Our ministry with older adults is holistic, focusing on their spiritual, social, intellectual, relational and physical needs and celebrating their gifts of faith, wisdom, maturity and experience.  Events are for everyone – singles and couples.  Our activities are open to anyone age 55 and older regardless of church membership
