In an interview filmed at CTE Forum, Bishop Mike shared why supporting our mission was important to him: “We want to see our churches valuing single people of various kinds that for us is really important: a Church that values everyone and therefore is representative of the world they’re seeking to reach.” Watch the video on YouTube and on Facebook

Testimonies from the CTE Forum
We recently attended the CTE Forum where we had the opportunity to connect with people from a wide range of denominations and churches. We were encouraged both by their dedication to unity and their desire to welcome and value single people.
Attendees shared with us what their churches do to help people get to know each other. Having social opportunities in church is really important for deepening a sense of belonging – especially among single members.
