Saints Actively Involved Nurturing the Seniors
For adults 50 and over
This ministry offers a variety of opportunities for adults over 50, both singles and couples.The S.A.I.N.T.S. is not a “senior citizens group;” but rather a diverse fellowship of men and women who have entered a different phase of life. Children are grown, retirement is beginning, second careers are being pursued or are on the horizon. Some have lost spouses and some are grandparents. Our desire is to integrate our gifts,energies and experiences into the body of Christ at Midland Free.
Our mission is to develop Midland Free Saints to be Actively Involved Nurturing The Seniors by helping them Make,Mature, and Multiply disciples of Jesus Christ at Midland Free, the local community, and around the world.
It is our desire to serve our community and the body of Christ at Midland Free. Several areas of opportunity include:
Prayer and Care - Many senior adults are living in nursing homes and spend some time in the hospital. The S.A.I.N.T.S.will visit those residents several times each year.
