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.

YAH Luncheon–May 8, 2012

We enjoyed a terrific program today by Resounding Joy from the Dayton Christian High School. For those that are not aware, Dayton Christian Schools is one of the largest Christian school systems in the USA with campuses in Miamisburg (south of the Dayton Mall) and Xenia (on the Legacy Ministries Campus). The system provides education for K-12. All three of our daughters graduated from Dayton Christian.

These young men and women recently performed in Washington DC. Since we are taking our Young at Heart there this fall, we’re hoping they impacted the community so they will be prepared for us! More importantly, maybe they had a positive impact on our leadership in Washington! After all, these are our future leaders!

The music was fantastic and I really enjoyed every bit of it. We also had very good comments from our audience. One of our homes is also interested in having them perform for them. Unfortunately, I believe these students will be finishing school very soon, so this will need to wait. Anyway, we are sure to have them return again. We bring in one or two DCS groups every year.

The group also included their own instrumentalists (guitars, keyboard and drums) and a young lady doing signing.

Of course, it is all about the singing! The choir, led by Tracy Miller, did an awesome job.

Following the program, we moved into our big dining room (the gym) for a very nice Cinco de Mayo luncheon! As always, our kitchen staff and dining room staff, did a great job!

Next month on June 5th (note normally our luncheons are the second Tuesday but this one is the first) we will have another of our Young at Heart favorites. Stan the Magic Man will return to our platform. I keep threatening to have him saw someone in two. The teens thought this would be cool! Any volunteers?
