Senior Adult Ministries
The Senior Adult Ministry of BMPC organizes itself
around the wisdom, gifts, and needs of the approximately 1000 members of
our congregation who are 65 years of age and older. Their leadership and
support are vital to the work of the entire congregation and to the
community. Through the Senior Adult Council (SAC), a variety of forms of
service and education are designed to nurture and enrich the lives of
these members. At the present time, the work of the SAC is organized
into three areas: Care/Support/Hospitality, Education, and Mission and
Advocacy.
Our ministry includes:

· Sunday Brunches
and occasional weekday luncheons and programs
· An on-staff
Care Manager.
·
A medical equipment lending closet

Nursing and Retirement Home information
