I am a Grandparent
The following initiatives and resources are designed to help Grandparents to thrive in their Parenting / Grand-parenting roles.
Our Heart for Grandparents
Today, we live in a world that is messy and confused. Universal truths of yesteryears, are being re-defined today. The concept of the traditional family unit as well as marriage is being scrutinised and rejected by today’s generation. Love is however you make it out to be. On top of that, the world we live in is increasingly more volatile. We see conflicts in various nations. Job security is not longer a guarantee. The stress levels of raising a family is at an all time high.
It is for these reasons that Grandparents play such an important role in the physical and spiritual family. The younger generations need “signposts” that can show them how to walk in today’s day and age. The younger generation needs the wisdom of the older generation.
Our heart for every grandparent in the church is that you will be a “Caleb” - valiant in showing the way to walk for the next generation. Your golden years are not “retirement” years. Rather, it is a different season - one of supporting and empowering the next generation. May you rise up and be a Caleb to the next generation!
“Even when I am old and grey, do not forsake me, my God, till I declare Your power to the next generation, Your mighty acts to all who are to come.”
- Psalm 71:18 (NIV)
Events for Grandparents
From time to time, RiverLife will organise initiatives to equip, resource and gather grandparents for community. We are currently planning for the various initiatives to be launched. Therefore, there are no initiatives at the moment for grandparents. However, do stay tuned and we will update you once the initiatives have launched.
