Young At Heart

The Young at Heart is a group for folks ages 50 and up, both women and men at Orange UMC. Together we aim to explore, fellowship, learn, and have fun. It is an opportunity to invite your friend or neighbor who is not at OUMC to join us and meet some new friends. Our group is self-sustaining, not requesting funding from the church. Contact Alice Finnell or the church office for more information.

Young at Heart February 2025 Outing

On a bright chilly February morning, 19 seniors and guests gathered at the Durham Police Department to learn about forensics. Heather Maddry, a forensics supervisor and specialist, led our presentation with slides showing the details of this area in police work. A key to this job is being detail-oriented, a problem solver, and thinking outside the box. We toured the lab to see some of the tools such as chemicals, alternate light sources, and photography used to process evidence collected by the forensics team. Two hours later, we adjourned to Mezcalito, a nearby restaurant. It was great to get together and catch up with each other over our delicious lunch!
