Joan Farley shares her remarkable journey of saying “yes” to God throughout her life—including in retirement. From her childhood as a missionary kid to global ministry with her husband Charles, Joan’s story is marked by trust, resilience, and purpose.

Now at 70, Joan is a published author of the Christian fiction novel Letters to Cassie, written to encourage and mentor young women. She also shares about caregiving for her 99-year-old mother, missionary trips with her husband, and even discovering and developing new skills later in life.

Highlights:

A life of global service and flexibility in following God’s lead

The power of mentoring and writing fiction with spiritual depth

Facing health challenges in retirement with faith and purpose

Why investing in people is the only legacy that lasts

Retirement isn’t the end—it’s a new season for impact. Whether through mentoring, writing, caregiving, or creative pursuits, God still has more for you.
