Senior Adult Ministries

Your presence in our fellowship is deeply appreciated. We hope that you will find warm fellowship here and your experience will be a source of blessing and personal encouragement.

As a multi-generational church, we draw strength and inspiration from each other. The stability and maturity provided by the senior adults in our midst gives us an important balance creating a more effective ministry in our community.

Our church motto ~ Making a difference one life at a time ~ is important to us. Our senior adults help support this motto in many areas. Take a moment to acquaint yourself with some of the activities and ministries of interest to seniors. You will be most welcome at any of these.

Sunday Morning Adult Fellowships
You will find numerous Bible classes on Sunday mornings listed at the information kiosk in the lobby, but you will find most seniors in the Seekers or the Pathfinders classes at 10:00am.
Truth Talk
This is a special Bible study that meets on Sunday evenings featuring the teaching ministry of Pastor Tim Walton.  Currently Truth Talk is doing The Gospel According to Mark.  We meet in the Fireside Room, 6:00-7:15pm.
Silver & Gold Luncheons
Meeting at noon on the 4th Tuesday of the month in the Manor; featuring food, fellowship, speakers, music, and special programming (note: No meeting in July or November; December meeting on the 2nd Tuesday). All meetings are from 12-noon to 2:00pm.  Bring a luncheon dish for our delightful potluck buffet luncheon!   Here is our fall and winter schedule:

  • JANUARY 24: Featuring the leaders of our ACC Middle School Ministry. Meet the key staff, hear their passion for ministering to students, their testimonies, and their music!
  • FEBRUARY 28:  SPECIAL GUEST DRAMATIST SUSIE TUCKER!  Susie has been with us at Silver and Gold several times before depicting Corrie ten Boom and Gladys Aylward.  On February 28 she will be with again with a new historical character:  Darlene Deibler Rose.  Darlene was a missionary to New Guinea when WW II broke out.  She spent the war in a Japanese prison camp.  Her trials and her eventual return home to the United States were told in her book Evidence Not Seen.  Darlene's faith sustained her through time on death row and through the loss of her husband and everything else she possessed.
  • MARCH 27:  “HOW DID A NICE JEWISH BOY LIKE YOU BECOME A  CHRISTIAN PREACHER?”   Meet Shelley and Dayle Gayle, a PNW pastoral couple who both grew up in traditional Jewish homes.  You will love to hear the story of how they came to faith in Jesus and found their way into church ministry.  Shelley doesn’t have a typical pastor’s resume.   He served in the US Coast Guard and then worked as a cop with the Los Angeles Police Department.   They both have graduated from Bible college and now are working with PNW churches that are struggling and need strengthening and rebuilding.

Women's Missionary Fellowship (WMF)
Meets at 12:00 noon for lunch on the second Tuesday in E104, October thru May. Women of all ages are welcome. The focus is on outreach ministries with an emphasis on missionaries and projects supported by our church. Each meeting features a missionary speaker.
Sewing Ladies
Gather together on the first and third Tuesday from 10:00am to 2:00pm to make quilts for refugees, street people or others in need. They are distributed by relief organizations or missionaries. Contact Nora Meissner.
Helping Hands
Are people who are willing to help others who need assistance with small home maintenance and auto problems, transportation or other personal needs. You can put your talents to work helping others or you are welcome to call for help. Contact Dave Ballbach.
Library Maintenance
