Exciting things are happening at the Cedars Retirement Community in McPherson, Kan. A group of dedicated folk are making plans for a great National Older Adult Conference (NOAC) experience on Sept. 6-10.
Since we cannot meet in person as usual at Lake Junaluska, N.C., they are creating their own National Older Adult Conference event, sponsored by the Cedars, McPherson Church of the Brethren, and McPherson College.
Plans include: meeting together in a banquet room to watch the Bible studies, keynote speakers, and worship services on a big screen. They will have two locations for viewing the workshops. The Cedars is providing a meal plan for the week. They have reserved rooms at a local hotel for out of towners. The McPherson College “virtual” ice cream social will feature delicious “real” ice cream.
If you would like more information, send an email to NOAC@brethren.org. NOAC 2021 registration is open at www.brethren.org/noac.
