ADULT MINISTRIES AGES 55 & UP
It’s always time to live your best life. That includes your 55+ years. At Hayes Barton Baptist Church, our Adult Ministries Aged 55 & Up group offers plenty of opportunities for fellowship, fun, learning and so much more.
Monthly activities include luncheon meetings with special guest speakers and entertainers, daytrips around the area and overnight excursions. And we offer opportunities to gather, give, serve and grow.
We’re proud to have one of the most active, vibrant and welcoming senior adult fellowship communities in the area. You’re sure to find activities that interest you.
