Services to Seniors


Services to Seniors exists to provide a caring, supportive venue which seeks to minister to the 'whole' person: taking into account the spiritual, emotional, physical and social aspects of the individual.

MAIN FOCUS

seniors
To recognize seniors for who we are - children of God
To provide opportunity for them to know Jesus Christ personally
To nurture us in the faith
To provide a safe, healthy and happy environment where possible:
- meet on a regular basis
- enjoy good Christian fellowship
- share a meal/refreshments
- gain information that will assist in day to day existence

MINISTRY

It's ministry is to provide a well balanced program to include:

Spiritual Enrichment

The need for spiritual growth does not diminish with age. Some are eager to grow in their experience with the Lord, while others need to
be motivated - Bible Study, Prayer Groups, Camps, Rallies.

Learning Opportunities

To function in our rapidly changing world we must continue to learn and be challenged - Invite professional people to speak to the group on issues pertaining to seniors, provide workshops whereby they can learn new skills.

Social Gatherings


senior It doesn't have to be a special occasion. Seniors just love being together - seniors love to party, play game, go on day trips, enjoy light recreation, have a good old fashion sing-a-long.
Seniors need to be needed... Find out what they are capable of doing... Empower them to do it!!!
