Transformative Events:
The Journey into Elderhood Weekend (Co-Ed 55+)
August 15-17, 2025 Mt. St. Francis Center for Spirituality, Mt. St. Francis, IN
This event is open to all who are 55 years of age and older, previously attending Men or Women at the Cross is not a requirement.
“Journey into Elderhood” is designed to call forth the elder presence within you for the sake of your family, community and the world. Most of us have not been mentored by our elders. The consequence is that we are not confident and empowered to manifest an “elder presence.” A common question is: “What does it mean to be an elder and how do I become a mature elder in life?” There is a part of us that yearns for these answers so that we are fully engaged in our purpose in this latter stage of life. Do you hunger for this?
Without the mature elder presence in the world, younger people in our sphere of influence are not shown the way to maturity. The world needs mature men who are anchored in their identity and who have clarity about what they have to offer to their world. Would you like to have a vision for what this means for you?
Our goal for this journey is:
- To ignite a vision within for who we are as older members of our community
- To help bring to maturity in our community
- To honor and encourage you
- To inspire you to impact the world around you with your presence.
