Jesus reminded us of the blessings that come with being generous and wide reaching when it comes to inviting and welcoming people
The winter season brings lots of opportunities for individuals and churches to invite their older neighbours. Christmas and Easter are the obvious ones, but there are other winter warming welcomes too
Then Jesus said to his host, “When you give a luncheon or dinner, do not invite your friends, your brothers or sisters, your relatives, or your rich neighbors; if you do, they may invite you back and so you will be repaid. But when you give a banquet, invite the poor, the crippled, the lame, the blind, and you will be blessed. Although they cannot repay you, you will be repaid at the resurrection of the righteous.
Luke 14:12-14
Easter Sunday and some of the church activities around the celebration are often brilliant opportunities for older friends and neighbours who are unfamiliar with church to come and explore what it's all about.
Some churches print special invitation cards for members to share with neighbours. If yours doesn't, why not send an Easter Card and include your own invitation?
The Hymns We Love series uses well-loved hymns to share the gospel and key truths about God’s character. Many older adults grew up singing these hymns and reigniting those memories is an ideal way to engage with seniors and help them understand the Christian message.
A brilliant resource for churches preparing to welcome new older people during Love My Neighbour to church, or leading services in local care homes. Find out more here.
Inviting your older neighbours for a cup of tea and hot cross bun or other seasonal treat is a lovely way for all involved to spend a wintery morning or an afternoon. Invite them to your home or offer to take them to a local cafe or garden center.
Our CEO, Alexandra, has regularly enjoyed a cosy December afternoon in her home with her 3 older neighbours. Serving simple mulled wine and mince pies, she says, "It's always such a jolly afternoon, and everyone really appreciates it, including me!".
