As single adults avail themselves to our programs and services they will be able to experience sexual and emotional purity, soul and financial prosperity, discovery of purpose, implementation of purpose, fulfillment from purpose and those that are called to marriage will receive biblical insight into how to date, have successful relationships and prepare for biblically based satan proof marriages.
Singles Pleasing the Lord is convinced that the impact of developing healthy single adults is far-reaching for our world. Healthy single adults are significant contributors in making our world a better place to live in whether they are found in ministry, business, politics, education, health, social service, arts or entertainment.
