He who began a good work in you
will perfect it until the day
of Christ Jesus.
Philippians 1:6
Our Adults 55+ group involves a wide variety of stage of life--from those working and actively involved in their children's lives, to long-retired individuals. But all offer years of wisdom and experience in walking with the Lord and seeing His handiwork in their lives. As a group, we continue to stay active learning, growing and serving.
BIBLE FELLOWSHIP CLASSES
Classes provide a personal touch to each senior adult while also providing fellowship, great Bible teaching and lasting friendships. Many of our senior adults teach classes from babies on up, providing a ministry to families of all ages. Find out more about classes for adults 55+ at both 8:15 and 10:30 a.m. with our Interactive Class Finder.
PASTORAL CARE
Our ministers regularly visit those in need of encouragement. We also train lay people to make visits as well, teaching them to minister to those in need and perhaps to their caregivers. However, we cannot know about a need unless we are contacted. If you or someone you know should need a visit, please e-mail us or call the church office at (901) 853-2668.
CARE NETWORK MINISTRY
We recognize that some senior adults have special needs and we strive to meet those needs as we are able. Our Care Network Ministry ministers to many of these needs. E-mail Les Helton or call the church office at (901) 853-2668 to find out more about ministries we offer. Care Network Ministry includes:
• Car Care
• Ride Share
• Health Care
• Daily Contact
