Led by Pastor Tracey Harlan, our Older Adults Ministry is a vibrant and welcoming community for men and women age 65 and better who believe life is meant to be lived actively and purposefully. Whether you’re looking to connect through planned outings or spontaneous social gatherings, there’s something for everyone. From museum visits, art shows, and concerts to lunch meetups and community events, we gather regularly to grow in friendship and faith—never putting our wisdom or experience on a shelf.
For more information about upcoming opportunities and how to get involved, email Pastor Tracey today.
SENIOR ADULT SUNDAY SCHOOL CLASS
Saint Joseph Campus, Community Cafe
Sundays @10:45 - 11:45am
This discipleship resource helps people grow as followers of Jesus Christ, individually and in community with others. In each session, you will connect in community with others in the class, study God's Word, apply The Word to your life and be challenged to live out the application in everyday life!
PRACTICING THE WAY
Following Jesus isn’t just about what we believe—it’s about how we live. Practicing the Way is a discipleship journey that helps us recover the simplicity and depth of walking in the way of Jesus. Through teaching, spiritual practices, and meaningful discussion, this study will guide you toward living with greater intentionality, peace, and purpose.
No matter your stage of life, you’ll be equipped to slow down, center your life on Jesus, and discover rhythms of spiritual formation that shape your everyday life.
👉 Come ready to be challenged, encouraged, and transformed as we learn to live like Jesus—together.
