Senior Adults are an important people group at CBC. Our senior adults' ministry provides opportunities for the seniors to grow in their relationship with God through Bible study. We encourage our seniors to stay active through fellowship and activities throughout the year; the Boomers and Bereans Fellowship seeks to meet these needs of our senior adults.
Sunday School
Various Sunday School classes are offered for this age group. We offer classes both in English (Bereans) and Chinese (Cantonese and Mandarin 粵語和国语), taught by caring teachers. The Bereans Sunday School, combined with the Boomers class, is held every Sunday at 11:15 am to study relevant Biblical topics and to apply Biblical principles in our relationships. For more information about any of these classes, please visit the Sunday School page for 英語 or 中文.
Outreach
Our seniors have been instrumental in various church functions and community outreach programs. They sponsor and serve during the annual Chinese New Year Luncheons. The Bereans Sunday School class coordinates the Seaman's Project, an annual Christmas outreach ministry with care packages donated to seamen at the Port of Houston. They share the Christmas spirit and message with caroling at various senior resident homes and connect with Baptist Student Ministries at various universities through luncheons.
Senior Fellowship
Our seniors are a fun-loving group who like to go out and explore new things. Periodic one-day trips and longer trips are planned throughout the year. Recent trips have included San Antonio, Lake Jackson, Austin and various locations in the Houston area.
