55+ Community
If you or your spouse are age 55+ you're invited to join us! As our child raising and career demands are winding down, we may be in a unique position where we have more time, flexibility, and resources at our disposal than ever before. We may also encounter some difficult challenges as we maneuver through this life stage.
Team up with others in the 55+ Community and be encouraged to live a life of purpose as we make the most of this season of our lives. Check out our current groups and class offerings below.
Are you on Facebook? Join our Vineyard Cincinnati 55+ Facebook Group! Stay up-to-date on what's happening in this group, connect with others, and see photos from events.

Join us for a regular Bible study on Tuesday mornings from 10:30am-12:00pm or Tuesday evenings from 7:00pm-8:30pm in Area 2.4 (Vineyard Kids area near the Big Room).
For more information on Tuesday mornings, please contact Connie Neckers at neckers@vineyardcincinnati.com and for Tuesday evenings, please contact Gary Caudill at gpcaudill@yahoo.com.
