We’re excited to share the 2026 older adult ministry resource guide with you. Inside you’ll find practical ideas and inspiring tools to support ministry with older adults—whether in your congregation, organization, or a wider population.

Please share this guide with faith leaders and volunteers as we work together to build community across generations.

Creating meaningful connections between generations is essential for a thriving faith community. Older adults bring wisdom, life experience, and spiritual depth, while younger members offer fresh perspectives, energy, and creativity. When these gifts come together, the entire community is enriched.

You’ll find a special worship service for Older Adult Sunday in May, titled “God’s Faithful Presence Through All Our Days.”

We’d love to hear what your church or senior community is doing to celebrate and support older adults. Share your stories with us—we might feature them in a future guide or newsletter.

Connect with us through the POAMN website, poamn.org; by e-mail at info@poamn.org; or on Facebook at facebook.com/poamn.
We hope this resource blesses your ministry throughout the year.

Peace and Blessings,
The POAMN Board of Directors
