Senior Adult

This season of life brings with it both deep wisdom and unique challenges—and our Senior Adult Gathering is a space to walk that journey together. Rooted in fellowship and faith, this group offers a place to reflect on God's faithfulness, grow deeper in spiritual maturity, and find support through life's ongoing changes.

Whether you are navigating retirement, health changes, loss, or simply seeking community, you are not alone. Together, we seek God’s guidance, share our stories, and encourage one another to finish well in the faith. Come be refreshed, renewed, and reminded of God’s enduring presence in every season.

Since March 2023, our senior group has been creating wonderful memories together. We've explored the beauty of Meadowlark Botanical Garden, enjoyed a sightseeing cruise on the Potomac River, and delved into the rich history at The National Museum of the U.S. Army. We've learned about aging and mental health, nutrition science, decluttering, and cybersecurity.

The group gathers on the third Wednesday of the odd month, except July. Gathering dates for the rest of the year 2025 are: September 17, and November 19.
