About Kris and the Team
About Kris Swiatocho
Kris Swiatocho is a dynamic, kingdom-minded leader whose passion is to see every heart touched by Jesus and every believer equipped to walk boldly in their calling. As the Director of Kris Swiatocho Ministries and The Singles Network Ministries, Kris has devoted over 30 years to serving the Church, strengthening leaders, and transforming lives through biblical teaching, mentoring, speaking, and hands-on ministry.
Driven by a deep love for God and people, Kris carries a contagious energy that ignites hope, stirs faith, and inspires action wherever she goes. Her ministry is rooted in Scripture, anchored in prayer, and propelled by the conviction that every person — single, married, hurting, or hopeful — matters to God and to the mission of the Church.
Kris’s influence spans across the United States and around the world. Through conferences, retreats, mission trips, webinars, podcasts, Bible studies, leadership training, and online resources, she has equipped thousands to grow in their relationship with Christ and to reach others with the life-changing message of the Gospel.
As a visionary author and communicator, Kris writes with clarity and heart. Her books, studies, and resources — including Intentional Relationships for Singles, Jesus, Single Like Me, and practical leadership curricula — empower individuals and ministries to build healthier relationships with God and with others.
Kris also leads with compassion in times of crisis. Through her ministries, she mobilizes relief efforts, including hurricane response, to provide tangible help and spiritual encouragement to communities recovering from disasters. She believes ministry is most powerful when love is seen, help is given, and Jesus is made known in both word and deed.
Known for her warmth, humor, authenticity, and unwavering faith, Kris doesn’t just teach — she connects. Whether speaking to a crowd, leading a small group, equipping leaders, or praying one-on-one, her heart’s desire is that every life she touches would experience hope restored, purpose awakened, and God’s love lived out boldly in everyday life.

Kris Swiatocho is probably the best speaker, the most encouraging and insightful communicator to singles that I have ever heard, hands down! Kris is single and really understands singleness. She has a caring heart and insightfulness because of this. I have personally known Kris for over 10 years now. She is a wonderfully talented, funny & truly gifted communicator. Our singles love it when Kris comes to our church and loves even more when attending events that she has put together and will be leading. I have had the opportunity to work with Kris on leadership for the National Singles Labor Day Retreat in North Carolina for the past 10 years. I recommend Kris Swiatocho to you & your church as a speaker, equipper, trainer or just to encourage your singles or church. She always presents the message of the gospel in an energetic way to up-lift others and Jesus.
