Senior adults
Here at Purpose Church, our Senior Adults find significance and meaning in the second half of their lives as we serve the Church and pour into future generations of Christ followers. We seek to better understand God, His Word, and His work through intentional biblical study, service, and the declaration of God’s power.

RESOURCES FOR SENIOR ADULTS
PRAYER SHAWLS
We welcome both experienced knitters/crocheters and those who want to learn! A Prayer Shawl can symbolize comfort, peace, and spiritual sustenance for those who receive this special gift. We make and pray over Prayer Shawls for those who have lost a loved one or who are suffering from illnesses. We also make breast prosthetics for breast cancer survivors, and prayer scarves for our students going to winter camp.
We have given over 500 Prayer Shawls! Come and be blessed by this ministry!
Every 2nd Wednesday (before monthly Senior Luncheon) 9:30 – 11:30am
