According to the 2010 Census there are 99.6 million unmarried
people, 18 and older in the U.S.; that's almost 44% of all
Americans. There are 55.1 million Households in the U.S. that are
maintained by unmarried men and women; that's 45% of all households
nationwide. 31.4 million live alone, that's 27% of all households,
up from 17% in 1970. Do these numbers surprise you? They shocked us
the first time we saw them.
Every year America is getting closer and closer to half of its
population being single, and that's staggering. As a single adult
do you feel alone? Well guess what, you're not, you have 99.5999999
million friends that are in the same boat as you; that's a pretty
big boat, but guess what? God cares for each and every one of you.
He wants' your burdens (Ps. 68:19), He wants to heal your hurts
(Isaiah 57:18), and restore peace to your soul (Ps. 23). How does
He do this? Through the greatest single adult who ever lived -
Jesus Christ. He changed lives when He walked the earth 2000 years
ago and He is still changing lives today. Jesus said in Matthew
11:28-30, "Come to me all you who are weary and burdened and I will
give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am
gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.
For my yoke is easy and my burden is light." What a great promise,
not of an easy life, but that Christ will always be there to guide
you on your journey. You are not alone. So why not start your
journey here with us at the Harvest? Join us as we study God's
word, and strive to become Wholly, Devoted, Passionate Followers of
Jesus Christ (WDPF).
The mission of the Single Adult Ministry at the Harvest is for
singles to have a place to connect in the church and grow in their
relationship with Jesus Christ. The class studies will deal with
life issues and discussions will be based on a Biblical single
adult perspective.
