Church Street is not just a church of couples. Single adults are welcome, whether you’ve never been married, or are separated, divorced, or widowed. We hope you can find a place to get connected to ministry at Church Street.
The Singles Ministry seeks to assist single adults of all ages in discovering their spiritual gifts and using these gifts to enhance their lives with Christian fellowship, tradition, attitudes and values. This is done through Sunday school classes, Bible and book studies, numerous service projects and an array of social/recreational activities.
