Primetimers

If you are retired (or you could be, but you are still working on a flexible schedule) and if you like good food, fellowship, fun and helping others, then Primetimers may be just the group for you!  Members of this group are involved throughout the church and are happy to introduce new members of St. Francis to both the Primetimers' activities and other opportunities in the church. Primetimers is a great place to make new friends and participate in social activities or mission projects.

primetimers_07_editedThis group meets for breakfast on the first Tuesday of each month at 10:00 AM at Barry's Cafe at Tryon & Jones Franklin Road (2851 Jones Franklin Road, Raleigh, NC 27606) - no reservation needed, just show up.  Order breakfast or just a cup of tea or coffee and enjoy the company of this very congenial group.  While there, you will also hear about the many activities in which Primetimers are involved, and receive information about the social events that are coming up.

There is usually one activity per month. Typical activities are our annual Christmas Potluck Brunch, the May picnic, museum exhibits, day trips to local points of interest, and musical, sports or stage events. Many of these trips include dining and fellowship at a nearby restaurant. We usually meet at the church and share transportation to the event.

In the area of service, many of our members are involved in mission projects that include working on small repairs of local homes that are referred to us by the Hands for Neighbors group. At times Primetimers may travel to other states or countries in support of mission work. Frequently Primetimers work at the Food Bank of Central & Eastern North Carolina, 3808 Tarheel Drive, Raleigh, NC 27609 and in the many other mission projects of our church.

If you have an interest in expanding your knowledge base, there have been opportunities to attend seminars and other learning opportunities at local universities and community colleges.  Although we offer quite a variety of things to do, we are always open to new ideas, so do come and give us a try.  Even if you do not want to "get involved" come and make new friends, we would love to meet you.
