You're begging to be called into a singles ward bishopric with that comment. ;-) And given some of the things you've talked about on here I think you'd probably enjoy that ward more than a regular one.

You're too old to be in the singles ward now?
I was in a singles ward at BYU that had a lot of 40-something never marrieds. I thought it was kind of weird. I was 21. I think hormones would force me to get married. My engine runs too hot for the oil to never be changed. |

I will be very surprised if we don't see a Stake split soon. Our new building (supposed to be done by 11/1) is stake center sized and the stake boundaries out here are really weird. I could see them taking pieces of Richardson, McKinney, Dallas East, and Tyler stakes and creating one out here.

I have found that if the singles ward bishop is diligent and makes good use of his counselors and student assistants, he can do a pretty good job on staying on top of where the kids are and how they are doing. Not all bishops do that though. And it's true, if a kid wants to not be found, he can more easily do so because singles natures have a much higher degree of turnover. That said, I think the opportunities singles get in a singles ward are invaluable, both socially and ecclesiastically. |

Of course if I taught a class at a singles ward, I would teach you shouldn't marry outside of the church. ![]() |
