Guest:Gwen LeutholdGina MartinRon MessnerShow notes:Review/Update on survey of our Singles.Goal - how to better be one body; how to better serve in the body.Wanted to hear the heart of the singles.Singles are wondering what change the survey will bring.Both the process in making/doing the survey and the data has been valuable.Positives: committed to church (local and national); grateful for being included in church roles; grateful when married families include them in their lives.Singles needs: more support from local congregation; help in dealing with loneliness; balance with life & church; dealing with sexual needs; need to be married.How to help singles? What season of life are they in?Testimony and instruction of ultimately looking to Christ to have needs met, and not relying on marriage to be complete.Personal experience: easier to be single in a small church (singleness is not an identity); larger churches tend to group singles together as an identity.
