A little more about the Sage-ing Initiative 
Members of our congregation have raised the need for more intentional programming for seniors. A team of senior adults plan monthly lunches with staff for fellowship, education, relationship building, community, and engagement. These lunches may include speakers, artists, musicians, as well as clergy and staff members to give us all an opportunity to get to know one another better and ask relevant questions related to what’s going on in the life of our church. In addition to the lunches, we may also plan travel trips for senior adults and promote the incredibly important work of eldering that some small groups of our senior adults have been engaged in over the last few years.
