Christian Village Senior Adults Ministry

The Christian Village Senior Adult Ministry focuses on golden agers who live in the Christian Village Apartments, a retirement facility for seniors.

Several months of the year, NorthWest Church of Christ is responsible for a devotional each Sunday evening at the Christian Village facility for residents who are unable to make it to regular worship services at a church.

We typically gather in the facility community center and conduct a devotional consisting of prayer, songs, a brief lesson, and communion. We normally begin the service at 5:00 and conclude in time for those who wish to return to the church building for evening services.

We are always in need of volunteers to facilitate these activities.

How can I serve in the Christian Village Ministry:
  • Attend the devotional at Christian Village Apartments on our scheduled Sunday evening
  • Lead prayer
  • Lead singing
  • Serve communion
  • Present a short devotional lesson
