Our goal is to develop strategies which will help inform older adults on a wide variety of topics: those relating to spiritual, physical and mental health, financial concerns, law and retirement issues, housing and transportation matters, volunteer and employment opportunities, and end of life planning.
Retreats and other events planned by the Older Adult Ministry create opportunities to gather and focus on particular age-related issues, with time for worship, learning together and fellowship.

Join other adults and church leaders for a day retreat on November 7. Using “Great is thy Faithfulness” as inspiration, explore and reflect on our purpose, our gifts, and our legacy. What is the witness we bring to our church? What gifts do we offer in this season of our life? What are the blessings of our ministries? The retreat is jointly hosted by Camp Hanover and the Older Adult Ministry.
