AN OPEN
LETTER TO ALL SINGLES
What do you
receive and what do you give back to Single Place?
Each of us
receives more than just a few hours of social interaction when we attend
Thursday evening meetings or any of the various functions Single Place
has to offer. We receive:
-
COMFORT in knowing we are not alone in our alone-ness.
-
SUPPORT by sharing our thoughts, fears and feelings with other
singles who “are there or have been there”.
-
NEW
FRIENDSHIPS Where better to meet other singles than in a
Christian atmosphere.
-
EDUCATIONAL OPPORTUNITIES to learn how to improve your outlook
on your life and correct some personality faults. (WE ALL HAVE THEM).
Anyway - you
get the picture. Now, what do you give back for all these benefits you
have received at Single Place? One way is your continued support by
attending Thursday evening meetings and our weekend parties, sports
events, cards & games nights, dinners, concerts, and theaters. Thank you
for that.
Another way to
give back would be to give the gift of time - a little or a lot - to
help make these events happen. A little involvement by everyone results
in a more effective organization, which ultimately results in YOU
receiving more (1) comfort, (2) support (3) friendships (4) personal
improvement. Who doesn't want that?
Single Place
is at a somewhat critical time regarding social planning especially. To
prevent "burn-out" for a few people who seem to do the most, we need
your help. Never done anything like this before - no problem. The
experienced will be glad to help and guide you along every step of the
way. Many times sit is just a phone call to buy tickets or make dinner
reservations, or be a car pool driver (you will be reimbursed for gas).
Or how about hosting a house party or cards night? You can even set your
limit on the number of people you have space for in your apartment,
condo or house. (There again, you will be reimbursed for any expenses
you incur).
Just get
involved and see how much better you can feel about not only yourself
but life in general. It's a great feeling to help others. This is
YOUR organization and can only be as effective as those who make it
that way by giving something back in return for the many things they
have received. We need YOUR support to survive.
