Hello Everyone,


I am getting ready to turn 41 and have been divorced for a little while now and just unsure if I want to pursue EH or not. I have tried a couple of the other sites, but find that there are a lot of the same people on all of the other sites. I enjoyed being married and hope to find someone special to spend the rest of my life with, just unsure how to really go about it. I have prayed that God would tell me what step to take next and perhaps that is why I am unsure about this now. I still hope and pray that God is going to send that special person to me and it just be so easy.


I am a Christian and my strongest desire is that God will send the man to me that is a Christian and we are equally yoked. If we are, I know the rest will fall into place.

I hope the same thing for you...


If you want prayer, I noticed a prayer link on air1.com (Christian music site). It's nice to have others praying for God's perfect will for you.

Greetings! Welcome to the Over 40-Single Christians group! Please make yourself at home. It is my prayer that this will become a place of support, encouragement and fellowship.


I tried to send a comment welcoming each of you to the group, but in case I missed anyone.....WELCOME! :-D


Please feel free to take a minute and introduce yourselves so we can get to know each other. I'll start:


I am 42 years old, and I have been a christian for 34 years. I am a nurse, and have been in the profession for 21 years. I am also just finishing a bachelor's degree in psychology and health science. I graduate (FINALLY!) on July 11. Whooo Hooooo!


I am divorced with Biblical grounds, and I have been a single parent for 13 yrs. I have a 15 yr old son and a 13 yr old daughter. My son does not live with me; my daughter does.


I am also a musician- I play the flute and piano, and I sing. I used to play on the worship team at church, but my flute was stolen and I can't afford to replace it. Oh well.


My favorite passage of scripture is Phil. 4:6-8. It is quoted on my profile page.


Well, there's just a little bit about me....how 'bout you?

Hello, I am 40 years old and God found me, I see it as he has never been lost I was. I have always believe in god, but just started really praying and listening to him lately. My husband and I became sober in april of 2007 and started getting more spiritual from attending meetings , After 6 months of sobriety My husband Passed away. At first I was Mad at God But then I realized He had given me the gift of Becoming sober and See my husbandas the man he was meant to be. That was the greatest gift of all. Now I am able to help other people get through what I went through.I started reading Joycey Meyer books, and She has a way with wording the Bible so that it can be easy to understand. I have a better understanding of who I am with the guidence of God in my Life that I wouldn't want to go back to the way I was living before. WEll that's alittle about me I guess I was long winded

I just found this group tonight. I'm not quite 40 yet so I hope it's okay I joined this group. I am a single mom to two wonderful kids. I work as a teacher's aide andas a tutor at a youth center during the school year. I enjoy supporting my kids in their activities, scrapbooking, surfing the internet, music, writing (published a book in 2005!) and traveling.


I have gone to church off and on since I was born, but became a Christian about 4 years ago. I am hoping this group will give me inspiration. At my church, there aren't many people my age anymore. We got a new pastor about 3 years ago so with that change many people my age left the church. Now I feel like the odd one out because if they are my age they are married. Most of the church is older with their adult married children attending now.

Hi All. I'm 41 and happily divorced (8 years now). I have three grown children and one grandbaby. Living alone has its advantages (more quite time, freedom, no arguing) but... well, you all know that story. Basically, I'm bored out of my mind!


Last year, I hooked up with a guy from another site - turned out all he wanted was a roommate with benefits. I know what your thinking... but it was more than that. He was so in debt that he couldn't afford to take me out on a dinner date. He needed someone to help pay the bills! How lame is that?


I'm looking forward to making new friends here on eH. Lots of interesting groups and discussion here.

Good day to everyone.
My name is Kathy. I simply adore the Lord. I am a former pastor's wife unfortunately due to his cheating several times. I have been hurt and abandoned by his denomination and our relationship, but I am walking through it one day at a time.

I will not leave my faith. I will not react. I will walk all things out for good.

I am here to get support. I need it as do we all. There aren't many safe situations out there to become transparent to. I sense strength here.

Those of you who are going through the though stuff like myself can know that as you get built up, so do I and vice-versa.

Be encouraged. Know who you are in Christ. Know that you are loved.

Please convo me if you need prayer or if you feel lead to pray for me. It works both ways, like I said.

Hello everyone !!

I'm a 40 something year old female that's looking for love....... I find it a bit difficult finding my way to the boards from my home site but tonite I had managed to find it again........LOL

I live near the Seattle area and want to be more envolved with this site; after all I'm paying to be here.

I hope that by posting on the boards from time to time will expose me to men that EH don't send to me that may take an interest.
I look foward to reading and posting with you all.

Thanks, idocare
