49er’s Ministry

The 49ers program among our Seniors began about 25 years ago when a number of our senior members began to meet together for fellowship, and various activities and projects. The group was given the name ’49ers’ around 1990.
 
The 49ers meet the first Monday night in each month in the Family Life Center at 6pm. Each meeting begins with our famous potluck dinners and is followed by a program.
 
They try to take one major trip each year. They’ve been to places like New Mexico, Georgia, Washington D.C., Colorado, Boston and New York. The trips they’ve taken together have been one of the most important ways to build trust, fellowship and foster true relationships among the group. They also enjoy spending time together while doing activities like: local over-night trips, day trips, museums, gardens, plays, dinner theaters, etc.
