Senior Friendly Club

Our Senior Citizens ministry at Wallburg Baptist Church offers a time of fellowship for those who consider themself a senior adult. Mrs. Jessie Bryant organized the senior citizens ministry for our church in 1979 and under her leadership this ministry decided on the name Friendly Club.
The Senior Citizens Friendly Club at Wallburg Baptist Church meets monthly for a time of fellowship. We have meals, movies, information sessions and more. We often meet to go out to lunch and sometimes take a day trip.
Our annual Senior Adult Vacation Bible School is held each year in August. We enjoy a weeklong adventure that includes guest speakers, Bible study, crafts, food, door prizes, fun and fellowship.
Our annual mission project is preparing care packages for the patients under the care of Hospice of Davidson County., We have enjoyed this project for over 30 years, and it takes place during our annual Thanksgiving luncheon in November. We have guest speakers from Hospice of Davidson County who join us for this event, and we present the care packages to them during this time.
We invite anyone who would like to join us for our activities and meetings to come and enjoy a time of Christian fellowship together.

45 Years of Senior Citizens Ministry
This year marks 45 years since our Senior Citizens Ministry began at Wallburg Baptist Church. In 1979, Mrs. Jessie Bryant saw the need for there to be a ministry that focused on the senior adults of our church and the importance of their contributions to the church. Later, once this ministry was established, the group decided they needed a name instead of simply referring to themselves as the senior citizens of the church and so the name "Friendly Club" was chosen at their annual Valentine luncheon and party in 1986.
Our Senior Citizens Friendly Club meets monthly for activities such as luncheons, afternoon movie fellowships and day trips. We have mission projects that we do throughout the year such as preparing treat bags for the Mills Home kids and the patients under the care of      Hospice of Davidson County. In August, we have a week of Sr. Adult Vacation Bible School that includes guest speakers and lunch being provided after each session. If you consider yourself to be a senior adult, we would love for you to join us. If you have any questions about our church's senior citizens ministry you can contact me,
