The ministry was formed out of a need for those over 55, to have fellowship and minister to the body regardless of our physical limitations. We wanted to use our gifts of service to glorify God and serve the church. Some of the duties we have committed to, both individually and corporately are:
- Pray for specific needs of the body as requested by the prayer team and pastor.
- Send out birthday, get-well and 'miss you' postcards to the children who attend Sunday School.
- Help with cleaning around the church
- Events for the seniors to gather and support one another in Christ Jesus
- Hospitality
As a group we are willing to take on more responsibility, the only thing we are limited by is transportation and physical confinement.
We try to plan socials or events monthly. These events may be during the day or evening hours and are always a lot of fun. Some things we did last year include, Seattle Watershed Tour, going to the Theater, Botanical Gardens, Cedar Falls historic tour and Candy factory.
If you are interested in any of these events or would like to be added to the contact list, please call Jane.
