Many of us in the 40's, 50's & Above age group are "Empty Nesters" or have
teenage children who don't really want to socialize with Mom or Dad. As a single
member of The Body of Christ myself, at the end of the week I have often felt
that my social choices were limited to 1) Stay home alone, or 2) Go to a
Nightclub. Neither choice is good. We were designed to be social creatures. "It
is not good for the Man (or Woman) to be alone". Yet, sometimes it can be very
difficult to connect with other people outside of Church Services in a large
church such as Colorado Community Church. Many churches do not even see single's
ministry as a mission or priority.
It also seems that singles in their forties and fifties are much less active and
social than we were in our twenties and thirties. We are much more
"disconnected" today.
It shouldn't be that way among those of us in The Body of Christ. It doesn't
have to be that way. I, for one, am not quite ready for the Retirement Home.
Life's too short to sit around and do nothing! Life starts at FIFTY! God
didn't call Moses until he was fifty! Abraham and Sarah had Isaac
when Abrahan was 100.
Fun and Fabulous Forties Plus at Colorado Community Church presents
opportunities for Christians to make Christian Friends of both sexes while
enjoying many different social and outdoor "adventures". We want to provide
singles in their 40's, 50's and above at Colorado Community Church with
fellowship, support, prayer and social activities in a safe and non-threatening
environment. Members are encouraged to plan and organize events that they are
interested in, with the help of the leadership. Tell us your idea for our next
social or outdoor adventure!
Don't sit at home alone, anymore!
