A Weekend To Remember

As we gracefully age and embark on the journey of retirement, many of us find ourselves seeking new purpose, deeper connections, and fulfilling experiences. Many churches have recognized this quest and are excited to offer you an opportunity to redefine your golden years through a life-affirming event: Oxygen For Life: A Retirement Reformation Weekend.

Our mission is to create a space where older adults feel valued, cherished, and appreciated for their wisdom, experience, and contributions to the church and society. The Oxygen For Life events aim to provide an environment where those aged 55 and above can reconnect with their spirituality, forge new friendships, and gain inspiration for living a fulfilling life during retirement.

What to Expect:

Friday Evening Gathering: The weekend will begin with an engaging talk by Bruce Bruinsma, Founder & CEO of Retirement Reformation. Bruce will address common misconceptions about retirement and present refreshing perspectives that pave the way for a life filled with meaning, purpose, and joy.

Saturday Breathe Deep Workshop: Dive deeper into the call to be faithful for a lifetime with Bruce as he explores five essential topics that shape the retirement journey. This workshop will encourage you to embrace love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, self-control, and generosity during your golden years. Pre-registration is encouraged, but walk-ins are welcome.

The transformative impact of Oxygen For Life events is best described by those who have attended:

  • “I realized that God does have a plan for me in my retirement!”

  • “Having had the chance to do nothing for a couple of years, I have found that that is misery. I am ready for more.”

  • “I have been lonely and bored. The days seemed like weeks. I now realize I don’t have to live like that.”

We cordially invite you to join us for these enlightening and uplifting events. Whether you are a retiree seeking new purpose or someone approaching retirement with questions and concerns, Oxygen For Life offers a unique opportunity to reinvigorate your spirit, broaden your horizons, and discover a new zest for life.

Don't miss this chance to redefine your golden years and be part of a community that values your wisdom, experience, and faith. Together, let's breathe new life into retirement and continue to serve God and our neighbors with love, joy, and purpose.
