Seniors
The purpose of the Senior Saints of Cape Carteret Baptist Church is a focused ministry to those 50 and over, who are part of our fellowship, as well as an outreach ministry to our community.
Mission
Through this ministry, we hope to encourage older adults to commit their lives to a personal love relationship with God; to be a part of God’s family and develop healthy relationships with others; to continue growing in their Christian walk; to use their gifts, talents, and abilities in active ministry; to tell others about Christ; and, to enjoy life through opportunities for fellowship and fun.
