Being single can be lonely, especially for those newly divorced or widowed people looking for fellowship, support and spiritual growth in churches comprised mostly of families. About four years ago, Marty Line set out to change this for herself and all other singles in the Carlisle area. Ms. Line had been attending Crossfire Interchurch Singles Ministry in Camp Hill but felt she shouldn't have to travel the 20 miles to events and meetings. She consulted with her then pastor at the First Presbyterian Church, James Skimins, about forming a Christian singles group. And New Genesis Singles Ministry was born.
New Genesis is for anyone single, whether they are divorced, separated, widowed or never married.
She says the average age of those who attend events range from the late 30s to 60, but any age is welcome. Back to CumberLink. Back to the local news page.
