For many, the transition through divorce, being widowed, or the experience of being single is the loneliest and most frightening time of their lives, often triggering profound depression, financial uncertainty, and social isolation. Finding the necessary support can feel like a daunting task, especially when professional help is financially prohibitive. While people naturally turn to their church community, smaller congregations face a significant challenge: they simply don't have the resources or a large enough singles group to sustain a ministry. This leaves a critical gap in care. One In Him exists to close that gap. We facilitate a practical, effective solution: pooling resources and single members from a collective of smaller churches in a region to ensure comprehensive and accessible support for everyone.
Our mission is centered entirely on supporting single Christians throughout every stage of their journey. Our services are tailored to meet the needs of all singles: from those going through a breakup, the recently divorced or widowed, to those focused on singlehood, and those who are ready to explore new relationships. Furthermore, we recognize that forming a new, God-centered relationship requires unique support. We are committed to walking with new couples as they navigate the complex and exciting transition from being single to becoming a committed partnership as they work toward marriage.
One In Him functions as a nonprofit1 corporation by filling a critical gap in care for single Christians. We achieve this by providing a practical, accessible, and comprehensive support system that smaller congregations, due to limited resources and membership, can't sustain on their own. We serve the community by pooling the resources and single members from multiple smaller churches within a region, creating a vibrant, centralized, and effective ministry tailored to all stages of a single person's journey—from those needing immediate grief or transition support to those exploring a God-centered relationship and the subsequent path toward marriage. This collaboration ensures that essential emotional, financial, and social support is equitably available to everyone regardless of their specific church's size, thereby strengthening the regional Christian community as a whole.
Each church that actively partners with and sponsors Corporation events appoint one representative and participate in the Advisory Board.
The Advisory Board serves as the primary strategic liaison to the sponsoring churches. Its essential function is to ensure the Corporation's programs and governance remain in fundamental alignment with the churches' core theological values and mission. Furthermore, the Board is responsible for proactively soliciting and effectively channeling the needs and perspectives of their members to the Corporation’s leadership, thereby guaranteeing all services are relevant and highly effective.
Social events are the heart of our mission because they are the most effective way to combat the loneliness, depression, and isolation that often accompany singleness. In our experience, many singles struggle to find their place in traditional church settings, which are often oriented around couples and families. This can lead to them feeling out of place or even judged, especially following a divorce. Our goal is simple: to bring together Christian singles from various churches to create a safe, judgment-free space where they can socialize, build relationships, and share their unique journeys. We regularly host monthly socials at local churches and celebrate major occasions with joyful holiday events. The best part? We empower our members to drive the fun—hosting other exciting events like game nights, hiking trips, or book clubs, ensuring a vibrant and diverse calendar of activities for everyone.
Fellowship with other singles was the start of our mission, but we also believe a supportive community and learning are at the base of healing. Our Education and Support programs are dedicated to equipping Christian singles with the tools to navigate life's most challenging transitions. We offer compassionate, faith-centered guidance designed to help members heal from the deep pain of a breakup, the complexity of divorce, or the profound grief of widowhood and the challenges of addiction and anger. Through workshops, small groups, and mentorship, we provide sound biblical teaching and practical strategies on emotional health, forgiveness, and establishing new routines. The core of this pillar is teaching you how to anchor your happiness not in a relationship status, but in a vibrant, fulfilling relationship with Christ, enabling you to step into a life of genuine joy and contentment regardless of your circumstances.
Our Christian faith is a call to radical love, beautifully summarized in the Great Commandment to love God and love our neighbor. It is through acts of compassion, generosity, and service that we most authentically demonstrate the transformative power of Christ's love to the world. A ministry that is truly alive will always be actively engaged in its community. When we volunteer, we are not simply doing good works; we are living out the Gospel, providing practical support, hope, and affirmation of Christ’s message. For this reason, our ministry continuously partners with local organizations to provide hands-on volunteer opportunities. We believe that every member is gifted for service. We not only recommend participation; we commit to equipping and encouraging every person to step out in faith and make a measurable difference in the lives of those around us.
