TURNER — The Rev. Al Boyce, minister of the First Universalist Church of Turner Center, is offering a six-week course for retirees.

The title is “Hindsight, Humor and Hope: Who, Me, an Elder?”

For some people, retirement from the workforce means that their adult identity and day-to-day life appear to vanish as familiar habits and connections are no longer there. For some, a lessening of family or work commitments opens time and energy for trying new roles and experiences.

In six, two-hour workshops, this program invites participants to develop deeper understanding and appreciation of their elder stage of life and the path they traveled to reach it.

The course will take place for six consecutive Tuesdays at 11 a.m. beginning Sept. 11. There will be discussion and a brown bag lunch. People may as many sessions as they would like.

The workshop is open to all and attendees are invited to bring a friend.

To sign up contact Boyce by phone or text 207-458-6387, or email revalb91@gmail.com.
