38 AUGUST-SEPTEMBER 2025 | DENVER CATHOLIC More than a century ago, philanthropists J.K. and Catherine Mullen, guided by their deep Catholic faith, envisioned a community of dignity and compassionate care for older adults to live in North Denver. Entrusted to the Little Sisters of the Poor, the Mullen Home became a beacon of love, prayer, and service—a legacy that touched generations. While we honor this history of compassion, we are excited to embark on a new chapter with a new purpose—introducing Mullen Residences at the Highlands, a vibrant senior living community rooted in the same Catholic values but guided by a renewed mission for today's world. Inspired by the voices of former residents, staff, and volunteers, this transformation honors that Mullen was never just a place to live—it was a true home. Now, it's reborn as a community for Denver's older adults to live with comfort, connection, and purpose. Envision stepping onto the beautifully restored 8-acre campus, where the Catholic faith and compassion of the Little Sisters once shaped every corner, laying a lasting foundation of love, dignity, and joy for what comes next. Today, the Archdiocese of Denver, through a visionary partnership with Christian Living Communities (CLC), a trusted leader in senior care for over 50 years, breathes new life into the campus with the creation of Mullen Residences at the Highlands: a faith-centered senior living community thoughtfully designed for today's older adults. A History of Compassion, a Vibrant New Future
