“With Barb and I both experiencing the loss of our spouse through death, we were thrown into being single again. Oh the hurt, the pain and the loneliness! If you find yourself being single, no matter how it happened, please join us. We are here to be an encouragement, for fun and for fellowship among Christians, no matter your denominational background! Let us hear from you!”
– Joe MacDonald
