“People of every age group can and do come to faith. That’s the evidence of the Talking Jesus research. Faith in Later Life helps us to see the mission field amongst those in the UK who are older. Evangelism takes us being intentional and Faith in Later Life can help resource us to get intentional and reach the older generations for Jesus.”

“London City Mission works on the front line, taking the message of Jesus to London’s least reached – and that includes older people.  I am delighted that Faith in Later Life will be commissioning resources to help us and others in the calling.”

Faith in Later Life provides a wonderful hub of resources for those in later life and those who minister to them. They speak on behalf of those in later life within and beyond the church. It has raised the profile of the needs and Christian ministry for those in later life and does a great job in networking, sharing experience and educating those involved in a wide variety of ministries to those in later life.

“A key element of PFS strategy is to be ready to support Churches and Christians in their caring, pastoral support and outreach work with older people in the community. We are therefore delighted to support Faith in Later Life as it seeks to inspire and equip people and churches in seniors’ ministry.”

“Starting, growing and resourcing work amongst seniors is a pressing need for the church in the UK. This focused initiative is an essential tool in our desire to see faith flourish amongst a much neglected segment of our population.”

“We are approached by many churches excited to hear about our work, some of whom have struggled to find us. “Faith in Later Life” will play a vital role in helping churches to connect with charities like ours that have developed a model of social action which could be a real asset to their ministry.” 

"What a huge gap is filled by Faith in Later Life! Not only for us ‘oldies’, but for all who care about us, its enthusiasm, expertise and help are the best. Great guidance and a sense of God’s love: I’m a fan!"

"As an older Christian myself, I want to feel as if I am a resource to the church, valued for the life experience I've had, and for what I've learned about God's love and presence throughout that journey. Faith in Later Life understands that - and encourages congregations not only to support older church members in their faith, but also to recognise the many ways in which this generation can make a positive contribution to people of all age groups and backgrounds within their church family."

"Although those in later life may be called the ‘silver generation’ or ‘golden-agers’ they are woefully undervalued by both society and the church. So I’m delighted to endorse Faith in Later Life to encourage and equip those in this season  of life, that their worth might be both realised and released."

It was great to have Alex with us in Northampton leading a seminar, and sharing about the ministry and mission of Faith in Later Life. There was so much in what Alex brought to us that was fresh, informative, as well as challenging, and it has helped us as a larger Baptist congregation consider fresh ways in which we might serve and be served by an often forgotten but vital part of our church’s life and witness. We hope to forge a deeper partnership with Faith in Later Life going forward.

“I am so behind the ministry of Faith in Later Life. The work they do with elders is so important and of such significance to the Kingdom. Do get behind them if you possibly can.”

“Parish Nursing Ministries UK knows the impact that Churches can have through our model of caring for people of all ages. We are excited about the potential of Faith in Later Life to increase the visibility of what Christian charities like ours can do with older people in partnership with local churches.”

“There is a great need for information that is based on solid Bible teaching and is proven in practice.  I applaud Faith in Later Life for being prepared to commission work of this kind where there are gaps, and to make what already exists more accessible.”
