Young at Heart


Young at Heart
Midland, New Brunswick

Today, we had the great joy of joining our friends for the 9th Anniversary of the "Young at Heart” Ministry. It was so encouraging to see how this outreach to seniors has grown from that first gathering of only 14 people in 2003 to now a regular monthly attendance from 80 to over 100 people. Young at Heart continues to be a vital part of its community thanks to the dedicated volunteers who share their love and their faith so unselfishly!

We want to thank Theresa Hickman, Sandra Gray, and all of the Young at Heart volunteers for the energy that you continue to pour into this ministry and for the hospitality and love that you showered upon our family! We hope you have a great summer break, and wish you all a great Fall as Young at Heart returns on the first Tuesday of September.


Today’s gathering overflowed from the sanctuary 
into the common room, as Young at Heart welcomed 
guests from Sussex to Saint John

(The furtherest guest was, without a doubt, Laura Bonnie who had just arrived from Manila, Philippines, where she serves as a missionary)

  1. The pastor at my church started a seniors bible study last year on Monday mornings. When he asked them to come up with a name for their group, they called it the YAHOOs (Young at Heart or Older) :)
