Singles Ministries
One of the things that has occupied much of my time since last year, is helping to found and grow a Singles Ministry in my church, The Episcopal Church of the Good Shepherd in Webster NY.
I would like to find out if you have any knowledge or experience with Singles Ministries that you could share with us. I have always relied on my faith to get me over the many rough spots in singlehood and single parenthood but I know that few single people attend church.
That has been a mystery to me, as the weekly services were sometimes the one peaceful time I had and I wondered why more singles didn't take advantage of that.
On the other hand, I know that most churches focus on two parent families and often do things that do not seem to include single people, especially if they are not married or do not have children.
Our church is trying to change that, and it would be very helpful to hear what other churches are doing.   View our SAM's Lambs (Single Adult Ministry) site and give me your feedback or send an email.

Singles Travel Club
We're opening up our Travel Club, again. Fears about traveling seem to have quieted since the 9/11 tragic event so we're going to try again to get a club going.
We've found some good connections to help get affordable trips and vacations but we need to know if there is genuine interest in getting together from the four corners of the country, or continent, and making new friends from everywhere and anywhere.  At this point in time, we will be looking at a trip at least 3 months from now so that means a Fall or winter trip.  Make a  request for more info with Travel Club in the Subject.

 On Being Best Friends

One of my best friends sent this to me and I am dutifully sending it on to you.
There's a story of two friends who were walking through the desert.  During some point of the journey they had an argument, and one friend slapped the other one in the face.
The one who got slapped was hurt, but without saying anything, wrote in the sand:

TODAY MY BEST FRIEND SLAPPED ME IN THE FACE.

They kept on walking until they found an oasis, where they decided to take a bath. The one who had been slapped got stuck in the mire and started drowning, but the friend saved him. 
After he recovered from the near drowning, he wrote on a stone: 

TODAY MY BEST FRIEND SAVED MY LIFE. 

The friend who had slapped and saved his best friend asked him, "After I hurt you, you wrote in the sand and now, you write on a stone, why?" The other friend replied "When someone hurts us we should write it down in sand where winds of forgiveness can erase it away. But, when! someone does something good for us, we must engrave it in stone where no wind can ever erase it."

LEARN TO WRITE YOUR HURTS IN THE SAND AND TO CARVE YOUR BENEFITS IN STONE.

They say it takes a minute to find a special person, an hour to appreciate them, a day to love them, but then an entire life to forget them.
Send this to the people you'll never forget
It's a short message to let them know that you'll never forget them. If you don't send it to anyone, it means you're in a hurry and that you've forgotten your friends. Take the time to live!

Do not value the THINGS you have in your life. But value WHO you have in your life!

TODAY'S JOKE (from FunnyMailer)
******************************

Warning: Beer Contains Female Hormones

Yesterday, scientists for Health Canada suggested that men should take a look at their beer consumption, considering the results of a recent analysis that revealed the presence of female hormones in beer.

The theory is that drinking beer makes men turn into women.

To test the finding, 100 men were fed 6 pints of beer each. It was then observed that 100% of the men gained weight, talked excessively without making sense, became overly emotional, couldn't drive, failed to think rationally, argued over nothing, and refused to apologize when wrong.

No further testing is planned.
