Most of the members of this fellowship are over 60 years old and communicate in Cantonese. It was established on June 18th, 1998, a few months prior to the establishment of the South Shore Chinese Alliance Church. At that time, a group of brother and sisters saw that there were many elderly Chinese people living in the South Shore. They felt there would be many opportunities to spread the gospel and allow the elderly to go out and walk around for physical and mental health.
Meeting time: every Friday morning from 10 am to noon 12pm
