AnnotationThis is the third in a series dealing with ageing and ministry with older people, and based on the experience of a unique programme undertaken by the Presbyterian Church (USA). The increasing number of older people in the church draws attention to the need, while Biblical teachings and theological understandings provide the foundation for ministry. This book discusses why it is necessary to develop programmes for older people, examines some facts and myths about them, and shows how to make a congregational profile as a basis for the ministry.
