A Question About Singles Ministry..

[KarenJo]

Here are some questions regarding Singles Ministry.

1. Is there a law that says a married couple needs to be the leader?

2. Is there a good break down of ages in the Singles Ministry?
(I believe that we need more age appropriate ministry Especially within the UPC Such as)

My Idea!

Jr. High Youth, Ages 12 – 15
Sr. High Youth, Ages 15 – 19
College and Career, Ages 20 – 29
Singles, Ages 30 – 49
Top of the Line, Ages 50 – and up

I had this discussion with Todd Gaddy the former Youth President of the UPCI and we talked about the fact that the Singles of the UPC are under the umbrella of the SS Dept. and the Young Married are under the Youth Department. We both decided that it made no sense. I don’t have a problem with the elders but our lives at different places and I think that having more distinction in the age groups would really be more beneficial. I don’t attend many Singles Conferences because the majority of the focus is for the College and Career age and too many who may be elderly. It’s just not a good mix. THIS IS NOT A SLAM ON ANYONE all of my closest friends are married and of different ages..
