Mature Singles

Mature Singles offers Christian Fellowship in a group where singles of all backgrounds are accepted and affirmed. It provides an opportunity for participants to grow spiritually and personally through worship, education, service, outreach, and recreational activities, and to socialize in a positive setting. Sunday morning gatherings include a lecture and discussion. Friday dinners are weekly and the schedule is available through the group contact. The age of most participants is 55 and up. For more information contact Marcy Toon, at mtoon@umich.edu.

June 23 - Singles will meet in the Curtis Room where Marcy Toon will review the book, Tinkers, by Paul Harding. "Tinkers is about the legacy of consciousness and the porousness of identity from one generation to the next. At once heartbreaking and life affirming, it is an elegiac meditation on love, loss, and the fierce beauty of nature."
June 30 - Singles will watch the film, Pride of Lions, written and directed by John Woehrle and Louise Woehrle. "Pride of Lions presents Sierra Leone in a new light -- the story of what it means for a country and its people brutalized by an 11-year civil war to move beyond their scars."
