Keenagers.
There were not many activities for just
seniors in 1977, so a small group got together for a covered dish luncheon
and a devotional.
They were a lively group, and John
Gillis dubbed them the ‘Keenagers’. Since
that time, the group has grown and formalized its agenda.
The leadership
soon learned that highlights for seniors, (anyone over 55) was eating,
travel, entertainment and ministering.
Over the years seniors ministry
has included the homebound, each other, the Golden Echoes, the clothing
room, the food pantry, FLC volunteers, funeral food, etc.
Additional
memories have been added with trips to Kentucky, Pennsylvania Amish
Country, Epcot, Cypress Gardens, Silver Springs, Branson, Mo, and a host
of other exciting destinations.
The Keenagers glory in
the love of God and each other and we really eat well on the first Tuesday
of every month.

Neil or Barbara Thorsen.
