A Fellowship for Mature Christian Believers
Elders & Senior Citizens at the Gate is a Christian fellowship for mature believers aged 50 and above.
Members meet regularly for prayer, the study of God’s Word, fellowship, encouragement, and mutual support.
The fellowship also provides opportunities for members to learn, share their experiences, and continue developing spiritually, mentally, socially, and practically during their senior years.
