About PrimeTimers

As part of Bon Air Baptist Church's mission, PrimeTimers was created by former Pastor, Norman Burnes, who envisioned people over the age of 50 coming together every month for Christian fellowship and to build new friendships. PrimeTimers ministers to the spiritual and emootional needs of its members and improves their quality of life by providing a time and space for making new connections, having fun, and expressing love to others as our Lord intended.
