Hey Guys 20F here. I've never really dated, or even had a boyfriend. I only ever went on one date ever in my whole entire life and that date went horrible. We met online on a Christian dating app, but when we met in person the guy seemed so genuinely uninterested. I was so supposed to go on another date with a different guy I met on that Christian dating app, but he ended up canceling on me a day before the date. This all happened 2 years ago, so I don't really have recent experience ya know.

I want to find genuine Christian guys, but I feel like its so hard to do. I see people who are getting asked out left and right. How can I get asked out? How can I be able to lead to dates? What advice do you have? I feel like no guys ever look my way bc i never get asked out. Am I doing something wrong? Any advice would help thanksss

Also btw i am going into my third of year of college this august so im hoping to meet new people this august

Hey Everyone!

I was thinking of starting a Catholic Young Adult Group for College students. Any College student from any Henderson Parish could join. We could meet just like any other young adult group, and do fun outings like coffee, movies, and bowling. I was thinking we could have movie nights, prayer walks in a park, and even bible studies.

This would be a great way to meet other likeminded Catholic College students in Henderson, other than just from your parish. This is a great way to network outside your social circle and meet new people!

Our first meeting could be at The America First Center on Water St, and we could eat the Mackenzie River there. I figured we could meet somewhere central like downtown Henderson and the first meeting would be good to meet everyone and go over what we would like to do. I was thinking a weekday evening like Wednesday at like 6pm. Let me know if that works for you! And we can finalize it!

Let me know if you or someone you know is interested! Please dm me or comment below!

Hey Guys!
I was thinking of starting an Events and Holiday Club. A club that would throw little themed parties to whatever holiday it is. We could have movie nights, hangouts, or even just decorate the school for the themed holiday. I think this would be a fun way to bring school spirit.

Let me know if you are interested in joining! Please comment below or dm me!

Hey does anyone know when the next fair in Henderson will be? And where it will be? I'm looking for carnival type. Thanks so much!!!

Okay so I'm a 20(F) I was born and raised in the Catholic faith. I got baptized as a baby, received my first Holy Communion and got my Confirmed at 16. I've always felt drawn to my faith. Always wanted to know more. My parents signed me up for Catechism (Sunday school) and I was the kid that constantly asked questions. My grandmother lived with us and she taught me how to pray the rosary and we would pray the rosary together.

Well fast forward to my life now. My senior year in High school I met these two friends and they were cool people. We hung out all day everyday. I didn't realize it at the time, but looking back at it they were not good friends for me. They put me down and made fun of me, they always said daggers towards me and just were not good people. One of the people, we went to community college together and took some classes together.

These people got me into drinking, they got me to try alcohol. I know I made the decision to drink it, but they introduced me to it. We started drinking whenever we could. Every chance we could we drank. Well one night, we were drinking, it was actually one of my friends graduation night and we all took shots. My friends mom found the bottles in the bedroom. The mom came over to my house to confront me, I played dumb and denied like any scared teenager would. Long story short, they got mad at me and betrayed big time, they sent videos of me drinking to my mom. It was a loss of trust, friendship and big time betrayal. I was hurt, never saw this coming.

Well one random Saturday afternoon I went to confession and I confessed about this. I was so confused. I went to church that next sunday. Now remember I haven't gone to church in months. When the deacon gives the homily the first thing he said was "you have friends and you have friends" It was so crazy to me, because I go to church right after this friendship mess happens. I knew it was God talking to me.

Then, I join Intervarsity for college and I joined the prayer call one night and the verse they were praying over was "Matthew 7:7" The same verse that we were praying over at Mass when the deacon gave that homily. I knew this was God getting my attention telling me this is where I need to be. These are the people I need to be around.

Right before my friends betrayed big time like that, I lost my sister and her bones were found in a lake. It was heartbreaking. I didn't know what my purpose was. Then these crappy people make my life even more miserable. Well right after that is when I went to church and found God.

And God has always been working in me, I just didn't see it til it was obvious. He was really giving me an eye opener. And now I'm happier than ever. I have a new job, and it's crazy, because like if I didn't give up my old lifestyle I wouldn't have this Job. Everything ties back to God. I needed to give up those friends to have this wonderful life I have now. I'm happier than ever and I met a ton of Christian friends from Intervarsity. It was painful losing those friends, but I wouldn't want to sit with them my whole life being miserable. I'm so blessed I got to experience that pain so it was able to lead me to here

I just wanted to share this story, because I think it's inspiring, let me know what u think!

Im 20F im starting my third year of college soon. I've never had a boyfriend before. I had my first kiss much later in life than the typical first kiss. I was 19 when I had my first kiss. So you get it I'm not that experienced with guys. No guy ever has asked me out before. I've seen it happen to my friends when I'm out and about with them and they get asked out but guys dont even look my way.

I wonder if I will find a boyfriend. I recently joined Intervarsity for my college. Its a college christian fellowship group for students. I joined mid school year so everyone already has their own friends. I know people but just on the acquaintance level. There are a ton of cute guys there! I'm too nervous to say anything to the guys though. I think they are way out of my league and no one would ever want to date me

So it leads me wondering, will I ever find pure catholic love? Will I ever find Christ centered relationships? Will Christian guys ever ask me out? This whole hook up culture stuff is disgusting and I just want a Christ centered relationship. Will I ever find that?
