Where faith leaves lasting impact

  • You have come this far.

    You worked so hard, raised your children, and did everything you could for your family and in your career. We congratulate your accomplishments and admire your commitment.

    You may find yourself to be an empty nester or a retiree or even home alone. If you are looking for meaningful relationships and long-lasting fellowship, we hope you find one among us.

  • Share what you learned.

    You are important in God’s eyes and we value your experiences and knowledge. Enrich our conversations by sharing your stories and enliven our community by joining one of our groups.

    We need you because you have the wisdom of ages and you embody living tradition on which our new generation build their faith and future. Come and leave a lasting impact.

 We believe in offering faith enriching experiences that provide . . .

  • a place where you will be challenged, changed, inspired and engaged.
