Senior AdultsThe senior adult ministry is made up of two groups that meet separately but work together supporting our church in its mission of "impacting our communities with the hope, peace and purpose of Jesus Christ."The 39ers meet in the Salt House on the second Tuesday of every month at 11:00 a.m. for a Bible study and covered dish lunch here at the church. The 39ers also engage in ministry opportunities, games, crafts and other activities on these days. The Forerunners meet on the second Thursday evening of each month at 6:30 p.m. for a covered dish dinner. Dinner is followed with a guest speaker/singer, games and other ministry activities. (NOTE: Our dinners are usually in the Family Life Center, but we will be meeting in the Salt House during the Kitchen/FLC renovation.) We are blessed to be able to meet, eat and take a day trip every now and then and other times enjoy a guest speaker or entertainment. For some, this is the extent of our social life but that's only a part of the blessings we receive. The real blessings come from aiding each other and others in times of need, ministering in nursing homes and to those who are homebound. Hospital visits aren't off limits, but we probably get more than we give since travel is an issue for some. Worship Services at Area Assisted Living Centers - Our church now has three assisted living centers/nursing homes for which we are conducting worship services. We need song leaders, keyboardists, testimonies, special music, and teachers -- as well as anyone who will come to just love on the people. Our services at the Christian Care Center in Ashland City are every Tuesdays at 10 a.m. We meet at Grace Healthcare Center in Whites Creek every third Tuesday at 2 p.m., and we have nine Sundays throughout the year at Golden Living in Springfield. The next one is March 6 at 2:30 p.m. Our monthly schedule and planned upcoming events/activities for senior adults are listed below. (Note: If you need transportation to any of these events, please call the church office and let us know.) February Schedule

purchases. You can get one of these gift cards from the church office and use
it just like a credit or debit card when you do your grocery shopping, and
Kroger will donate to the church 4 percent of all purchases made with the card. |
