NEW VISION ADULT MINISTRIES (50 yrs. +)
New Vision is... a fellowship, educational and service experience for adults (50 yrs +). The purpose is to provide service and new learning experiences for adults, offering opportunities for intentional education, faith-filled reflection, fellowship,and cross-generational and cross-cultural appreciation in the context of Christian mission.
Did you know that... New Vision participants play a pivotal role in our church with important financial giving to the church. Most often they are the leaders and teachers in the church, proclaiming and teaching the faith. New Vision Adults are present in all three worship services and engage in spiritual growth opportunities. They are often the first to sign up, the first to attend, the first to invite, the first to welcome, and the last to leave. They have time and practical knowledge (wisdom gained from years of experience).
Here at First Methodist... we invite, equip, and empower New Vision Adults for service and to make a difference in the lives of other adults and the people they seek to serve.
Statement of Purpose...
To help adults (50 yrs +) live, learn, and serve through the vitality of
Jesus Christ by:
Meeting the needs of adults in areas of love, caring, gaining a sense of belonging, recognition, purpose, mission appreciation, and fellowship.
-
Implementing programs, trips, and service projects to specifically meet those needs.
-
Accepting responsibility so that all adults will both serve and be served by the hope and strength of Jesus.
