Gracious Seniors is a program for retired people of all ages, held on the third Thursdays of February, May, August and November. The group shares a meal at noon and then sees a presentation from that month's guest speaker. Our programs are very interesting and are open to anyone, Grace members and non-members alike. It is a wonderful afternoon of food, fellowship, and fun. Please RSVP so they have a ballpark idea of how much food to prepare.
Next Luncheon Gathering Join us on Thursday, November 14 at noon for a delicious meal of sausage and homemade corn fritters. We ask that you bring sides, salads, desserts, and beverages to share. Sign up sheets will be on the bulletin boards at church so we know how many to expect, or you can call the church office to RSVP. Note: this is a week earlier than we usually meet.
Our program will be very interesting for Seniors who must plan future care for themselves and their loved ones. The presenters will be from Premier Senior Placement from Allentown. They are here to help families with Elder Care Law, Medical Advocates, Rehab (PT, OT, and Speech), Home Nursing Support, Transportation, and Senior Moving Companies. The second half of our program will be presented by our Parish Nurse Kim Vaupel, who will discuss the "Brotherly Love" Parish Nursing program here at Grace.
Do you or perhaps a friend have an interesting hobby or pictures from a trip that you would like to share at one of our future Senior Luncheons? We have had some great programs presented by our own members and are always looking for more. Talk with Sandy Schantz (contact info above) if you are interested in sharing.
On Thursday, May 16 at noon, Rev. Rachael Dietz and Chipotle gave an informative, funny, and touching presentation. Thank you to Al McCrae for the AV setup, to Judy Reppert for the Thrivent sponsorship, and to Sandy Schantz and Dennis Meck for cooking and serving the meal.
