The "Boomer" generation will begin to turn age 65 in 2011. This huge cohort represents both strength and a challenge to secular and religious institutions alike. A tip of the "Boomer" iceberg will be affluent. Many will be self-supporting. But a large number will be in need. A majority of the boomers are entering their prime earning years on a schedule that is actually behind that of their parents. Churches and denominations have 30 years to prepare to meet the needs of the Boomers as they enter old age.
