Churches grow in numbers and in heath as the result of members who ‘serve one another with love’, to quote St Paul.

For those who are retired and active, this offers some distinct opportunities.

Although you will already have been playing your part, now there are new prospects to consider. But are also some important issues to face.

These include –

Volunteering – what’s different now and how to be wise in your commitments?

Using your life skills – how to use what you have learned in the past to help your church in the future.

Those in their active after-work years have an enormous amount to offer in serving their church. Make the most of it.
