Sun, 10.1.23, 9:30 am, Room 380 - Begin with the End in Mind
Someday someone will be somewhere leading a Celebration of Life service for you. Are you presently living with that legacy in mind? What memories are you making? Are there relationships you need to pursue? Do you have a life verse or favorite passage of Scripture? Treasured songs? Assurances you want your family and friends to hear? Discover the freedom found when thinking through how you want to be remembered and the courage to make better daily choices.

Sun, 11.5.23, 9:30 am, Room 380 - Money Matters
Physical possessions, resources, assets, and money all too easily become a source of friction, frustration, and division, even in the closest or healthiest of families. We will offer thoughtful questions for you to work through so you can make wise decisions about your resources now and help reduce the risk of this happening.
Sun, 3.3.24, 9:30 am, Room 380 - The Resilient Life
The Bible urges us to “run with perseverance the race that is marked out for us” (Hebrews 12:1). All too often people grow weary or lose heart (Hebrews 12:3). In this session we will share practical ways to continue aging wisely and finish the race well.

Many people spend anxiety-filled days wondering what is going
to happen as they age. In this session we will look at Psalms
90 & 139 and celebrate the gift of life. We will also share how

at appropriate preparations for natural stages of life.
