Senior Ministries- O.W.L.S- Older, Wiser, Lively Servants
St. Paul’s OWLS – Older, Wiser, Lively Servants
The OWLS ministry took a break for the summer but as the weather cools, we once again look forward to you joining us. If you are new to St. Paul’s, please consider OWLS as a way to connect. We exist to promote the wellbeing of senior members through fellowship, to ensure no one is lost or forgotten, and to make available resources pertinent to OWLS. We want to provide opportunities for service, social, and physical activities.
Our acronym stands for Older Wiser Livelier Servants.
We are planning many different occasions to travel or connect and hope that there will be at least one event that will be of interest to each of you.
Fellowship – is a high priority for OWLS. A schedule of weekly and monthly activities allow members to connect to one another through book clubs, exercise classes, game days, speaker programs and classes.
Discipleship – encouragement in God’s word through classes and bible studies
Outreach – carrying out the Great Commission; allowing others to see Christ in action through us as we form strategic partnerships with other ministries within St. Paul’s and with organizations within the Summerville community.
