40% of UK adults are single …. And it is increasing in every age group ….
-
Are singles under-represented in your church?
-
Does your church embrace singles?
40% of UK adults are single – that’s those who have never married, along with the divorced, separated and widowed and who are not cohabiting – but research shows they don’t always feel welcome in church.
At a time where singleness is increasing in every age group, single people are disproportionately missing from our churches. Research from 3,000 single Christians showed that many feel invisible and isolated in church.
In this Deanery Briefing the Single Friendly Church Network will share how welcoming in single people can grow and enrich your whole church community.
