Seniors Ministry

On Sunday November 1, 2026, the seniors ministry held their Oakville Firefighters event at Bronte church.

The captain Shawne Jarvis of the Oakville Fire Department, brought his team of firefighters to Bronte to demonstrate the functionality of the truck.

They also demonstrated how fast they needed to put on their gear when an emergency call is received, which is within 2 minutes or less.

They also answered all of the seniors’ questions, and took pictures with us as well as with some of the seniors.

We were then provided with a presentation by Mr. Sean Grech, the Public Education & Specialist Projects Officer about the many causes of fires in the home, and preventative measures to be taken.

It was an excellent presentation, and Sean was very thorough and knowledgeable about how to manage any emergency situation in the home. He provided many safety tips which included videos.

The seniors told me how much they thoroughly appreciated and enjoyed the program.

It was a great success.

As you know, the Seniors’ Ministry organized a trip for the seniors to the Grand River Cruise on Sunday July 5th. We all had a wonderful day and it was do much fun.

Here are some photos from the Grand River Cruise of the seniors enjoying fellowship and a relaxing cruise. We enjoyed a three course meal on board and the captain provided us with some history about the River. It was very interesting.

We held the National Seniors Day on Sabbath where pastor Mansfield Edwards preached and then we had a lunch for the seniors.

On Sunday August 21, 2022 the Seniors Ministry held its second event with Personal Trainer Amanda Cameron who demonstrated to the seniors how to get up safely should they fall down.

In addition she showed them different exercises to strengthen their bodies and everyone had a great time going through the exercises, and then had some delicious food and desserts. We were blessed with special music and ended the afternoon in a very positive note. Two prizes were awarded to our seniors for providing the correct answers to some quiz questions.

The Seniors Ministry held its first event for 2022 on Sunday July 24, 2022, and it was a success. Everyone had lots to eat and had fun with the interactive activities that were prepared for them.
