Our mission is to encourage and equip grandparents to be intentional about passing on their faith legacy to their grandchildren, primarily through grandparenting ministries within the local church.
In today’s rapidly changing world, grandparents have a unique and powerful opportunity to influence future generations. Grandparents Matter is a specialized ministry designed to inspire, encourage, and empower Christian grandparents to embrace their biblical calling and make a lasting spiritual impact on their families.
Through an ongoing video and discussion-based curriculum, small groups, and seminar studies, grandparents are provided with inspiration, practical ideas, and meaningful tools to help them successfully navigate their role and intentionally build a legacy of faith.
Equipping Grandparents for a Lasting Legacy
Grounded in biblical principles, Grandparents Matter helps grandparents understand the importance of passing down their faith, sharing their personal testimony, praying intentionally for their families, and creating meaningful spiritual connections with their grandchildren. Scripture reminds us of the importance of generations influencing generations, from the commands of Deuteronomy to the promises found throughout Psalms.
The ministry often includes a multi-session seminar experience designed to help grandparents:
- Discover their unique spiritual influence within their family.
- Learn practical ways to share faith with their grandchildren.
- Strengthen relationships across generations.
- Encourage and support other grandparents through community and fellowship.
- Develop intentional prayer habits for their children and grandchildren.
Building Stronger Families Through the Local Church
Grandparents Matter is designed to be hosted through local churches, creating opportunities for grandparents to connect, grow, and encourage one another. Churches throughout the Calvary Chapel network and other Christian communities have used similar programs to strengthen intergenerational relationships and help families leave a lasting legacy of faith.
Whether you are a grandparent looking to deepen your impact, a church seeking to encourage families, or someone passionate about connecting generations, Grandparents Matter provides the resources and community needed to help grandparents fulfill their God-given role.
Your influence matters. Your prayers matter. Your legacy matters.
