Melbourne Christian Singles Survey
✨ Ever thought… “Will I ever find someone for me?” ✨I get it. Online dating can feel like a full-time job (with very little reward 🫠), church often doesn’t have many options, and meeting someone “naturally” in real life feels harder than it should be. If you’ve felt that mix of hope and frustration, you’re definitely not alone.The good news? There are plenty of Christian singles in Melbourne (30–50) who want the same thing you do - real connection, lasting love, and maybe even marriage and family. But instead of waiting around for something to happen, we can build spaces and events that make meeting each other easier (and a lot more fun 🎉).This survey is your chance to share your experiences and ideas so we can create events designed for us, by us. Together, we can change the story of dating and make it way less awkward. 💕Thanks for being part of this. I can’t wait to see what we can build together.x Kate
