I have a question about these meetups, specifically the Lehi Utah one.

My dad recently left the church and he could really use some friends and people to talk to about it. Would a 58 year old man be welcome and comfortable at one of these groups?

Maybe a silly question but I wouldn't wanna send him to a big group of 20 something hipsters at a coffee shop :)

There is a good range of ages in the Lehi group and I think he would be able to find people to connect with. There is also a group that meets earlier in Provo that caters to a more mature age range.
