With digital connections taking over society, it’s appropriate that some people are using them to fill the voids that technology helped to create. That applies to the faith community as well.

Where Christian singles used to count on finding friendship — and more — in a singles ministry at church, now they’re turning to social-networking sites such as Meetup.com. One local Meetup group, 2Gather, prides itself on offering fun activities that can lead to lasting friendships.

“I haven’t really found too much in the romantic possibility, but friendships I certainly have,” says Michael Koehler, who joined the group late last year. “I’ve met a lot of really nice people. They’re welcoming, easy to talk to and funny, so it’s really been a good experience for me.”

Koehler, 29, also appreciates the group’s “nice, clean fun.”

“I don’t smoke, I don’t drink and I don’t necessarily like parties or whatever, so the idea of going to a Meetup group where I knew most likely the other people there wouldn’t be drinking heavily or anything like that drew me,” he says.

The 2Gather group is a complement to church activities, says Bonnie May.

“It allows me to associate with other people of like faith who are not people I go to church with,” says May, who has been active with the group for about two years. “I hear about things that are going on at other churches that I might want to go to that I would otherwise never hear about.”

May says the group has a “good cross-section” of different denominations and ages.

Meetup allows people to find groups in their area that focus on things in which they’re interested. There are groups dedicated to a variety of activities, philosophies and faiths. Often, people will join more than one Meetup group.

“I was recommended to it by another person I work with,” says May, 27. “She was single and trying to get involved. She got involved in a hiking group. I went on the site and found the Christian singles group.”

May also joined the Active 20 30 Somethings group.

“They both do some of the same types of activities, like go to the movies or go whitewater rafting,” she says.

In the 1970s and ’80s, the label “single” had an alluring ring corresponding to a huge demographic, and churches went out of their way to pull people into their singles programs, but it’s different today.

“We do have classes listed as singles classes, if that is what people consider themselves to be,” says David Harkins, missions pastor at Sevier Heights Baptist Church. “But they’re part of the overall Sunday School department.”

“We don’t really have a singles-focused ministry,” says Martha Atkins, who is in charge of small groups at Powell Church.

Church Street United Methodist is one of the few churches to create a strong singles ministry that has lasted.

“I do a monthly newsletter for this group, and they’ve got all kinds of stuff going on,” says Caroline Lamar, the church’s communications director. The singles do a lunch bunch, bike rides, yoga, dances, retreats and service projects. Interestingly, the Internet also plays a role in the group’s success.

“We do the newsletter through (the website) Constant Contact,” says Lamar. “I think there are about 450 emails on that email list.”

One of the popular singles activities at Church Street is done in conjunction with 2Gather. 2Gather organizer Jowee Secore says they heard that the church had a regular games night and asked if they could join forces. Now, more than two dozen singles meet the third Friday of each month for a potluck dinner and board games.

Secore, 39, started out as a regular member of the group, but his involvement made him the natural choice for leader when the original organizer left after getting engaged. Secore started looking for Meetup groups after six months of sitting around after a divorce.

“When I decided to come out of my shell, I wasn’t searching for a singles group,” says Secore, who changed the name from Knoxville Christian Singles to 2Gather. “I was searching for a Christian group that did stuff, an activity group.”

He tries to plan events that give people time to interact, but he discourages participants from coming in with the goal of finding a life mate.

“It’s like, ‘Chill out; become friends first. Let’s hang out, have some fun,’” he says.

That philosophy appeals to May.

“I have met somebody there before that I have gone out with a few times,” she says. “I don’t go into it with that intention because I think that puts a lot of pressure on myself. To me, it’s a very safe place for me to go and not feel like I’m always on guard.”

Koehler joined 2Gather after realizing that he was spending too much time watching TV and playing video games because all of his friends were getting married and had little time to hang out.

“It’s good to force yourself to go out there and, even if you’re uncomfortable, start trying to do different things,” he says.
