OLDER ADULTS’ MINISTRIES
Older Adult Ministry refers to a dedicated program or set of initiatives designed to provide spiritual growth, fellowship, and service opportunities specifically for adult members of the congregation, often including outreach programs tailored to different life stages and needs within adulthood.
PURPOSE OF OLDER ADULT MINISTRIES: To empower the minds, bodies, and souls of “older adults” through interactive opportunities within our community’s mission field and beyond.
I’m a SENIOR, this I know, for my body tells me so!
Aches and pains to me belong, head to toe they hurt so long!
CHORUS: Yes, ADVIL helps me; yes, GAS-X helps me!
Yes, BENGAY helps me; my doctor tells me so!
(Sing to the tune of “Jesus Loves Me”)
