At First Presbyterian Church, senior adults continue to experience the abundant life of Christ through a variety of programs and services and with each other. As a contributing force in our church, they are encouraged to remain active in all church activities. First Presbyterian provides our senior members with large-print bulletins for worship services, ministry to shut-ins, assistance with docuement and legal plans for the later years, access to conferences on aging, and much more.

In addition to participating in regular church activities, KEYS members (Keeping Everyone Young in Spirit) seeks to foster the spiritual, intellectual and social needs of older members and provide resources to enrich their lives. KEYS programs include opportunities for learning, fellowship, travel and service to others in the church and in the community.

Their weekly Friday program includes a fitness class and thought-provoking speaker presentation, followed by lunch and bridge. Other KEYS activities include tours to local San Antonio places of interest, monthly birthday luncheons at area restaurants, attending plays, chartered bus trips, sponsoring defensive driving classes, delivering lunches for Habitat for Humanity, providing Christmas baskets for needy families, and other volunteer activities.
