A Mission-shaped Church for Older People?
Practical Suggestions for Local Churches
A new resource for churches from Church Army and The Leveson Centre
This readily accessible resource should be invaluable for anyone who wants to think about the issues, problems and opportunities posed by an ageing population and then to take action. In his Foreword Dr John Sentamu says ‘The way the book is set out will be warmly welcomed by busy and hard-pressed church leaders. In the first part, three modules (thirteen sessions including an introduction) are explained and planned - the leader has simply to familiarise themselves with the content and provide supportive material for each session. The second part contains a whole range of helpful related material which should be placed in the hands of anyone who ministers among older people: the range is quite extraordinary.
This new resource is a joint venture through close collaboration between Church Army and the Leveson Centre for the Study of Ageing, Spirituality and Social Policy. It includes some of the material from an earlier Church Army manual, revised and updated, together with a considerable number of newly written chapters covering a wide range of relevant topics resulting from the first hand experience of the authors.
