The Senior Luncheon Program The Senior Luncheon Program is a part of the LCM Out- reach Ministry. Each month, usually the third Friday, volunteers give their time and talents to provide home cooked meals for area seniors. The seniors who attend the monthly gathering have an opportunity to socialize with people their age and reminisce about days gone by. “I enjoy the Lighthouse Senior Luncheon because I get to meet with other seniors I have developed many friend- ships as a result,” said Linda Jurek. “We are served a warm meal, play games, get prizes and we don’t have to think about our problems for a little while.” Along with the hot meal, the volunteers prepare a specif- ic theme to coincide with the month. For instance, there is the usual theme for holidays such as Christmas, Hal- loween, St. Patrick’s Day and Valentine’s Day, but there are other fun and entertaining themes as well. The pho- tos to the right show our seniors enjoying the Paris Day outing with everyone wearing matching berets. The Senior Luncheon Program is held from 11:00 a.m.— 2:00 p.m. at Faith Assembly of God Church immediately across the street from the Lighthouse facility at 800 Grand Avenue in Bacliff. The luncheon is free and our senior neighbors are invited to attend.
