Central California Conference Churches around Central host singles’ events such as game night.
Here is what singles’ ministry is really about: social interaction and community. Many of the activities are planned around members’ interests and hobbies. This gives people from multiple generations the opportunity to learn new skills, socialize, and grow as individuals. It also provides a place for open and safe discussions about sensitive or controversial topics without judgment or condemnation. Calvin Wold, a frequent participant in Central’s ASAM activities, found out about the program last year at Soquel Camp Meeting, where Sulen set up a tent for daily lunches and activities. He says that he “enjoys the wide variety of people that come to each event” and believes the program provides positive connections. What you can do to help is easy: Spread the word, volunteer your time, become the change that helps a community reach its full potential. Check out ASAM’s social media page
on Facebook @CCCASAM or contact Sulen at singles@cccsda.org for upcoming events or other ways that you can contribute. As the world continues to change
the way we interact socially, it’s important that we focus on the strength of our community as a whole and to make a conscious effort to include everyone in our hearts.
A typical brown-bag seminar at Soquel Camp Meeting includes discussions about relevant topics.
