It Takes a (Senior) Village

Advent Christian Village is honored to be featured in the March 2019 edition of Christianity Today. This edition explores the shift from a retirement lifestyle primarily centered on leisure to that of a life of purpose. Nowhere is an emphasis on meaningful living more evident than at Advent Christian Village. The article describes the 105-year history of ACV and its focus on ministry.

The article highlights the humble beginnings of ACV, current opportunities available, several members and their stories of how they found the Village, employees’ perspectives and more.

Christianity Today was founded by Billy Graham in 1956. The magazine strives to help evangelicals understand the gospel and the world around us in order to effectively share the Word throughout the world in all spheres of life.

If you would like to read the full article but do not have a subscription to Christianity Today, it is available on our website here.
