Our Vision:
Recognizing that all Christians are called to envision God's
future together, we affirm that Singles Ministries is a unique call to offer
understanding, compassion, and support to one another in promoting wholeness. We
accept and encourage persons to labor together with God for the accomplishment
of God's work entrusted to all. We proclaim kinship with Jesus Christ as we
promote understanding and support for each other.
Our Mission:
Singles Ministries will provide a support network for new
visions, strategies, goals, and personal worth, focused on God, for the adult
person who has never married or who is divorced or widowed.
As the body of Christ, we seek to enrich the lives of all
persons. We will respond through mutual sharing, unconditional love, and
development of a greater appreciation of other cultures and diversities of
persons.
Celebration:
We celebrate and affirm our call to promote the spirit of
wholeness for all. We seek to increase our understanding of the Gospel of Jesus
Christ as we recognize each individual's uniqueness. We encourage each person to
be faithful in their relationship with God and with other persons.
