Mission
To Establish and maintain ministry opportunities for and with Senior adults to involve them in fellowship, ministry and missions through First Baptist Church of Pelham - a lifelong ministry.
Introducing our Senior Adult Ministry
Our Senior Adults are very special at First Baptist Church of Pelham. Our usual meeting time is the second Tuesday of each month. We spend an hour or so doing ministry activities (making items to be shared with residence or nursing homes, and other ministries). We share ministry needs, and develop strategies to involve our members in meeting those needs that we are able to do. We enjoy a prepared meal (at a nominal cost) or as the case, several times per year, we enjoy a covered dish lunch consisting of our favorite dishes, brought by our Senior Adult Members.
Our Senior Adults are involved in a definite "Volunteer Ministry" throughout the total ministry of FBC Pelham. It is our desire to be a positive force in our church. Our seniors see themselves as leaders in an effort to reach out to our community and reach others within our membership with a ministry of service.
Our Seniors enjoy an opportunity to sing in our Senior Adult Choir, participate in missions, both in our community and around the world. Our Senior Adult Mission Trips are well attended, and tremendously effective. The Seniors travel to interesting places for Day Trips, and also take two or three Four Day conferences which contributes to the excitement of a Church on Mission for our Master.
