What's Your Next Move? Luncheon
Community Fellowship
What’s Your Next Move? “Designing Your Own Roadmap to Aging”
Please join us after the 11 am worship service for WPC’s inaugural event to help us flourish physically, mentally, and spiritually through the later years of life.
We will gain wisdom from a moving personal story about the choices we make (or don’t make) from WPC member Sharon Jones, and from our speaker, Dr. Christine Jensen. Dr. Jenson is the Director of Health Services Research at the Martha W. Goodson Center of Riverside Health (formerly the Riverside Center for Excellence in Aging and Lifelong Health). She will give us an overview of aging expectations, realities, and the many resources available in Williamsburg for the opportunity to live our best life. Lunch will be served, and there is no charge. Please sign up using the Register button or in the Welcome Center.
