WORKSHOPS:

OPENING PRESENTATION:

CREATIVE EXPRESSION (WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON):

Page 4: ATIONAL ONFERENCE SAVORING THE JOURNEY€¦ · Faith, Hope and Good Mental Health: Mental health is important to everyone, and it is true that all of us experience challenges in life

Faith, Hope and Good Mental Health: Mental health is important to everyone, and it is true that all of us experience challenges in life that may undermine good mental health. Some of us get stuck. Faith, Hope and Wholeness (FHW) is a Christian curriculum for adults that creates opportunities to experience spiritual practices that can lift the spirit and refresh the soul. Participants will learn about mental health and mental illness in older adults by experiencing the FHW method. Leader: Rev. Kathy Dale McNair is a specialized minister in the PCUSA, focusing on mental health ministries. She is the creator of Faith, Hope and Wellness, and she is on the National FaithNet Advisory Group for NAMI, the National Association on Mental Illness.

The Spiritual Practice of Listening: Vivek Murthy, US Surgeon General under President Barack Obama has identified loneliness as the number one health risk in the nation. As America becomes a more gero-centric culture, isolation will become a critical issue to address. The church has a long tradition of gathering people and creating a community. This workshop shall address the need for, and the practice of listening to engage life-long reflection as a spiritual discipline. Leader: Rev. Douglas Edwards is Director of Church Outreach for HumanGood, a non-profit organization providing retirement living in the Western United States. He is an ordained minister who has worked at all levels of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.).

Older Adults Addressing the Broken Heart of Jesus in Our Communities: Using Matthew 9:35-38, the workshop will demonstrate how transforming discipleship leads to mission. Examine how older adults grow as disciples and help congregations reach hurting people in the community. Jesus invested in his early followers so they would go where he intended to go. Their lives were transformed by his life, and they were sent out to bear witness to this new life in Christ. By the power of the Holy Spirit, they joined Jesus’ ministry of healing the sick, welcoming the stranger, and walking with the marginalized. In North America, discipleship is often understood as receiving information that will improve one’s spiritual life. Many North American Christians understand discipleship as their “church” experience, which is separate from and has little influence on the rest of their lives. Therefore, discipleship is disconnected from mission. Leader: Rev. Ray Jones is the acting director of Theology, Formation and Evangelism for the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.).

Building an Intergenerational Church Community: Discuss and participate in detail how to execute the following intergenerational activities: Life (Faith) Interviews - a partnership between an older adult and a youth, using personal pictures and interview questions to learn about each other’s lives. Combined Confirmation Retreat - learn how to organize and run a retreat at a local church or at a senior living community. Interactive Worship - discuss specific ideas where older adults and youth can lead worship together. Fun Creative Physical Activities - learn safe, fun and easy activities that older adults and youth can do together, such as chair volleyball. Leaders: Mr. Bryce Elliott is Church Relations Director, & Ms. Nancy Rajos is Vice President of Marketing and Business Development, for United Adult Ministries, a mission of the Presbytery of Long Island.

Sing Me to Heaven: Music and Faith Formation for Older Adults: Music is a way we tune our hearts to sing God’s praise. It forms the soundtrack of our lives, both in and out of church. Come explore why music matters in faith formation into older adulthood and ways to use popular and sacred music from all ages and stages of our lives in faith formation. Leader: Rev. Dr. Sarah Erickson is a clergy member of the Presbytery of South Alabama serving as Director of Lifelong Learning at Columbia Theological Seminary in Decatur, GA.

Leaving Your Faith Legacy: Many of us want to feel our good will and good work can live on, even beyond our lifetime. But what is the best way to plan for this? Can we care for the needs of a spouse, children, and grandchildren, and still make a meaningful charitable gift? Engage in a discussion about what it means to make a legacy gift. We’ll discuss our responsibility to our children (and other dependents) as our heirs – how much inheritance is enough, and is there such a thing as too much? We’ll learn about some of the generous provisions being made by Presbyterians today to help assure the vibrant mission and ministry of the Church, and we’ll contemplate what God may be calling us to do as we look to the future. Leader: Ms. Sherry Hester Kenney, is the Ministry Relations Officer with the Presbyterian Foundation for Colorado, Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas and Louisiana.

Chaplain’s Track: Military Chaplaincy: Throughout American history, the military has employed chaplains to provide religious services to the men and women who defend the United States. There has been much debate over military chaplaincy, including legal challenges to its constitutionality. This workshop will examine both the legal underpinnings and the practical issues faced by chaplains and the military services as they seek to provide ways for military personnel to freely exercise their faith, or to be free from any requirement to exercise a religious faith. Leader: Rev. Dr. Larry Greenslit, retired Navy Chaplain.

WORKSHOPS CONTINUED:

Chaplain’s Track: Palliative and Hospice Care - An Introduction: Gain basic knowledge about the advantages of Palliative medicine and Hospice Care to be able to guide and inform congregants, residents and families in making informed choices in end of life care. Leader: Rev. Tom Summers, Chaplain at Rydal Park a Continuing Care Retirement Community in suburban Philadelphia, a part of the ministry of Presby’s Inspired Life.

We All Belong to God: Become a Dementia Friendly Congregation in Worship, Fellowship and Care: Statistically speaking, up to 10 percent of your congregation members over the age of 65 are living with dementia. How can we understand their experience and provide spiritual care, offer suitable worship and fellowship and retain their connection to congregational life? Learn about dementia and how it impacts individuals and their caregivers. Receive new ideas about reaching out in care, creating worship with a spiritual focus rather than a cognitive orientation, and strengthening your ministry to members and families living with dementia. Leaders: Rev. Cynthia Ray is a minister in the PCUSA, serving as Executive Director of the Presbyterian Association of Homes & Services for the Aging (PAHSA). She is a member of the Dementia Friendly America National Council and is a Dementia Champion who leads community information sessions about creating dementia friendly communities. Rev. Dr. William Randolph is formerly the Director of the Office on Aging and Older Adult Ministry for Discipleship Ministries of the United Methodist Church, Discipleship Ministries. He is a member of Clergy Against Alzheimer’s which is forming a Handbook of Dementia Worship.

Who Cares About Older Adult Ministry? Helping Church Leaders Better Understand the Value of Ministry With Older Adults in the Context of Today’s Youth Culture: Often the greatest obstacle to having effective older adult ministry is church leaders who direct great resources to attracting young people while overlooking older adults. Get tools to help influence church leaders to recognize the power of aging disciples and to remember that faith formation does not end in middle age. Leader: Ms. Missy Buchanan is a co-author of My Story, My Song with Robin Roberts, co-anchor of Good Morning America, and Robin’s mother, Lucimarian Roberts. As an advocate for older adults, she is also the author of several bestselling books, and in the past has written for the United Methodist Reporter and Presbyterians Today.

Sharing Story in the Journey of Aging: Telling one’s story and leaving a legacy has long been part of religious traditions and passing on history between generations. Persons examine their own beliefs and values, especially while passing through transitions, and leave a legacy to future generations. Ideas for sharing story for individuals with their families and within congregations will be shared. Learn how to utilize tools to facilitate meaningful story-telling and practice using them. Leader: Ms. Marty Richards has been a Social Worker and Educator for over 50 years. She is a retired affiliate assistant professor from the University of Washington School of Social Work and Institute on Aging.

Dealing with Dementia with Grace: The impact of dementia can be felt in the empty pews in churches across the nation. Congregations struggle to find ways to support families living with the disease. The Dealing with Dementia with Grace Program provides church leadership with means to empower their congregation’s family and professional caregivers in managing the challenges of dementia. The Rosalynn Carter Institute for Caregiving is partnering with churches across the country to provide this much needed resource to their congregation. Leaders: Ms. Gayle Alston is leading the Dealing with Dementia Project, providing training for the Rosalynn Carter Institute’s newly created comprehensive reference guide to dementia family and professional caregivers. Ms. Pat Baker is Director of Health & Human Services for Gwinnett County, GA which includes Gwinnett Senior Services. Pat serves as POAMN’s Certification Leader.

Older Adult Ministry Certificate Capstone Projects: 1). Planning for Peace: Facing the Inevitable was designed to help older adults find peace as they draw closer to their end of life. It deals with basics of communicating wishes to doctors and family members and provides guidelines to make decisions from a strong spiritual base. Participants will have access to lesson plans and resources to help the older adults in their congregation find a way to peace. Leader: Ms. Pepe Bowman is a graduate of the Older Adult Ministry Certificate program. She currently serves as an elder at Fayette, GA, Presbyterian Church, is active in Presbyterian Women, and heads up the Smart Lunch Smart Kid Summer Lunch Program. 2). Growing a Church Through Older Adult Ministry will discuss the ways in which churches grow, how to determine which programs your older adults may be interested in doing, scheduling and implementing the programs, and assessment of the programs. Samples will be available. Leader: Rev. Lynne Trout is a graduate of the Older Adult Ministry Certificate program, and the current Treasurer of POAMN. She retired from being a pastor of First Presbyterian Church of Delanco, NJ, in 2014 when the church closed its doors.
