This issue of Reaching Rural America for Christ focuses on how rural and small-town churches in America are poised to become the spiritual renewal center for older adult ministries.

As a result, the Church must become more intentional about enabling people to see aging as a blessing to celebrate, rather than a burden to endure.

Rural and small-town congregations can be laboratories for all generations by teaching and modeling what the Church is all about, and they can connect people of all ages and encourage them to complete the ministry God has created for them to do.

The newsletter also offers information about ongoing Engaging the Wandering (ETW) events, Engaging Your Community (EYC) events and free monthly webinars.
