The Golden Oldies ministry meets every fourth Friday of the month at 10:30 AM and is for retired adults, although all ages are welcome to attend.

The ministry invites local musical talent to come and lead in a time of worship and entertainment. In many ways, it is a mini-concert by those invited to perform.
