Adult Ministries

Sunday School

Olivet has a Sunday School class for every age group. 

From September through to the end of June, our Sunday School ministry takes place at 10:00 am Sunday mornings at various locations throughout the building.  In addition to children’s classes and separate Junior and Senior High classes, there is 3 options for adults. 

Ladies Class; This class is studying James MacDonald's "Turning Your Trials to Gold" this study is based on the theme verse Job 23:10 "But he knows the way that I take; when he has tested me, I will come forth as gold" Each week we listen to a CD, then A discussion and prayer time follows. come join us as we study James MacDonald through till mid April.

Men’s Class; We are looking into the Book of Amos, Chapters 1 through 9, studying A prophet that was not taken seriously. we will be studying this book until the end of March or Early April.  Come and hear about this interesting book.

Adult Fellowship

The Adult Fellowship Committee organizes a event every 4 to 6 weeks, usually on a Friday or Saturday evening. These social occasions allow the adults of the church to get better acquainted with one another in a relaxed setting.  Also, they provide the perfect opportunity to invite friends and neighbors to get to know our church family in a non-threatening environment. Everyone seems to enjoy the great food and great laughter. 

Some of our past events include: mini-putt, Games Night, Car Rallies, bowling, hikes on the Bruce Trail, Riding Toy Museum tours, Guess-Who's-Coming-to-Dessert Night, baseball tournaments, canoe trips, and The Price Is Right Night. Check out our Event Calendar for information on the next event.

Seniors

Olivet has a good number of seniors with a wide variety of talents and skills.  We are very thankful for the dedication and experience of these folks.  Many seniors serve in various ministry roles throughout the church, from up-front leadership roles with children to background roles cutting grass or doing building repairs.  Seniors form the backbone of Olivet’s prayer efforts as well.  Many of our seniors take part in the inter church ministry called Joy 2000, a monthly social outing with seniors from other churches in Meaford. 

We also have our own special seniors’ get-together with a very unique name—the “Mmmm” Ministry.  This stands for the “Monthly Mid-day Meal and Meeting” which is currently held once each month at 12 noon, either on a Wednesday or Thursday at Georgian Bay Café, a favourite restaurant for many of our church people.  This easy-going and light-hearted get together gives an opportunity for our seniors to enjoy a lunch and fellowship time together at a very reasonable cost.  Please see our Event Calendar for this month's meeting.
