There seems to be two types of singles… the young unmarried and then the group of unmarried folk who are divorced or widowed people who struggle with loneliness. Online there are a couple of sites that are there to help singles meet each other.
www.Apostolicsinglesnetwork.com is the best site in my opinion. There is another site here
http://www.apostolicsingles.net/ I’ve been a member of both. I’ve met several people and had a few relationships. I’ve met a little bit of everything .. some still friends… good friends… to some plain wacky. I’ve spent very little time there in the last 6-9 months though, not really interested anymore.
I guess the singles sites are a good way to meet people, but I do have a concern. It seems some have great success and get married… divorced… and married again. My sister keeps me informed of those who end up marrying.. divorcing and back on the site to find another mate. That just sickens me… I guess I am different.. I don’t believe in divorce remarrying stuff and it really grieves me to see so much in our faith. I think we have lost the importance of commitment.. those are vows taken before God.
I’ve been to a few singles outings here in Indiana… was a little disappointed in most, but did go to one in January that I was strengthened spiritually and God really spoke to my heart on some things. I was very glad I went… it was actually quite fun too.
In Memphis they have a Conference at the end of this month and I haven’t heard anything but Good about it, but I haven’t been. My two sisters have and really liked it.
My church has a singles group that focuses on outreach to the community and has seen several women come to the Lord from the local women’s shelter. The focus is not on dating/marrying….but fellowship and ministry. I think it is a great ministry although it is made up of mostly women (probably 20) with 3 single men.
the way it always is...
