SENIOR ADVENTURES
IN MINISTRY (SeniorAIM)

SeniorAIM is a ministry designed for retired and semi‑retired Christians who want to continue serving the Lord in meaningful ways. Students study the Bible and related topics in depth, with a focus on how God’s Word applies to life today.

With years of wisdom and experience, senior Christians have much to offer. SeniorAIM helps them unite their knowledge, perspective, and resources with biblical training to expand their capacity for ministry.

SeniorAIM is designed to:

  • Engage Christians in spiritual growth and service through teaching and short‑term mission efforts.

  • Encourage individuals to use life experiences and skills to promote God’s kingdom.

  • Edify disciples with deeper understanding of scripture and stronger fellowship.

SeniorAIMers serve anywhere — across town, across the country, or across the world. They participate in evangelistic campaigns, teach in congregations, support benevolent efforts, and contribute to the Kingdom in countless ways.

Because seniors know it’s not just about where they’ve been — it’s about where God is leading them next.
