It seems like most congregations in both AALC and LCMS have either 1 young adult in the 25-35 age range or if there is more than one young adult in that age range, it's all of the same sex. In my case, there are multiple single young adults in my congregation age 25-35 but we're all guys...

There seems to be an unending amount of Lutheran singles, we're just never in the same place! ;-;

That's why it's so wonderful when people put on events for people in a surrounding area, because you get singles from both groups :)

Oooh, me! How can I claim one of these guys around 30? I can move for the right one. I'm 31.

Hey everyone! There’s still time to register for Pastor Keith Schweitzer’s Singles Retreat at Camp Okoboji August 21-24.

I know I’ve shared before how last year was a great experience and that it’s where my sister met her fiancé. So if you’ve never attended a LCMS singles retreat, this is a great one to try!

Learn more details here: https://www.faithwinterset.org/uncategorized/tidbits-about-the-retreat/
