Retirees Ministry
Experiencing the Great Years of Life Together
The Retirees Ministry is designed to enhance community and spiritual formation among folks age 65 and older. Activities include outings, caring for those in need, monthly luncheons and dinners, and special programs.
Opportunities Include:
Retirees’ Luncheon
This group has a monthly luncheon on the third Wednesday at 11:00 am. Participants bring their own lunch. Drinks and desserts are provided. It is a meaningful time of connection and fellowship. We have a brief program with various activities.
Outings
We have various outings throughout the year. Some of our recent outings include a trip to New Orleans to the VanGough Immersive Experience, a trip to LSU’s Water Campus, the Planetarium, and other museums and interactive activities.
Retirees Out on the Town
On the first Tuesday of each month, the Retirees and friends meet at a local restaurant for a time of fellowship and good food.
Other Opportunities
UBC believes in the intergenerational church. While some programs and events are geared towards particular age groups, other opportunities are multi-generational, such as church-wide Gatherings, and Sunday Spiritual Formation Groups.
Caring For Those Unable to Attend
Through personal visitation, phone calls or writing, we are seeking to care for people unable to attend various functions and worship.
