SENIOR SHARING MINISTRY
“God, You have taught me in my youth and I am still proclaiming your marvels. Now that I am old and gray-haired, God, do not desert me, till I have proclaimed Your strength to generation still to come, Your power & justice to the skies”
Psalm 71: 17-18
“Where seniors can relax, fellowship, learn something, laugh, pray together, share ideas
and laugh some more.."
WHO ARE WE?
We are a Heartland Parish Ministry that engages and involves those 55 or older through fellowship, fun, companionship, and practical assistance by providing opportunities for seniors to continue to live an active life within our faith community. We also include intergenerational activities so as to benefit our younger adults and youth by their involvement with seniors.
HOW DO WE DO THIS?
We coordinate Christ-centered social events, educational seminars, faith-building discussions, and enjoyable monthly gatherings (see calendar of events below). We also visit local assisted living and nursing homes where we lead rosaries, participate in faith sharing/Bible study sessions, help with bingo, and assist with the Mass. We make visits to the homebound and assist them in other practical needs.
HOW CAN I HELP?
We are always in need of volunteers to help with ideas on monthly events, to visit seniors and the homebound and to lead rosaries or faith-sharing. Please call Laura Sadeghi @ 785-625-5857 or email @
lsadeghi@ruraltel.net for more information.
