Building Better Grandparents
Leawood Program
Resurrection’s Building Better Grandparents seeks to provide opportunities to connect with grandchildren and other grandparents in a Christian community. If you’re a grandparent, you belong here.
BBG will sponsor social activities for grandparents and their grandchildren to enjoy shared experiences together. Mission and outreach events will teach the value of caring for others. Grandparents with grandkids of all ages will grow through educational opportunities with topics especially tailored to the needs and questions of grandparents.
