Let’s celebrate life and what God is doing!
Boomer & Senior Celebration events are fun, inspirational times of gathering for worship, workshops, lunch and entertainment. You will be challenged and encouraged. You will laugh, make new friends, learn new things and establish new practices. Invite your friends to join you for this year’s Celebration!
Boomers (born 1946-1964) and Seniors (born before 1946) are valuable members of churches and Sunday Schools. They have many life experiences, gifts and abilities to share. They are often generous in giving of time, energy and resources with a strong commitment to God, the church and each other.
