Mission Statement

The International Singles Service Team is a global outreach ministry, connecting single disciples in the body of Christ to GOD and each other. We welcome and affirm adult disciples who are either single by choice or by circumstance as complete persons.

Our goal is to provide places of belonging in authentic, Christ-centered communities which glorify GOD and share the love of Christ. We promote opportunities for national and international unity between disciples, service to others using our talents, growth through discipleship and dynamic fellowship.
