Where to Find Christian Singles
Meeting singles isn't easy within any group of people,
and is made more difficult when approached from a specific set
of standards, such as those of Christians. As a result, the
field narrows when it comes time to find appropriate places to
meet a potential partner. Since the Christian lifestyle is
specific in its guidelines for dating, as dictated by the Church
(chastity is not a choice; it's a requirement), the ability to
find a compatible mate often means that you must look in places
that are specific to others of the faith.
In addition to meeting someone at Church, Christian singles also
have the opportunity to meet others of their faith at retreats,
in an environment where they may be performing charitable works,
in faith-related groups or clubs, on pilgrimages, or through
other Christian friends or acquaintances. There are certainly
Christian online dating services, as well, although you don't
have the benefit of meeting the person up-front within a safe
environment. The church arena, itself, doesn't include simply
meeting someone at the end of Mass. There are socials, rosary
groups, Scripture classes, and sometimes groups trips or
activities ("field trips," if you will) that are church-led.
While the secular world is busy meeting others in bars, lounges
and dance establishments, Christians are called to surround
themselves with a healthier, more spiritual environment through
which they meet and interact with others. There are plenty of
options out there - it's just a matter of seeking out the
opportunities at hand within your own Christian community and
making the most of them.
