πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ Domestic Senior Ministry Series #5

Title: Hearts Together: Widow & Widower Fellowship at GraceLife Church (Tampa, FL)

Overview:
GraceLife Church in Tampa, Florida, offers a beautiful ministry for seniors who have experienced the deep grief of losing a spouse. The Hearts Together Fellowship provides spiritual companionship, healing, and community for widows and widowers walking through the valley of loss.

Ministry Highlights:

  • Monthly Fellowship Luncheon: A warm meal and guided conversation allow members to share their stories, memories, and encouragement with others who understand.

  • Grief & Grace Workshops: A 6-week series offered twice a year helps seniors process grief biblically and move toward emotional and spiritual restoration.

  • Prayer Partners: Each member is paired with another widow(er) for regular prayer, phone check-ins, and spiritual encouragement.

  • Legacy Projects: Seniors are invited to participate in legacy-sharing projects like writing letters to grandchildren, creating photo books, or recording testimonies.

Impact:
Many seniors have found renewed purpose and joy through the friendships and healing offered in this ministry. Rather than being forgotten, widows and widowers are honored as people with enduring wisdom and stories that matter.

Why It Matters:
Grief can isolate, especially in later years. Hearts Together breaks through that isolation and gently walks with seniors into healing, hope, and new purpose rooted in Christ.
