Senior Adults age 55+
Restoration Church believes the Bible is clear that senior adults are not just to be respected because they are “old.” Rather, they have an important place in the life of the local church.
The primary purpose of a senior ministry in church is to nurture the spiritual, social, and physical well-being of older adults, fostering their involvement in the church and community while utilizing their wisdom and experience. This includes providing opportunities for spiritual growth, fellowship, outreach, and engaging in meaningful service.
