Groups & Gatherings
Led by various members of Second
Second Act
Next gathering: Saturday, November 7
Second Act is for those who have done all the things connected to careers and families and who are now ready for a “Second Act.” Some gatherings will be for fellowship and some will delve into topics related to faithful living. There is no age or stage of life requirements to join us!
We may be people who no longer work to pay the bills, but are still contributing in ways that give purpose. And/or, we may be people who are adjusting to kids who have left the nest, or will be leaving in the next couple of years. And of course, single or coupled folks in this stage group are welcome!
Contact the Committee: Carol Are, Nicolette Zimmermann, or Brian and Merrill Myers
