I just registered on this site very recently. About twenty minutes and i am still trying to figure this out.:scratch: So i wanted to hurry and post something so i can get into the swing of things. So here i go...
I live in Missouri, always have infact.:sleep: I am a Junior at SMS and a fairly new Christian about three years. I am 22 and make school my life most of the time. When i have free time i like to go bowling, play pool, or do anything else that is actively social. I am studying to be a psychologist. Which pretty much means i am going to be in school till about thirty in order to complete my doctoral degree. Anyway i hope i am doing this whole posting thing correctly. If not i would appreciate if someone would give me some hints. Thanx in advance and :amen:

Hello there fellow singles...hows everyone doing today? In reading the previous posts...though admitadly not all (or I'd be crosseyed right now), I noticed there are many more single gals than guys. Would you all say that's true? Or is it only the girls who want to share their info..?

Anyway...here's just a little bit about me.

Name: Dawn
Age: 38
Location: North Dakota
Occupation: secretary - office assistant
Denomination: Pentecostal - Assembly of God/Non-denominational
Ministry involvement: music, administration
Fav. Bible translation: NIV
Fav. scripture: Philippians 3:12-14
Fav. color: green
Fav. flower: roses and daisies
Fav. hobby: reading

I'm a christian trekkie..yes, there is such a thing. ;) I'm a science fiction nut...star trek is my favorite followed closely by star wars and then lord of the rings. I've been a moderator on a couple of star trek forums, though I've had to give it up because it's a real time killer.

I've come here to meet other christians and specifically to this singles area to see if there is anyone else with the same interests I have.

I look forward to talking to you all!

Take care and God bless,
Dawn
