Adult Ministry

HUGS, our non-denominational senior outreach ministry kicks off in October and concludes in April. HUGS offers socialization, stimulation, and a wholesome environment for senior adults living with family members, alone, or in residential care facilities in the Northwest region of Tucson.  Our facilities on the NE Campus accommodate wheelchairs and walkers, but participants must be capable of taking care of their personal physical needs. We gather at 10:15 am and our morning fun ends at 12:45 pm and includes a healthy lunch for only $4.

This is an opportunity for Seniors to enjoy fellowship with others. Come and enjoy singing, devotions, games, educational programs, entertainment and occasional visits from our St. Andrew’s Preschool/Kindergarten children.

When: Wednesdays | 10:15 am – 12:45 pm
Where: Friendship Hall

Team World Vision is a ministry partner where we gather as friends and train together to run the Phoenix Marathon or Half-Marathon, all while raising money to support World Vision’s goal to provide everyone in the world with access to clean drinking water! The training is for all ages and abilities and designed for people who have no experience running races. During the 18 weeks of training, we will meet on Saturdays for a community group run, prayer time, and support.

Widows & More is a group where ladies, whether widowed, divorced, caregivers for a spouse with memory lost, or have lost a partner in some way, gather together for friendship, support, and fun. Our mission statement is to encourage, be supportive, and be compassionate.

LUNCHEONS
Meet on the first Thursday of the month rotating at 12 various restaurants. Contact Charlotte Smith at Cbsmith400@gmail.com for restaurant location and more information.

Widows & More also play Mahjong, go to the movies, concerts, sporting events, and field trips as planned. The last year we had a field trip to see the cranes in Willcox, San Xavier Mission, UA baseball games, & a Fever Concert. We are planning a night tour of Sabino Canyon and a trip to the UA planetarium. Anything we can organize and the ladies are interested in.
