DO YOU HAVE A HEART FOR THE ELDERLY COMMUNITY? ARE YOU BURDENED FOR THOSE IN CARE HOMES? Are you looking for ways to engage and disciple people 55 and older with the gospel? Get in the story God is writing here in South Florida as part of the Elderly Care Team!
The objective of this team is to engage the elderly community— primarily those in 55+ communities, post-retirement, and care facility—to deepen their faith in God and mobilize them as key members of society through the contribution of mentorship and discipleship.
Recognizing that Florida has been ranked the number one state move to when you retire—with Pembroke Pines, Fort Lauderdale, and Miami ranked among the top 20 best cities, according to Business Insider—and understanding the expected growth in this population over the next five years, this project team will seek to develop opportunities that engage this often-neglected population. By designing programs at senior adult facility and condominiums that allow us to provide discipleship, volunteer, and fellowship opportunities, our desire is to help bring a renewed sense of purpose to this population. This will help to mobilize elderly believers as key contributors to the discipleship process in South Florida.
