YAH Purpose

The Young at Heart Ministry is for Senior Adults (those past retirement age) in the Dayton, Ohio area. We provide times of fellowship and entertainment during our monthly Luncheons. We also provide the opportunity to see interesting places and things around the area during our monthly Day Trips. Once a year (sometimes more frequently) we offer a longer trip to see areas far from Dayton. All of our programs are designed to be honoring to our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

February 8, 2013 – Luncheon with Dave Harney

Our February Luncheon program was a very good one with one of our favorite musicians, Dave Harney. Dave is a excellent soloist and also sings with Gospel Quartet groups. He has been performing with Young at Heart since before I came on the scene! He and his wife Mary are always welcomed warmly to our programs.

Dave sang a good number of his songs along with several of his newest ones that are featured in his latest album.

Dave has been heavily involved with Christian ministry for over 30 years. First, he was a youth pastor, then he added the music ministry to his repertoire and became a choir leader. He has been doing this current ministry now for 8 years. I don’t know when he first started singing for Young at Heart but it was before my time started here over 5 years ago.

I recorded a couple of videos of his music, so if you missed this concert, here’s one to watch.

We also recorded the entire program. Listen, HERE.

Next month we will feature a new group for us. New Horizons, a senior citizens band, will bring their music to Young @ Heart. They are associated with the University of Dayton and they’re always looking for new talent. If you are interested, check out the Continuing Education Department at UD! More importantly, come and join us for our February Luncheon. This will make a great Valentines program!
