Senior Ministry
Seniors, we are delighted to share that one of our guests, young Brother Paul, age 11, was the champion of the 2025 Senior Cup games held on October 25th. His impressive skill with the bamboo fishing pole earned him the real cup! Thank you to everyone who participated in this Heavenly Harvest intergenerational outreach opportunity. Seniors who have not yet completed the 60th Plus Ministry Survey are encouraged to provide their feedback. For details about the survey, please see Rev. McDuffie.
