Intergenerational Activities
We recognise the vital importance of intergenerational activities at Mossvale. As a church family, we have many opportunities to develop this.
Intergenerational practice aims to bring people together in purposeful, mutually beneficial activities which promote greater understanding and respect between generations and contributes to building more cohesive communities. Intergenerational practice is inclusive, building on the positive resources that the younger and older have to offer each other and those around them. (Beth Johnson Foundation, 2009)
We believe at Mossvale we experience together:
- intergenerational worship
- intergenerational fellowship
- intergenerationl learning
- Intergenerational celebration
We do this through a range of events and groups such as:
- Sunday Services / Family Services
- Bubblegum & Fluff / Easter Code
- Sewing2gether All Nations
- Ailsa Court monthly service
- And special events such as concerts, parties etc
For #IntergenerationalWeek 2021, our Kids Connection are making Easter Cards to be distributed to our older adult friends atAilsa Court
For more information on intergenerational practice, we recommend visting Generations Working Together, the nationally recognised centre of excellence supporting the development and integration of intergenerational work across Scotland.
