CHRISTIANS ON AGEING:  a resource to the Churches 

A VOICE FOR OLDER PEOPLE AND THEIR LIFE OF FAITH AND HOPE

Membership

Christians on Ageing  is a registered charity and membership association.  Details about what we do and how the organisation is run can be found on the page About Us and in our Governing Document.

The aim of the organisation is to provide a resource to the Churches in aspects of age and ageing.  It does this through providing information, especially through this website; through publications; through establishing networks; and through talks, conferences and engagement with others.  It is an ecumenical body with links to all the main Christian Churches.

Christians on Ageing relies on the income from the subscriptions of its members, sales of publications and donations. If you wish to support our work please consider becoming a member. It only costs £18 per year. The membership subscription is the same whether you are joining as an individual or on behalf of an organisation.

Reflect and Pray

An angle on Advent

Advent, the time of waiting.  That’s what all the prayers and reflections tell us.  What they don’t tell us is that waiting is tedious and can make us anxious as well as expectant – and often ends in disappointment.  The waiting of Advent is made more bearable because, from one angle, we know what is at the end of it – the remembrance of the birth of Jesus, the Word made flesh.  That’s good news.  But, the other aspect of Advent is not so easy: waiting for the time when time ends, the end of days, the coming of Christ again.  That’s the one to keep us on our toes, watching, wondering – and, waiting.
