM
St. Thomas the Apostle Episcopal Church announces the launch of Apollo: Respite for All, Texas' first respite care program modeled after the Respite for All Foundation model (https://respiteforall org/) The program officially starts on April 29th and will run every Tuesday from 10:00 am to 2:00 pm
Located directly across from the Johnson Space Center in Nassau Bay, at St Thomas Episcopal Church (18300 Upper Bay Dr ), Apollo: Respite for All is designed to offer structured, daytime respite care, primarily focused on serving adults with mild to moderate dementia and their caregivers. The program provides participants with meaningful social connections and fun, engaging activities, while allowing caregivers essential time to rest and recharge.
Activities offered each week will include:
• Recreational and social interactions
• Arts and creative expression
• Health and wellness sessions
• Community-building and spiritual support
• Nutritious lunch
Utilizing a community model of care, all Apollo volunteers are trained and have undergone background checks, ensuring a safe and supportive environment for participants.
"We recognize the growing need for reliable respite care options in our community for those dealing with the reality of dementia" said Rev Sean Steele, Director of the Apollo Respite program.
“Apollo: Respite for All” addresses that need directly, offering both participants and caregivers the supportive space they require.

We look forward to seeing you!
It has been 25 years since Sonia Kotb and husband Magdy Kotb launched Mediterraneo in Nassau Bay. The opening date was March 16th, 2000, coinciding with Magdy’s Birthday
It has been a wild and exciting ride and not always easy, but their partnership, enthusiasm and love carried them through all the ups and downs, as did the the exceptional community of Nassau Bay and their dedicated loyal staff.
“Our Customers mean the world to us, they are the reason why I am able to stay strong and carry the torch. We all miss Magdy His presence is so large that it exists in the DNA of the restaurant, and though he is not here to greet everyone, his bright infectious smile is all around.”
Thank you to everyone who made it out to celebrate at Mediterraneo Market & Café’s 25th anniversary on March 22nd.
“With much appreciation to our community and staff.” - Sonia Kotb

Thank you to our City and residents for all of your support during the 2024-2025 garden club season.
In the months of May, June and July, we take a break from formal meetings and turn our attention to our flowerbeds, or as we prefer to call them, our gardens: David Braun Park Reflection Garden and Entrance Gardens, Upper Bay Circle Garden, Tranquility Arbor, Swan Lagoon Park Butterfly Garden, and the Blue Star Memorial Marker.
All of the club gardens still need some work and additional spring planting. We will be working on that in April and May, and we hope the result will be COLORFUL AND HAPPY LOOKING for the entire city to enjoy
