The Impact of Senior Living Ministries
The following stories give a glimpse of the scope of our ministry to seniors. If
you would like to know more about how we serve, or if you have a loved one who
needs encouragement, click the "Contact Us" link on any page of this
web site to get in touch with a Senior Living Ministries volunteer.
Virginia and Warren have ministered to me personally through prayer, hospital
visitation, calls, notes of encouragement, and wise counseling. I've also been
greatly blessed to be a witness to this team in action, leading Bible studies,
witnessing, baptizing, [and] conducting weddings and funerals. They have a
strong trust and deep faith as well as a God-centered joy.
I was in the hospital recuperating from a seven-hour heart bypass, when someone
knocked on my door and there stood my old friend Warren Olson. It was such an
uplifting experience to see his smiling face and hear his words of
encouragement...
We were privileged to have Lee Ezell speak to us...at our Christmas event...and
she is always enthusiastic and weaves [the] Gospel message into her very
exciting life story. The occasion seemed to generate excitement for the seniors
in Leisure World, as they agreed this was a good way to start the holiday
season. They enjoyed the program and as they left, [they] were asking when the
next event would take place.
There was a very special couple in our Bible class. I received a phone call
from the husband saying that his wife had unexpectedly passed away during the
night. I went to his home immediately, and encouraged and ministered to him. I
conducted the memorial service and shared Christ's love with family and
friends.

Helping Churches with Senior Programs
Putting together an effective church visitation program, as well as senior adult
programs can be challenging for even experienced ministry staff. Reaching and
serving this highly sensitive group within the church is accomplished most
effectively when guided by experienced ministry leaders.
As the previous Seniors' Pastor for South Coast Community Church and Care Pastor
of Mariner's Church in Irvine, Senior Living Ministries founder Warren
Olson brings years of experience that can help you build a successful senior
ministry program in your church. An important part of our ministry is
consulting with churches to bring ideas and concrete direction to ramp up these
ministries and make them as effective as possible.
