Intentional Relationships: That is Your Side, This is Mine!by Kris Swiatocho and Pastor Dan Houk
Understanding healthy boundaries is a great place to start in having healthy, intentional relationships (family, friends, work, church, and dating). Boundaries are defined in different ways by different people. Accurate definitions are important for navigating relationships well. Read More
Saturday, March 29th, 2025, Hendersonville, NCWhere's The Moneyby Kris Swiatocho, Director
No matter what size ministry you are over, budgeting/finances is always a challenge.
Whether you are starting a singles ministry or growing an existing one, depending on whether it’s at your church or community, will affect your budgeting needs. Some obstacles: -Proving the ministry is needed at your church and its value to request funds. That the expense will return fruit. -Competing with other valuable ministries for the same funds. -If it’s a ministry outside the church (Facebook/Meetup), ensure you don’t spend all of your personal money without the investment of others. -Dealing with folks who never have any funds to attend your events or outings, pay for resources (and how to meet those needs) Read More We Still Have Room!3 Then Jesus told them this parable: 4 “Suppose one of you has a hundred sheep and loses one of them. Doesn’t he leave the ninety-nine in the open country and go after the lost sheep until he finds it? 5 And when he finds it, he joyfully puts it on his shoulders 6 and goes home. Then he calls his friends and neighbors together and says, ‘Rejoice with me; I have found my lost sheep.’ 7 I tell you that in the same way there will be more rejoicing in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who do not need to repent. Luke 15:3-7

“Jesus was a single adult and so are over 50% of the adults in the U.S. today. This is a population segment that calls for special attention and ministry, but has often gone unnoticed by the church. Kris Swiatocho has dedicated her life to reaching single adults for Christ and building them into multiplying disciples of Christ. She is a great communicator and organizer of singles ministry. I commend her to any church or group who is seeking to reach the many singles in our culture today.” |

Sowing into Gypsy Families in Greeceby Natasa Papada
On the 26th of December, we had a Christmas party for the local gypsy children. In total, 25 kids from 7 different families participated. We bought 25 pairs of shoes and a small toy. That was their Christmas gift. We wrapped everything in festive paper so each child could feel special. Read More
To Those In Need of the Lightby Judah Coe
It was another day, gathering supplies for those in need due to Hurricane Helene. I was at my church’s hub, sorting boxes of supplies, when I came across this note, placed between donated clothes and toiletries, written by a young boy, named Judah Coe. All I could do was stand in awe, which changed to delight, then into tears. What an inspiring note. Read More
UK Singles Retreat: Registration is now open--limited space!One Single Mom's Storyby Jennifer Maggio, Director of the Life of a Single Mom
I want to give a huge shoutout to a ministry that has poured into me and stood by me through every phase of my journey as a single parent. When I first reached out to them, I was broken and filled with shame. The phrase “single mom” made me cringe because I felt like I was contributing to the cycle of broken homes I desperately wanted to break. I still remember almost three years ago, sitting in a park, pouring my heart into an essay for a chance to attend the Life of a Single Mom retreat. Read More
