At the moment most of the social groups are 'on hold' until new people volunteer to co-ordinate some activities.  We are able to assist some volunteers to get started and we encourage people to share the work with others to make it easy.  Please contact us if you are prepared to organise even just one activity.  For example you may like to simply arrange to meet other CFF members in your area for coffee to discuss the interest in other social activities.

AUCKLAND

Currently there is no Auckland co-ordinator. Thanks to a new member, in August a group enjoyed a short walk in the Waitakeres followed by lunch at the Elevation Cafe.

On Saturday 11 September people are encouraged to meet at St Heliers for lunch followed by a walk.

WAIKATO/BAY OF PLENTY

Very special thanks to the previous co-ordinator who had been actively involved in organising CFF outings for almost four years for CFF members in the Waikato and Bay of Plenty region.  She has stepped down now from group leadership. 

WELLINGTON

In  September a $15 Saturday lunch at Fishermans Table is planned. 

It is a great way to meet up with others and form new friendships.  We encourage you to support this.

We are always willing to send out other notices and you are encouraged to be pro active in your membership.

CHRISTCHURCH

It is good news that after a break of a year we now have a group co-ordinator for the Canterbury region.

Christchurch members have still been meeting this year.   Meeting up with others in a small group situation is a great way to widen your network of single Christian friends.

In June there was a walk to the birdhide and around Lake Ellesmere Reserve, followed by a cafe visit and in July a DVD and dessert evening.

Saturday Events Coming Up:

4 September -  a walk around the new Pegasus township followed by a cafe visit.

23 October  - a  shared meal.

13 November - Travis Wetlands walk.

OTHER EVENTS (from the archives!)

CAMP - CHRISTCHURCH SHOW WEEKEND Nov. 2009
There was a successful mini-camp weekend open to all single Christians with our normal 'Single and Significant' focus at Glenburn Youth Lodge in South Canterbury (near Geraldine).

Comments from happy campers:

• "Thanks very much for organising the camp. It was a lot of fun and it was good to just be able to meet with other Christians in a non-threating way without expectations. Good to relax away from home as well."
• "I really appreciated the group times/teaching and the fun times we had getting to know everyone.  It was a great bunch of people.
  We really enjoyed the time at camp and I was a little sad to leave.  Hopefully we will be able to make it to some future events in Christchurch, as the camp made me realise how much I have been missing out by not having many other Christian singles to socialise with."
