Changing of our Population


The SAM's of this congregations are very important. Statistics help put this in perspective. According to recent statistical studies, 34% of all Americans are 50 years of age or older. Every 7 seconds another person turns 50! People aged 65 plus number over 35 million, representing one out of every 8 Americans. The number of older Americans (65+) has increased to 12.4% since 1990 (3.3 million). This number is expected to grow to 20% by 2030. In the U.S., 2 million people celebrated their 65th birthday last year … almost 5,500 per day. As of July 1983, there are more adults age 65 or older than teenagers in the United States. This growing number of senior adults is living longer than ever before. More than two hundred Americans reach age 100 each week.

May our God bless our efforts and may we bring glory to God through this work until Christ comes again.
