United Methodist Communities (UMC) is proud to announce a strategic partnership with Atlas Senior Living, a best-in-class provider, facilitated by DA Davidson. This collaboration marks the launch of Connexion Communities, a new extension of UMC’s ministry that expands our impact beyond New Jersey.

Connexion Communities will serve as the owner, with Atlas Senior Living as the continued high-performing operator of three senior living communities in the Greenville, South Carolina area—totaling 306 units across independent living, assisted living, and memory care.

"This is not just a transaction—it’s a mission-driven alliance that ensures sustainability, relevance, and growth in a rapidly changing senior care landscape," said Mark Lenhard, President & CEO of United Methodist Communities. "With a strong foundation, visionary leadership, and a strategic partnership that aligns with our values, we are poised to grow our impact and continue serving seniors with excellence and compassion."

This partnership reflects the shared commitment of two mission-driven organizations to elevate senior care and expand access to housing and services.
