How to handle the changes of later years with hope and dignity.


For all of us life is a journey. From the womb to the tomb, we journey through life creating relationships, forging memories and amassing possessions. The Bible says:


I will be your God throughout your lifetime – until your hair is white with age. I made you, and I will care for you. I will carry you along and save you Isaiah 46:4


For each one of us to continue to have a purpose and bear fruit is really important.

This course is designed to help us focus on the home straight and enable us to finish well.


Join a weekly 6-session, interactive course on Zoom including:

  • What does it mean to grow old?

  • How can I embrace the increasing changes in later life?

  • What do I have to look forward to?

  • What would I like on my tombstone?

  • What will be my legacy?

Who is it for?: 'Older people'; to explore the many opportunities of our later years, but also addressing some of the more challenging realities of ageing.


When?: Monday afternoons, 2–3.30pm, 10, 17 and 24 May and 7, 14 and 21 June 2021


Where: On Zoom – from the comfort of your own homes!

One of the great gifts of Christian spirituality is its encouragement to pause, take a moment for thought and to reflect deeply on what matters most. The Omega Course does just this: it creates a space for us to pause and to think about later life and the story we want to tell through our days. I commend it to you. Jonathan Frost, Dean of York (formerly Bishop of Southampton)
